"echrydus" in context
Fe fydd yr enw yn air mwys—'Hefin's Gate' efallai, 'Knocking on Hefin's Door', neu y gorau oll, 'David yn trechu Goliath', gan y byddai bob amser yn ceisio trechu'r anghenfil echrydus hwnnw sef angen ac anwybodaeth.
It'll be a play on his name—perhaps 'Hefin's Gate', 'Knocking on Hefin's Door', or, best of all, 'David defeats Goliath', as he always sought to defeat that wretched monster of want and ignorance.
