Byddwn ni hefyd yn croesawu atebion i gwestiynau fel hyn:
“Any chance of sending a scan of the postcards or explaining what the various things are, e.g. what sort of fountain – Victorian drinking fountain, pub, water shooting into the air sort of fountain? Is Caerwys Hill a street name, or an actual hill?”
Diolch,
Ann

Subject: AR FRYS - lleoedd yng Nghaerwys
‘Rwyf newydd dderbyn y neges isod oddi wrth ffrind, ac mae’n amlwg bod ‘na frys mawr am ateb. Mae *cyfieithu* enwau’r lleoedd yn ddigon hawdd, ond beth os bydd enwau Cymraeg gwahanol ar rai ohonyn’ nhw? Mi wnawn ni’r gorau y gallwn i ddarganfod ar frys, ond os oes ‘na rywun yn y cylch sy’n ‘nabod yr ardal mi fyddai’n help mawr.
Llawer o ddiolch,
Ann
“I’m getting some postcards of old images of Caerwys printed for the Caerwys Historical Society, and have picked up the proofs today, only to realise that the captions on the front and text on the back aren’t bilingual. I know, shame on me! To be fair, I’m only supposed to be dealing with the printing, and the captions have been added by someone else, but I’m still very annoyed with myself.
I think this delay will mean that we won’t have the postcards ready for Easter, but they have to be right.
Could you assist with the translation?
Captions on the front of the 5 postcards are:
The Fountain, Afonwen
Caerwys Hill
Institute Corner, Caerwys
Caerwys High Street
The Cross, Caerwys”
