<9402220407.AA07917@tornado.mcrc.mot.com> I don't have Roger's permission, but I thought I'd post a few exercises for practice on Lesson 2. Some of these exercises assume that you have a Welsh-English dictionary. (If there's a favorable response, I may try posting exercises for later lessons, as well.) You can mail your responses to me for correction (not grading...). LESSON 2: MUTATIONS Exercise 1. Give the soft mutation for the following words: a. man b. llwyd c. dal d. castell e. chwipio f. gweld g. ta+n h. helynt i. rhaglen j. cwmpas k. fferm l. llais m. dysgu n. cysgu o. gwasgu p. sychu q. bore r. tyngu s. machlud t. eira Exercise 2. Give the nasal mutation for the words from exercise 1. Exercise 3. Give the aspirate mutation for the words from exercise 1. Exercise 4. Give the dictionary form of the following (possibly) mutated words (you'll want a Welsh-English dictionary for this exercise). Note: in practice, finding words in the dictionary is easier than this exercise, because the context will give you an idea of which mutation is present, which strongly limits the number of possibilities that need to be checked. a. lyn b. lanio c. nrws d. hymyl e. nghlwm f. ddo+l g. cwrs h. restr i. chaws j. fasged k. fy l. si%o m. ngwraig n. ferch o. fflam p. thad q. mrawd r. gwpan s. mhlant t. phys u. chwech v. rhimyn w. wisg x. rannu y. dri z. nhad
