    This need more welsh slang so here goes:
    Angen- means fowl or disgusting "She looks angen!"
    Apnnin - "Whats happening?" Classic example of welsh lazyness, often shortening words or combining 2 words into one.
    Boyo- Slang for boy, lad or mate. "Alright boyo"
    Butty- Pretty much used the same as boyo.
    Chopsing- If someone is being loud and/or argumentative, we might say "Stop chopsing!"
    Cwtch - cuddle
    Shut tap - last orders or closing time at a pub/bar.
    Tara - Bye

    Im quite sure i've dropped some more in conversation with syrin over the years, but i cant for the life of me think right now
