Planning to spend a day walking around like a weirdo trying to read Welsh signs out loud. My husband asked me how to say fuck off in Welsh (*). I don't know! (**) But I think I know how to spell it phonetically: Ffyc aff.
(*) he wasn't being rude to me, he was referring to a spider in the corner of the kitchen.
(**) any Welsh friends here who can enlighten us?

(Sorry, thought I’d sent this earlier, but it got stuck in drafts, so there’s some duplication here)

You can’t wrong with some Cymricised Anglo-Saxon. In the olden days of the Welsh web, the accepted spelling was somewhere between “ffac off” and “ffaaaaaaaac off”.

“Ffor ffyc sêc” has also been naturalised.

Some actual Welsh equivalents:

Cer i grafu! (Go and scratch)
Wfft i ti

This is excellent! Thanks!
