Ask Dr Gramadeg: Bod yn yr Amodol: Byddwn, Byddai & Byddet / The conditional form of Bod – Parallel.cymru: Cylchgrawn digidol Cymraeg dwyieithog

Dyma'r Amodol Cryno. sef, ffordd arall o fynegi'r Amodol Cwmpasog (hynny yw, 'Amodol Bod + yn traethiadol + berfenw'). Gadewch i ni adolygu'r Amodol Cwmpasog yn gyntaf.

Amodol cwmpasog ('Long-form of the Conditional') - Amodol 'bod' + yn traethiadol + berfenw (+ gweddill y frawddeg)

I would go                         Byddwn i’n mynd
It would do you good    Byddai fe’n gwneud lles i ti
She would come               Byddai hi’n dod
You would get a shock    Byddet ti’n cael sioc

Ar lafar yn ne Cymru o leiaf, gyda berfau arfreolaidd ('dod, mynd, cael, gwneud'), bydd pobl yn defnyddio'r Amodol Cryno yn hytrach na'r Amodol Cwmpasog. Byddan nhw's ychwanegu terfyniadau'r Amodol at fôn y ferf, hynny yw, bôn + '-wn i / -et ti / -ai fe/hi / -en ni / -ech chi / -en nhw'

Beth yw'r bôn i bob berf afreolaidd?

It is possible to express phrases such as the ones below, using the verb to be (in the conditional tense) + yn + verb:

Bod + yn + verb (+ the rest of the sentence)

I would go Byddwn i’n mynd.
It would do you good Byddai fe’n gwneud lles i ti.
She would come Byddai hi’n dod.
You would get a shock Byddet ti’n cael sioc.

In south Wales it is more normal to use the short forms of the conditional tense with the irregular verbs - mynd, dod, cael, gwneud - in everyday speech.

The conditional endings -wn i, -et ti, -ai fe/hi, -en ni, -ech chi, -en nhw are added to the roots:

Yn lle dweud – Byddwn i’n mynd - I would go
Yr Amodol Cryno - Elwn i - I would go

Yn lle dweud – Byddai fe’n gwneud lles i ti - It would do you good
Yr Amodol Cryno – ’Nelai fe les i ti - It would do you good

Yn lle dweud – Byddai hi’n dod - She would come
Yr Amodol Cryno – Delai hi - She would come

Yn lle dweud - Byddet ti’n cael sioc - You would have a shock
Yr Amodol Cryno – Gelet ti sioc - You would have a shock

Cofiwch mai'r sain allweddol ar lafar yw 'e' yn yr Amodol:

-wn i wedi'i hynganu fel -en i
-ai fe/hi wedi'i hyngau fel -e fe/hi

So instead of saying - Byddwn i’n mynd I would go
The short way is used - Elwn i I would go

Instead of saying - Byddai fe’n gwneud lles i ti It would do you good
The short way is used - ’Nelai fe les i ti It would do you good

Instead of saying - Byddai hi’n dod She would come
The short way is used - Delai hi She would come

Instead of saying - Byddet ti’n cael sioc You would have a shock
The short way is used - Gelet ti sioc You would have a shock

The same pronunciation rules apply as with all the conditional tenses. The key sound is ‘e’:
-wn i pronounced as -en i
-ai fe/hi pronounced as -e fe/hi

Er mywn ffurfio gosodiadau negyddol, byddwn ni'n ychwanegu ‘Ddim’ (ac yn treiglo'n feddal lle y bydd yn bosibl), e.e.

Elen ni - We would go
Elen ni ddim - We would not go

Delen ni - We would come
Ddelen ni ddim - We would not come

Gelen ni - We would have (Sylwch ar y 'treiglad meddal sefydlog' yma!)
Gelen ni ddim - We would not have (Mae'r ferf 'Gelen' eisoes wedi'i threiglo'n feddal!)
