I found this web site it can describe mutations in a fairly easy way.

It does explain it well, I didn't realise that there were mutations although I had noticed that the words changed sometimes.
It's still daunting though!
Thanks,
Pauline.

Thanks, this is a big help. I was struggling to work out a family relationship to the head of the household and found it here.

It's a good list because it gives both North Wales Welsh and South Wales Welsh terms. I think I said before that grandfather and grandmotehr are Nain and Taid in North Wales and not those listed by colcot.

I think that there are significant differences in the language between north and south.   I recall a girl who joined my year in (a North Wales) secondary school and who was a fluent South Wales Welsh speaker, having to join the English -Welsh classes.

The mutations are the same though
