ysgwyd in context

Yn ystod yr wythnosau diwethaf, rydw i wedi gwenu, ysgwyd fy mhen, wedi crio a chwerthin yn uchel wrth gofio am ein sgyrsiau ni.

These last few weeks, I have smiled, shaken my head, cried and laughed out loud whilst remembering our conversations.

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.
