content on website
Annwyl Olygydd / Dear Editor
I am a translator working in Welsh and English, and am writing to express
my extreme disappointment at the standard of Welsh on your website. This
is not acceptable on a national site such as yours; even the reference to
'the government' itself is misspelt every time - 'gwasanaethau'r
lywodraeth' - any recognised, professional translator knows that the letter
"ll" does not mutate into "l" after the definite article, "'r" in this
case. This is just one example of many other errors that are offensive to a
Welsh-speaker; even those with no grasp of the rules of Welsh grammar.
Could you therefore ensure that you withdraw the Welsh version and send the
English text to be translated again, by a recognised translator, based in
Wales. If you contact Cymdeithas Cyfieithwyr Cymru (Society of Welsh
Translators), you can get a directory of the Society's members, who have
been recognised either through an examination process or as associates.
Their address is: Bryn Menai, Ffordd Caergybi, Bangor, Gwynedd LL57 2JA
Phone: 01248 371839 or visit their website at www.cyfieithwyr.cymru.org
They are also fully endorsed by the Welsh Language Board, run by the
government in Wales.
Diolch yn fawr/thank you.
Yn gywir/Yours sincerely
