Ie
"Yes" in Welsh 路 say it like yay

The most natural way to say "Yes" in Welsh is Ie. Tap the speaker above to hear it, then say it back out loud. That is the fastest way to make it stick.

Other ways to say it

Oes
used to confirm existence or availability
Ydw
used in response to a question about oneself

When to use it

Use 'Ie' when you want to agree or confirm something. It is suitable in both casual and formal conversations. You can use it in response to questions or statements.

Say it out loud, get corrected

Reading it is not the same as saying it. Practice "Yes" and thousands more with an AI coach that listens.

Common mistake
Learners often confuse 'Ie' with 'Oes' when confirming existence.

Vocabulary you only read fades fast. Vocabulary you say out loud sticks. Hear Ie, repeat it a few times, then use it in a real sentence. SPAIKING lets you practice exactly that, speaking Welsh with a coach that corrects your pronunciation in real time. You can start with two free conversations.
