[Facts] Anywhere I can listen to Welsh names?
I know of Irish sites, Turkish sites, Swedish sites, and Dutch sites that I can hear names pronunced at. But no Welsh names.The reason I'm asking is I'm trying to figure out how to pronunce Mair, but the pronunication listed doesn't make sense to me. (MIER) It's one syllable, but I can't see those sounds pronunced as one.

Mair is one syllable. My + rolled r. Just bear in mind: one syllable only. There is a tendency to pronounce it like "Maya" and that is incorrect.

The best source is:http://www.theuniversityofjoandeserrallonga.com/kimro/amryw/1_enwau/enwau_bedydd_cymraeg_geiriadur_1_1265e.htmThe information is reliable and there is the transcription in IPA and figurated pronunciation, too.A very good site.
