Welsh Newspapers On Line: BBC and Online Library

Welsh love spoons.


Problem
You went to Wales and/or are going back soon. How do you find out news about Welsh?
How do you practise reading Welsh?
How do you find the latest travel news, restaurants, discount offers, opening times?

Answers
Welsh news in English:
http://www.walesonline.co.uk

News in Welsh from BBC
http://www.bbc.co.uk/cymrufyw

Click on the word VOCAB and up pops this page explaining how to get translations

The BBC news site has news about Wales. It has presumably been there all along, but I had not noticed it. Go to the UK section and you will see a choice of regions underneath the red banner across the top.

Stories
I was looking back at my posts on Welsh and saw that I had the word newspaper but no link to a newspaper! That was quickly remedied.

To find a list of Welsh newspapers in either English or Welsh go to:
http://newspapers.library.wales
You can then click on Browse newspaper titles and pick only English or only Welsh.

Translation
translate.goolge.com
