#### Usage notes

* In formal Welsh, the contraction 'i is a valid form of ei found after mostly functional vowel-final words. In colloquial Welsh, ei is often contracted to 'i after almost any vowel-final word.
* Pronomial 'i (and ei) can occur before any verbal noun. Before a verb, pronomial 'i is found only in formal language after certain vowel-final preverbal particles, such as fe, a and y. After certain vowel-final preverbal particles, such as ni, na, oni and pe, -s is used instead.
* After the preposition i (“to”), the contraction changes to i’w.
