That's Birmingham you dumb ass. We pronounce reed as reed.
I could quite easily hurl you off Team Sandpaper for that racial slur against me.
Where are you from anyway. You're probably a Cockney. I hate Cockneys
I don't live here any more.

No it's not - it's two words stuck together: 'Yr Wyddfa' - which is the Welsh name for Snowdon.

I don't mean rugby with kevlar armour that stops every 10 seconds, either.

Re: yrwyddfa
wy
There are actually two versions of this diphthong: a rising version (stress on the "y"; the "w" is consonantal) and a falling one (stress on the "w"; the "y" is consonantal). Examples: "gw+ydd" (goose) is pronounced GOOH-eethe (falling); "gwy+dd" (trees) is pronounced GWEETHE (rising).
dd
Like "th" in English "the", never as in "think". Example: "gwy+dd".

It's actually two words.
Yr Wyddfa:
Yr -> pronounced as urrrr
Wy -> Oi (as in OI! Nutter!)
dd -> pronounced like th in 'the' not as in 'think'
fa -> pronounced as though its 'var'
so it's sort of like saying:
urr - Oi-th-var

Re: yrwyddfa
Being that I'm not Welsh I was pretty close, I guess. I can only just get my tongue around Betwys Y Coed: pronounced "betoos i coid"?
