Colloquial Welsh Morphology - Prepositions

Prepositions

In Welsh, prepositions frequently change their form when followed by a pronoun. These are known as inflected prepositions. Most of them, such as dan, follow the same basic pattern:

		Singular	Plural
First Person		dana i	danon ni
Second Person		danat ti	danoch chi
Third Person	Masculine	dano fe/fo	danyn nhw
	Feminine	dani hi

There is some dialectal variation, particularly in the first and second person singular forms. In some places one may hear dano i, danot ti, or danach chi.

The majority of prepositions trigger the soft mutation.
