"egwyl" in context
Yn yr egwyl cyn i ni fynd ar yr awyr, roedd Hefin wedi bod yn dangos lluniau i mi o'i ferched yn chwarae mewn pwll padlo yr oedd yn falch iawn ei fod wedi eu prynu iddyn nhw.
In the break before we went on air, Hefin had been showing me photographs of his daughters playing in a paddling pool that he was very pleased that he had bought them.
