Ass o brâs an gwens e'n nos! E'n jedh, ma whath gwens crev a-dhia'n Noor. Gwens Arctyk ew yeyn ha tydn. Ma todnow brâs ha ma mir a ergh dhe'n scroff. Gwens crev ell movya taclow poos. My a glowas an nowodhow war an radyo. Ma lies gwedhen codhys war vorrow. Kellys ew an provians tredan gen meur a bobel. Kellys ew gen agan kentrevogyon aga fellgowser ha'n gwias.

Ma va en baywedhen ha cabmys ew üdn trig. Ev a aras bush bras a gesarednow dhe godha e'n vorr.    


  








What a big wind there was in the night! In the day, there is still a strong wind from the North. An Arctic wind is cold and biting. There are big waves and the foam looks like snow. A strong wind can shift heavy things. I heard the news on the radio. There are lots of trees fallen on roads. Many people have lost the electricity supply. Our neighbours have lost their telephone and the internet. A branch fell on their shed and that brought their phone line down. Our line is intact, in one piece. However, the trampoline is something else - it has suffered. It is in a bay tree and one support is bent. It dropped a load of hailstones on its way.

Ma hedna ow menya moy liednow ha dilhas rag an jynn-gòlhy avorow. There is no limit to bad luck, so it seems. Am I pessimistic? Mishaps come in threes, but I have had more than three disasters already. What is the problem today? Our daughter is ill and she can't collect her children. I must entertain them. We played hangman many times, and chess and cards. What do sick children like to eat? Perhaps a few grapes. But that was not a very good idea. Eleven o'clock, the lit...

Will I lose my right mind soon? What is next? The first boy was sick again half an hour before midnight, and the second boy was sick twelve hours later. Lots of washing. The washing machine worked non-stop for many hours.
