Cy: Mae'r ľhwyr ddod yn osgeiddig dros ben Llŷn, a bu'r eira'n cael ei orwedd fel pleden meddal dros y diroedd traddodiadol.
En: The evening arrived gracefully over Llŷn, and the snow lay like a soft blanket over the traditional lands.

En: At the Amgueddfa Genedlaethol Hanes Sain Ffagan (National Museum of History at St Fagans), the atmosphere was warm and filled with festive excitement.

Cy: Roedd yr arogl o goed pinwydd a chestynnau rhost yn cuddio yn yr awyr fain gan ddal i fagu eiliad hudol.
En: The smell of pine trees and roasted chestnuts hovered in the crisp air, capturing a magical moment.

Cy: Yn y siop gofrodd, y maint o bobl yn pwyso ffroenau ar ffenestri, golau'r Nadolig arlyn, yn rhodion a disgyn ar addurniadau traddodiadol.
En: In the souvenir shop, people pressed their noses to the windows, the Christmas lights twinkling and reflecting on the traditional decorations.

En: He relaxed, knowing that time was limited, and any opportunity to find the ideal gift was on the horizon.

En: "I will help you," said Eleri with enthusiasm, shining like a star.

En: They moved along the cobbled paths, remnants of eras past close by.

Cy: Roeddent o fewn'r gweithdai gwnïo, lle'r oedd pob cŵn enghreifftiau golleuir, ac yn fewnol, fe ddaethon nhw at ddarn o olrhefel.

En: There, located beneath an old lintel arch, was an artificial replica of an ancient artifact of Welsh descent.

Cy: Roedd gan llyged Dafydd synnwyr — ei gofalu a'i bwysygoldebau.
