geni in context
Cawsom ein geni yn ysbyty glowyr Caerffili, tua 10 mlynedd ar wahân, ac er i mi gael fy magu yn Ystrad Mynach, cafodd Hefin ei fagu i fyny'r ffordd ym Mhenpedairheol.
We were both born in Caerphilly miners' hospital, roughly 10 years apart, and whereas I grew up in Ystrad Mynach, Hefin was raised up the road in Penpedairheol.
