Hmmm! That might be a very useful phrase Garry...I think if I try it the next time I'm in Wales there are only two possible results:-
a) I'll get my face slapped.
b) I'll have a lot of fun

Mmm, dw i'n meddwl rhywun wrth InterTran yn cymryd i'r pisio. Mae on digrif, er hynny.
Actually a good and amusing game with online translators is to feed one of the great speeches (I've used Churchill's "We Will Fight Them On The Beaches" and Chaimberlain's Declaration of War) into Babelfish, translating from English to say French, then the French result into say German, then the German result into another language, then back to English. Because babelfish and other online translators can't interpret and can only translate literally, the errors get translated into sometimes quite bizarre results. Give it a try and see what you get, it'll end up looking like a set of instructions for some Chinese flatpack.
Oh and the phrase you really need in Blaenau Ffestiniog is:
"Dw i isiau mynd i'r gwely efo eich defaid" ("dwee-sha meend ear gwelli evor ayk devade")
You won't be disappointed.
