I love this app!
Say Something in Welsh is phenomenal approach to language learning. I’m just getting started, but I’ve listened to the first lesson several times and already feel like I can show off some useful phrases. It’s obvious that in no time, I’ll be adding more vocabulary to those phrases and have many options for sentences that I can actually use when I visit Wales. Welsh is such a musical language, and the host of this podcast has a lovely voice and cadence. I find myself wanting to turn it on when I’m doing housework or exercising or driving in the car, just to hear the lovely speakers. I can’t recommend this enough! And I can’t wait to learn Welsh.

£10 A MONTH
Used to love this, but unfortunately you’ve put up a paywall and are charging £10 a month for every lesson except the first one.
This is extremely expensive in the middle of a cost of living crisis, so unfortunately I will now be not learning Welsh because I can’t afford £10 a month, especially as existing content was already available for free, and now I can’t even see lessons I previously listened to.
I understand that there are costs involved but TEN POUNDS a month! To access content I already had.

No contest - the best way to learn Welsh
Highly recommend this method. And the delivery via the App is the best I’ve seen. Straightforward interface. Download the challenges for offline use. Proceed at your own pace. Listening practice tunes your ear to the sounds of spoken Welsh. Access the Forum to ask questions and share experiences. Wonderful support from staff and other learners.

Awesome
I’ve just finished the first challenge, and it was great! I feel like I’ve learned a lot, very unintrusive manner of teaching, bravo
Great Fun
Always wanted to learn a bit of Welsh. Only got the App today and having a lot of fun with it. Can already say a few things. The style of teaching is great. Even my 23 year old daughter was joining in in the car today. Highly recommend
Good
I think this is a great app for learning Welsh, there are some differences to how I grew up speaking it. I sometimes get confused between regions, especially for words like ‘ey-shoh’ or as I know it ‘ey-shy’.
Why the high subscription?!
I started using this last year and it was brilliant, have come back to it and couldn’t work out why I now can’t access any levels and it’s because it’s now £10 per month subscription. Gutted and will be deleting.
Tis sad all level one is not free anymore
I am a long time subscriber to SSIW. The first 25 lessons used to be free. The team do need money to get things to work and to live. If you want to learn to speak Welsh this course will do it, it really works. If you have problems get on the forum and chat, others will have had exactly the same problems. If you really do not have money ask SSIW to help. Once you can say things in Welsh you need to get out (or online)and use the language that’s how you continue to learn. Once you can talk then get some Gareth King grammar books and learn how to write. One final point, you do need to put in some work.

👋
This app is amazing!!!!
Brilliant!!!!
I can only highly recommend this small Welsh business doing soooo much for the Welsh language. I have learned so much in such a short time! Simply brilliant! Diolch yn fawr iawn!
Challenge 1 free only
I was loving this App through challenge 1, went to move on to challenge 2 and realised it’s a £10 per month subscription.
I can’t find any info here on the App Store telling me it’s a subscription service.
Sorry, £10pm is too much.
Maybe add a price to download all challenges in one go. ( But put the info in the App Store! )

I can’t believe they added subscription
I’ve had this app for years, have loved using it, and practicing and going back over previous lessons. I was devastated to open it and see you can now only access levels and such after the intro by paying £10 subscription a month!!!! Such a high subscription. I can’t believe they have made such an amazing resource unavailable now to so many people. It was one of the only free learning welsh resources available, and had joined the bandwagon of everything else, making as much money as possible, in the midst of a crisis when people have more time to now learn Welsh, but less money. A true shame! Clearly more interesting in earning money than spreading the Welsh language, although they will guise it as earning caption to spread the language. Ridiculous

This is amazing but tricky
It took me a few goes but I finally got my brain and my tongue to correspond and this might sound crazy but there is a serious delay (feels like 5 minutes!) there but the more I practice the shorter the delay gets and I give myself a pat on the back when I get a word correct!! 🤣

Amazing Teaching Material
I’ve been using this app for nearly two years. I don’t often rate apps, but when I saw this has less than 20 reviews, I was shocked. If you’re wondering whether or not to get it, just do it! They have a forum and community that are beginners or experienced. Everyone’s so helpful and are willing to help you!

Costs £10 per month
You get 1 lesson (about 30 mins) free, after that it’s £10 per month.
Absolutely fantastic
I hated learning Welsh when I was in school and had very little interest in it. As I’ve got older, I’ve wanted to learn Welsh out of interest and because it’s my heritage. I was put off by the thought of night school and then I discovered this app. In fact I’d seen the app mentioned and spoken about in various places and decided to give it a go. I’m so, so pleased that I did. I’m thoroughly enjoying the course and love the playful, relaxed approach to learning. None of the obsession with grammatical or technical niceties that you get in academic settings. The first 7 challenges are free which is a very generous amount of content for Ssiw to provide free of charge. Access to the whole course and content costs just £10 a month. I’m still on the free ones but I won’t hesitate to subscribe once I’ve completed them. I never expected learning Welsh to be so addictive or fun. If you can play a game on your phone or tablet you can definitely learn Welsh. Diolch o galon SSIW

If you want to learn welsh, this is it
The lessons are similar to old school language tapes: listen and repeat. They go at a nice pace with two speakers saying the words. You build a large working vocab pretty quickly, with a large number of free lessons. Definitely download it if you want to speak welsh
Anhygoel!
Os wych chi’n moyn dysgu sut i siarad yn Gymraeg, mae angen i chi gael yr app hwn!
Love it
This app is wonderful, it is clear and has great instructions so you know what to do. I love it. The bad thing is it takes almost half an hour to do it properly to begin with but it is still clear
