Ac i ychwanegu at y dryswch, yn Iwerddon (ac eithrio ymhlith Unoliaethwyr),
gwell gan lawer yw dweud these islands yn hytrach na the British Isles, ac
ystyr an Bhretain Bheag, sef o'i gyfieithu yn llythrennol 'y Brydain
Fechan', yw 'Cymru'.

Esboniadau o’r termau Saesneg.

 

Great Britain

Great Britain is the largest island in Europe. "Great Britain" is the
collective name for the three countries of England, Scotland and Wales. It
also includes the small adjacent islands but it does not include the Channel
Islands and the Isle of Man.

 

The United Kingdom

The United Kingdom is made up of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. The
official name "United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland" came
into use in 1922 after the constitution of the Irish Free State (1922-1937),
the former name of the Republic of Ireland.  Therefore, the United Kingdom
of Great Britain, used to indicate the political union of England, Scotland
and Wales, was expanded, in the 20th century, to include Northern Ireland:
the "United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland" as it now appears
on passports.

 

The British Islands 

The expression "British Islands" has been defined in the Interpretation Act
1978 as meaning the United Kingdom, the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man.
The Republic of Ireland is not included in this definition.

 

The British Isles 

The expression "British Isles" is geographical and not political. They are a
group of islands off the northwest coast of Europe consisting of Great
Britain, the whole of Ireland, the Orkney and Shetland Islands, the Isle of
Man, the Inner and Outer Hebrides, the Isle of Wight, the Scilly Islands,
Lundy Island, the Channel Islands and many other smaller islands

 

Tarddiad yr enw “Great Britain” 

There are in fact two Britains: the island of Britain in the British Isles
and the land of Britain in France. In French these are known as Grande
Bretagne and Bretagne, in English as Great Britain and Brittany. The word
"Great" in this context has its old meaning of "big" as in "she was great
with child" or "Greater London"…  "Bretayne the grete" was used by
chroniclers as early as 1338, but it was not used officially until King
James I proclaimed himself "King of Great Britain" on 20 October 1604 to
avoid the more cumbersome title "King of England and Scotland".

Ia, ran'ny - oes yna wahaniaeth gweleidyddol rhwng Prydain, Prydain Fawr,
gwledydd Prydain, y Deyrnas Unedig/Gyfunol?? Mae'r rhestr wledydd sydd gan y
cyngor yn fy mhentre i yn yr Eidal yn gwahaniaethau rhwng Prydain Fawr a'r
Deyrnas Unedig - ydi'r naill yn cynnwys Gogledd Iwerddon a'r llall ddim? Fel
arfer does fawr o ots mae'n siwr gan mai defnydd llac ydi o.

UK =  DG / DU ?

Ar un o’m traethodau y bu disgwyl i mi i’w cynhyrchu wrth fynd drwy’r
brifysgol
ryw ddeugain mlynedd yn ôl, (ond na fedraf feddwl am ei ailgylchu drwy’r
fasged bapur hyd eto) mae gen i gofnod balch o lawysgrif un darlithydd tra
enwog a pharchus, sy’n parhau i belydru gyda phendantrwydd inc arholiadol o
goch, i fynnu nad cymwys defnyddio’r ymadrodd Teyrnas Gyfunol fel term
cyfystyr â Phrydain:  “Nid Unedig pob Cyfuniad: dydyw teyrnas wedi ei
chyfuno o is-ddarnau anghymharus ddim o reidrwydd yn unfrydol unedig!”
Meddylied!  Beth bynnag, pam ddim defnyddio ‘Prydain' ym mhob achlysur, a
rhoi diwedd ar yr hen gân acronymllyd yma?

Weithiau, mae'r acronym i fod yn cynnwys 'a Gogledd Iwerddon' hefyd.
