More Welsh Words: When? Going? Drink? Beer?

Problem
How do I recognize everyday Welsh words, vocabulary and verbs? Look for letters in common and make up phrases and sentences.

Answers
Pryd - when (My memory trigger - You PRoD him and ask when; PRYD Please, Richard, are You Drinking - When?)
m y n d - going (do you mynd, MiND out, move yourself, look where you are GOING and weNDing your way)
aros - waiting (AROund so long ROSes would grow)
yma - here - You are HERE in My Arms
rosari - rosary
yfed - drink (Why are you fed up with eating? Drink!)
cwrw - beer (look for the double letters CoR - OO, the crew are drinking BeeR)

WELSH - ENGLISH
aros - waiting
cwrw - beer
mynd - going
pryd - when
rosari - rosary
yfed - drink
yma - here
