Are you just starting out reading Welsh, and find yourself flummoxed by words which don't appear in a standard dictionary?

Based on the 10,000 most frequently used words in Welsh, they are listed in their various forms - mutated, feminine, plural, and different verb forms, with English synonyms and parts of speech to aid understanding. The words are arranged in the order of the English alphabet (which is not the same as the Welsh alphabet), and mutated words are highlighted in blue. You will also find initial guidelines on how to follow and understand Welsh text.
