Pun

Mwysair

Excuse the pun

Esgusodwch y mwyseirio

Pardon the pun , but it is time to slay this sacred cow

Mae'n bryd cael gwared ar y siboleth hwn

Peter Black : Thank you for that , despite the appalling pun

Peter Black : Diolch am hynny , er gwaetha'r gair mwys ofnadwy

If I may put it like this -- excuse the pun -- is it worth the gamble ?

Os caf ei roi fel hyn -- maddeuwch y mwysair -- a yw'n werth mentro ?

We are only ever as good as the weakest link -- excuse the pun -- and we must consider this seriously

Bydd pobl bob amser yn ein barnu ar yr agwedd wannaf , a rhaid inni ystyried hyn o ddifrif

Sue Essex : I suppose that that pun was accidental rather than intended , but it is an interesting point

Sue Essex : Mae hynny'n bwynt diddorol

Eighty-six per cent of people have said that they have no appetite -- again , excuse the pun -- for GM foods

Mae 86 y cant o bobl wedi nodi nad ydynt am fwyta bwydydd GM

There are organisations in Wales , such as the WDA , that have huge reservoirs -- excuse the pun -- of knowledge , skills and expertise

Ceir sefydliadau yng Nghymru , fel y WDA , sydd â chronfeydd -- esgusodwch y gair mwys -- o wybodaeth , sgiliau ac arbenigedd mawr

I also welcome the opportunity provided by this debate to inform Members of recent developments in the field of GM crops -- pardon the pun

Croesawaf y cyfle hefyd a roddwyd gan y ddadl hon i hysbysu Aelodau am ddatblygiadau diweddar ym maes cnydau GM -- maddeuwch imi am y mwysair

The UK Labour Government's commitment to prioritising heating provision is also evident in its continuing the payment of the winter fuel allowance , which has been warmly received -- pardon the pun -- and increased year-on-year

Mae ymrwymiad Llywodraeth Lafur y DU i roi blaenoriaeth i'r ddarpariaeth gwresogi hefyd yn amlwg yn ei benderfyniad i barhau i dalu'r lwfans tanwydd gaeaf , a gafodd dderbyniad cynnes -- maddeuwch y mwysair -- ac sydd wedi cynyddu o flwyddyn i flwyddyn

We have heard about the gulf in participation between men and women and we need -- if you will pardon the pun -- to create a more level playing field between the sports in which men and women usually participate

Yr ydym wedi clywed am y bwlch cyfranogiad rhwng menywod a gwrywod ac mae angen inni -- maddeuwch y gair mwys -- greu maes chwarae mwy gwastad rhwng y chwaraeon y mae gwrywod a menywod , at ei gilydd , yn ymgymryd â hwy

Alun Ffred Jones : Briefly , all the concerns raised today are legitimate but , if you excuse the pun , if we do not take the bull by the horns in this matter , we could end up doing nothing , and that is not an option

Alun Ffred Jones : Yn fyr , mae'r holl bryderon a fynegwyd heddiw'n rhai dilys ond , os na chydiwn yn y danadl yn y mater hwn , gallem gyflawni dim yn y pen draw ac ni allwn fentro hynny

How is the broadband taskforce progressing , and , if you will pardon the pun , is it on line to deliver its targets ? We have heard much about the regional innovative broadband support project , or RIBS , ensuring that everyone in Wales has access to at least first-generation broadband

Sut mae'r tasglu band eang yn datblygu , ac a yw ar y trywydd iawn i gyrraedd ei dargedau ? Clywsom lawer am y prosiect cymorth band eang arloesol rhanbarthol , neu RIBS , sy'n sicrhau y gall pawb yng Nghymru fanteisio ar o leiaf genhedlaeth gyntaf band eang

Alun Cairns : Is it not the case that the wind-up of CBDC is costing more than it need cost the Welsh taxpayer , partly because of the machinations between the Assembly's Executive and the Labour leader of Cardiff council , Russell Goodway ? Russell Goodway could hold the Assembly over a barrage -- [ Laughter . ] Forgive the pun

Alun Cairns : Onid yw'n wir bod diddymu CDBC yn costio mwy na'r angen i'r trethdalwr yng Nghymru , yn rhannol oherwydd y cynllwynio rhwng Gweithrediaeth y Cynulliad ac arweinydd Llafur cyngor Caerdydd , Russell Goodway ? Gallai Russell Goodway ddal y Cynulliad dros forglawdd -- [ Chwerthin . ] Maddeuwch y mwysair

Forgive the pun , but will you assure me that you are tracking how Railtrack is spending the £500 ,000 allocated to it to upgrade the north Wales line , which it has failed to spend because it has not yet put that work in place ? Will you assure me that you will track how that money is spent and ensure that that money , which was given to Railtrack for a specific and much needed purpose , is not used for something else ?

Maddeuwch y mwyseiri ; ond a allwch fy sicrhau eich bod yn tracio sut y mae Railtrack yn gwario'r £500 ,000 a ddyrannwyd iddo er mwyn gwella lein gogledd Cymru , nad yw wedi'i wario am nad yw wedi dechrau'r gwaith eto ? A allwch fy sicrhau y byddwch yn edrych i weld sut y gwarir yr arian hwnnw ac y byddwch yn sicrhau na chaiff yr arian , a roddwyd i Railtrack am bwrpas penodol ac angenrheidiol , ei ddefnyddio am rywbeth arall ?

Carwyn Jones : I cannot compete at the Olympic level of punning at which Rod Richards competes , but I would like to see John Prescott and Rod Richards together -- I am sure that we would all pay to watch that

Carwyn Jones : Ni allaf gystadlu â gallu Rod Richards i ddefnyddio geiriau awgrymog , ond hoffwn weld John Prescott a Rod Richards gyda'i gilydd -- yr wyf yn sicr y byddem i gyd yn talu i weld hynny

Sue Essex : If we were ever to give out awards in the Assembly , then I would give you a gold star for puns , Alun

Sue Essex : Pe baem byth yn dyfarnu gwobrau yn y Cynulliad , byddwn yn rhoi seren aur ichi am eiriau mwys , Alun

It is encouraging to note that Wales , as Glyn has already said -- or should I say punned -- is out of the starting blocks on this subject , with increased demand from girls for participation in traditionally male-dominated sports such as rugby and soccer

Calonogol yw nodi , fel y mae Glyn eisoes wedi dweud -- neu fwyseirio y dylwn ddweud -- fod Cymru eisoes wedi cychwyn yn y ras ar y mater hwn , gyda galw cynyddol gan ferched am gael cymryd rhan mewn chwaraeon fel rygbi a phêl-droed a chwaraeir gan ddynion yn bennaf yn draddodiadol
