English: I will be switching to Welsh now. Dafydd Elis-Thomas has had to reprioritise his entire portfolio as a result of the current crisis and provide emergency funding to support the creative industries, sport and culture, as well as reassigning the work of whole agencies such as Cadw, which have had to close all of their sites. Now, in particular, I would like to update you on tourism, which is a foundation sector and is absolutely key to the Welsh economy. The sector was one of the first to be hit by the crisis and is among the worst affected. The support that is being provided to the sector by the Welsh Government has been appreciated, but we recognise that there is a long-term challenge facing this industry. And some within the sector are describing it as a 'three winter' challenge. We are in ongoing discussions with representatives of the tourism sector through the COVID-19 tourism taskforce. Ensuring consumer confidence, as well as securing community support for reopening, will be key. Our campaign 'Visit Wales. Later' has been crucial in trying to strike this sensitive balance on quite a difficult path. Major events also play a key role within tourism, and I want to manage expectations about restarting major events in Wales. However, I don't foresee any possibility that mass gatherings will return in the near future. In terms of the Welsh language, COVID-19 has reminded us of the importance of the relationship between technology and the language. It's clear now how reliant we are on technology so that we can continue to work, learn and communicate with family and friends. Cymraeg 2050 gives technology a central role, and therefore I am pleased to be able to announce today that Cysgliad will be available free of charge to individuals and businesses with fewer than 10 staff by the end of May. Cysgliad is a package that includes a dictionary as well as a Welsh spellchecker and a grammar checker, and it will assist all of us, I'm sure. But sometimes technology can be a barrier. For example, it's not possible to offer simultaneous translation in Microsoft Teams at present. I have written to Microsoft to ask them to develop this as a matter of urgency. Although the National Welsh Learning Centre has had to cancel every face-to-face Welsh lesson, the interest in online courses has dramatically increased. In just a week, over 3,000 new learners enrolled and 1,300 of those will start the course during this month. You will also have seen that we've provided financial support to the National Eisteddfod, and it was important, as the Eisteddfod faced serious financial challenges, that the Welsh Government was there to support this unique festival. The Urdd will host the first digital Eisteddfod, Eisteddfod T, during the Whitsun holiday, and continues to work with the Llamau charity to support vulnerable young people and families. In February, I launched a consultation on our policy for language transmission in the home, and I wish to announce now that I am to extend the consultation period until the autumn. I am aware of the importance of the Welsh language particularly in health and care, and I've therefore asked the health Minister to bear this in mind in particular in sensitive end-of-life situations during this difficult time. So, I'd like to finish by saying that I am extremely grateful to the Deputy Minister for all his co-operation and to all the staff members working within my portfolio, as well as all partners who have been collaborating with us, for responding in such a positive way in the face of the huge challenges that we're facing. I'm sure we will come through these dark times as different people, different organisations and a different country. But there is hope, there is light on the horizon, and it is important that we stand firm together to meet the challenges that still face us.
Welsh: Dwi i'n mynd i newid i'r Gymraeg. Mae Dafydd Elis-Thomas wedi gorfod ailflaenoriaethu ei bortffolio cyfan ef o ganlyniad i'r creisis presennol a darparu cyllid brys i gefnogi'r diwydiannau creadigol, chwaraeon a diwylliant, yn ogystal ag ailbennu gwasanaeth asiantaethau cyfan fel Cadw, sydd wedi gorfod cau pob un o'u safleoedd nhw. Nawr, yn benodol, hoffwn i eich diweddaru chi ar dwristiaeth, sy'n sector sylfaenol, ac yn gwbl allweddol i economi Cymru. Roedd y sector yn un o'r rhai cyntaf i gael eu taro gan yr argyfwng ac mae ymysg y rhai sydd wedi eu heffeithio waethaf. Mae'r cymorth sydd wedi ei roi i'r sector gan Lywodraeth Cymru wedi cael ei werthfawrogi, ond rŷn ni'n cydnabod bod yna sialens hirdymor sy'n wynebu'r diwydiant yma. Ac mae rhai o fewn y sector yn galw'r sialens yma yn sialens 'tri gaeaf'. Rŷn ni mewn trafodaethau parhaus gyda chynrychiolwyr y sector twristiaeth trwy dasglu twristiaeth COVID-19. Bydd sicrhau hyder cleientiaid, yn ogystal â sicrhau cefnogaeth y gymuned i ailagor, yn allweddol. Mae'n ymgyrch ni 'Hwyl Fawr. Am y Tro' neu 'Visit Wales. Later' wedi bod yn allweddol wrth inni geisio taro'r cydbwysedd sensitif yma ar lwybr sy'n eithaf anodd. Mae digwyddiadau mawr - major events - hefyd yn chwarae rôl allweddol o fewn twristiaeth, a dwi eisiau rheoli disgwyliadau o ran aillddechrau digwyddiadau mawr yng Nghymru. Dwi ddim yn rhagweld y bydd unrhyw bosibilrwydd y bydd digwyddiadau torfol yn dychwelyd yn y dyfodol agos. O ran y Gymraeg, mae COVID-19 wedi ein atgoffa ni o bwysigrwydd perthynas technoleg â'r iaith, ac mae'n amlwg bellach pa mor ddibynnol ydyn ni ar dechnoleg er mwyn gallu parhau i weithio, dysgu a chyfathrebu gyda ffrindiau a theulu. Mae Cymraeg 2050 yn rhoi lle canolog i dechnoleg, ac felly dwi'n falch o allu cyhoeddi heddiw y bydd Cysgliad ar gael yn rhad ac am ddim i unigolion a busnesau sydd â llai na 10 o weithwyr cyn diwedd mis Mai. Cysgliad - mae e'n becyn sy'n cynnwys geiriadur yn ogystal â gwirydd sillafu a gramadeg Cymraeg, fydd yn help i bob un ohonom dwi'n siŵr. Ond weithiau gall dechnoleg fod yn rhwystr. Er enghraifft, does dim modd cynnig gwasanaeth cyfieithu ar y pryd yn Microsoft Teams ar hyn o bryd, a dwi wedi ysgrifennu at Microsoft i ofyn iddyn nhw ddatblygu hwn ar frys. Er bod y Ganolfan Dysgu Cymraeg Cenedlaethol wedi gorfod canslo pob gwers Cymraeg wyneb yn wyneb, mae'r diddordeb mewn cyrsiau ar lein wedi cynyddu yn syfrdanol. Mewn un wythnos, cofrestrodd dros 3,000 o ddysgwyr newydd eu diddordeb nhw, ac mi fydd 1,300 o'r rheini yn dechrau ar y cwrs yn ystod y mis yma. Byddwch chi hefyd wedi gweld ein bod ni wedi rhoi cefnogaeth ariannol i'r Eisteddfod Genedlaethol, ac roedd hi'n bwysig, wrth i'r Eisteddfod wynebu heriau ariannol difrifol, fod Llywodraeth Cymru yna i gefnogi'r ŵyl unigryw yma. Bydd yr Urdd yn cynnal yr Eisteddfod ddigidol gyntaf, Eisteddfod T, yn ystod gwyliau'r Sulgwyn, ac mae'n parhau i weithio gydag elusen Llamau i gefnogi pobl ifanc a theuluoedd bregus. Ym mis Chwefror, gwnes i lansio ymgynghoriad ar y polisi trosglwyddo iaith yn y cartref, a dwi am gyhoeddi nawr fy mod i eisiau ymestyn y cyfnod ar gyfer yr ymgynghoriad yma tan yr hydref. Dwi'n ymwybodol iawn o bwysigrwydd y Gymraeg yn arbennig ym maes iechyd a gofal, a dwi wedi gofyn felly i'r Gweinidog iechyd gadw hyn mewn cof yn arbennig mewn sefyllfaoedd sensitif diwedd oes, yn ystod y cyfnod anodd yma. So, hoffwn i jest orffen trwy ddweud fy mod i'n hynod o ddiolchgar i'r Dirprwy Weinidog am ei gydweithrediad ac i bob aelod staff yn fy mhortffolio i, a phob partner sydd wedi bod yn cydweithredu gyda ni, am ymateb mewn ffordd mor bositif yn wyneb yr heriau anferthol rŷn ni'n eu hwynebu. Dwi'n siŵr y down ni drwy'r cyfnod tywyll yma yn bobl wahanol, yn fudiadau gwahanol, ac yn wlad wahanol, ond mae yna obaith, mae yna oleuni ar y gorwel, ac mae'n bwysig ein bod ni'n sefyll yn gadarn gyda'n gilydd i ymateb i'r heriau sydd yn dal yn ein hwynebu ni.
