Oracy – Conversation & Opinions

Oracy is about communication, not perfection. Examiners look for clarity, range of opinion language, and the ability to keep a conversation going.

Useful opinion frames

• Dw i’n meddwl bod… • Yn fy marn i… • Dw i’n cytuno / anghytuno oherwydd… • Ar y llaw arall… • Un fantais / anfantais yw…

Keep the conversation alive

• Ask a return question • React to what you heard (wir?, difyr, o ddifrif?) • Give a reason after every opinion • If you forget a word, paraphrase – don’t freeze

Practice questions

1. Give two opinion phrases in Welsh.

2. How do you avoid a one-word answer?
