Telling the time
in Welsh is pretty simple really - as you'd say 'quarter past
three' in English, so you would in Welsh, although you couldn't
say 'three fortyfive - that would be 'quarter to four' instead.
The only other thing you need to remember is that some vigesimal
numbers are used instead of the equivalent decimal number:
12 - 'deuddeg'
instead of 'undeg dau'
15 - 'pymtheg' instead of 'undeg pump'
20 - 'ugain' instead of 'dauddeg', (note that it gains an
'h' after 'ar', becoming 'hugain')
