Council’s Welsh Language Annual Report now available/ Adroddiad Blynyddol ar yr Iaith Gymraeg bellach ar gael

CARMARTHENSHIRE County Council’s annual Welsh Language report for 2017/18 can now be seen on its website.

The report focuses on the second year of the implementation of the Welsh Language Standards.

It includes information about work that has been carried out not only to ensure compliance with the Standards but also to promote the Welsh language in the county.

Highlighted in the report is the work the council, in partnership with the County Strategic Forum, has done to produce learning resources, including a leaflet explaining the benefits of ‘Being bilingual‘ and a ‘Welsh with your kids – Give it a go!’ leaflet to help parents with simple sentences.

A number of council staff have been on Welsh language courses, and others are showing interest.

Cllr Peter Hughes Griffiths, executive board member for the development of the Welsh language, said: “This report provides a positive overview of our work in relation to the Welsh Language Standards and the promotion of the language. We do recognise that more can be done and our priorities for 2018/19 are available to view on our website.”

Adroddiad Blynyddol ar yr Iaith Gymraeg bellach ar gael

MAE Adroddiad Blynyddol 2017/2018 Cyngor Sir Caerfyrddin am y Gymraeg bellach ar gael ar ei wefan.

Mae’r adroddiad yn canolbwyntio ar yr ail flwyddyn o weithredu Safonau’r Gymraeg.

Ceir gwybodaeth yn yr adroddiad am y gwaith sydd wedi ei gyflawni nid yn unig i sicrhau cydymffurfiaeth â’r Safonau ond i hyrwyddo’r Gymraeg yn y sir.

Mae’r adroddiad yn tynnu sylw at y gwaith y mae’r Cyngor, ar y cyd â’r Fforwm Strategol Sirol, wedi ei gyflawni er mwyn cynhyrchu adnoddau dysgu sy’n cynnwys taflen yn egluro manteision ‘Bod yn ddwyieithog’ a thaflen ‘Cymraeg gyda’r plant – Rhowch gynnig arni’ sy’n cynorthwyo rhieni gyda brawddegau syml.

Mae nifer o staff y Cyngor wedi bod ar gyrsiau Cymraeg, ac mae nifer o staff eraill yn mynegi diddordeb. Nododd y Cynghorydd Peter Hughes Griffiths, yr Aelod Bwrdd Gweithredol sy’n gyfrifol am ddatblygu’r iaith Gymraeg,: “Mae’r adroddiad hwn yn rhoi trosolwg cadarnhaol o’n gwaith mewn perthynas â Safonau’r Gymraeg a hyrwyddo’r Iaith. Rydym yn cydnabod y gellir gwneud mwy ac mae ein blaenoriaethau ar gyfer 2018/19 ar gael i’w gweld ar ein gwefan.
