"brawychus" in context

Mae pob un ohonom yn cofio'r 5,500 pâr o welintons a osodwyd ar risiau'r Senedd—brawychus, oherwydd beth oeddent yn ei gynrychioli?

We all remember those 5,500 pairs of wellington boots lined up on the Senedd steps—haunting, because what do they stand for?

Diolch am godi hyn a rhannu eich sylwadau heddiw ar y trais brawychus hwn, yn ddigynsail i'w weld mewn cynifer o ffyrdd, sydd wedi ysgwyd y byd.

Thank you for raising this and sharing your comments today on this shocking violence, unprecedented to be seen in so many ways, that has shocked the world.

Rwy'n credu y dylai hynny ddigwydd yma yng Nghymru, oherwydd, yn sicr, ni all unrhyw beth fod yn fwy brawychus na chamu allan o fws i mewn i lôn fysiau, yn enwedig os na allwch chi weld beth sy'n digwydd.

I believe that that should come here to Wales, because, surely, nothing can be more alarming than stepping out of a bus into a bus lane, particularly if you can’t see what’s happening.
