  • S4C Authority Bulletin - July 2004
    S4C Authority Bulletin - July 2004 OPEN MEETING – TREGARON The Authority held an Open Meeting on Thursday, 22 July 2004, at the Rhiannon Celtic Centre, Tregaron. 45 members of the public were present. The meeting was chaired by Elan Closs Stephens, Chair of S4C, and the Chief Executive, Huw Jones, and the Producer of Children’s Programmes, Angharad Garlick, also took part in the discussion. Amongst the matters discussed were: Sport A member of the audience expressed a wish to see greater Welsh language coverage being given to minor sports – bowls, cycling, cross-country running, athletics, tennis, and it was said that there was also a need for a programme on soccer in Wales such as Gôl. It was said that although rugby was fine, there was too much of it. Huw Jones explained that S4C was anxious to obtain rights to broadcast other sports where they were available. However, rugby was an example of where S4C was able to increase its audience. Soccer had similar potential and S4C was aiming to broadcast more soccer over the coming year. It was, however, more difficult to make similar pledges in relation to the minor sports. It was hoped to be able to give greater coverage to rallying, and discussions were ongoing in respect of some other areas of sport. However, the Channel was aware that viewers expected sports coverage to be exciting and of a high standard. S4C would seek to pursue the rights to broadcast such sports when they became available. Linguistic Standards It was said that S4C needed to take great care in relation to linguistic standards, particularly when children were likely to be watching.

It also provides the required information to demonstrate how we have complied with our Welsh Language Standards during the year – a statutory duty for the College. This report reflects on activity during the 2019-20 academic year, with data taken from August 1st 2019 and July 31st 2020. More learners studied a Welsh or bilingual module as part of their course… In fact 1,435 learners in total!

We continued to embed Welsh language modules in all PGCE and Teaching Assistant courses, supporting a strong understanding of Welsh language requirements and the employability benefit for them and their future learners.

Oct. 2021 Style in the vernacular and on the radio: code-switching and mutation as stylistic and social markers in Welsh Myfyr Prys School of Linguistics and English language Bangor University PhD 2016 Abstract This thesis seeks to analyse two types of linguistic features of Welsh, code-switching and mutation, as sociolinguistic variables: features which encode social information about the speaker and/or stylistic meaning. Developing a study design that incorporates an analysis of code-switching and mutation in naturalistic speech has demanded a relatively novel methodological approach. The study combined a variationist analysis of the vernacular use of both variables in the 40-hour Siarad corpus (Deuchar 2014) with a technique that ranks radio programmes in order of formality through the use of channel cues and other criteria (Ball et al 1988).

  • Annual Report 2002 Doc 1A
    GWASANAETH RHAGLENNI CYMRAEG Drama Ein hamcan yw cynnig cyfres ddrama estynedig (tri chwarter awr neu awr o hyd) bob nos Sul ynghyd ag o leiaf un, os nad dwy, gyfres hanner awr yn ystod corff yr wythnos, yn ogystal ag ‘opera sebon’. Llwyddwyd eleni i gyflwyno arlwy oedd yn cyfuno’r newydd a’r traddodiadol, y dwys a’r ysgafn – gan gynnwys cyfresi newydd sbon ynghyd â nifer o gyfresi a oedd yn dychwelyd. Cyfres ffug wyddonol oedd Arachnid (Elidir) gyda chryfderau mawr o ran gwaith cyfrifiadurol gwreiddiol, cyfarwyddo llawn dychymyg a stori gymhleth ddifyr. Roedd yn braf edrych ar ddrama ‘sci-fi’ Gymraeg a oedd yn argyhoeddi. Cymhlethdodau bod yn wraig ifanc â dyheadau cyfoes tra’n byw yng nghefn gwlad yn wraig i weinidog, oedd canolbwynt y gyfres ddychmygus Fondue, Rhyw a Deinosors (HTV). Denodd ymateb a oedd yn pegynnu’r gynulleidfa gyda llawer yn ei mwynhau yn arw iawn tra oedd eraill yn wrthwynebus i’w chynnwys a’i harddull. Cafwyd cyfres ardderchog o Amdani (Nant) - sy’n seiliedig ar helyntion tîm rygbi merched - a ddenodd ymateb gwerthfawrogol dros ben. Dwy gyfres arall boblogaidd a ddychwelodd oedd Iechyd Da (Bracan), a oresgynnodd newidiadau gorfodol yn y cast sylfaenol yn llwyddiannus, a Talcen Caled (Nant) sy’n llwyddo i gynnwys cryn dipyn o hiwmor er gwaethaf y cefndir teuluol a chymdeithasol tywyll. Cyfres yn seiliedig ar nofel Marion Eames am y Crynwyr ym Meirionnydd yn yr ail ganrif ar bymtheg oedd Y Stafell Ddirgel (Llifon/HTV). Denodd ymateb ffafriol gan wylwyr yn enwedig wrth i’r gyfres fynd yn ei blaen, er efallai nad oedd y gyfres drwyddi draw mor llwyddiannus â dramâu cyfnod eraill o’r un stabl.
