Usage notes

• When g is written before j, they merge together and create the sound of y in you.
• G is sometimes pronounced like the s in sugar in words of French origin, like genre, due to the fact that Norwegian lacks the voiced palato-alveolar sibilant [ʒ].
• In eastern and nothern dialects, g at the end of pronouns is pronounced like the y in boy. In western and southern dialects, the g is pronounced like g in great.

Letter

g (lower case, upper case G)

1. The tenth letter of the Welsh alphabet, called èg and written in the Latin script. It is preceded by ff and followed by ng.

Mutation

• G at the beginning of words is omitted in a soft mutation, mutates to Ng in a nasal mutation and is unchanged by aspirate mutation, for example with the word gorsaf (“station”):

Welsh mutation
radical	soft	nasal	aspirate
gorsaf	orsaf	ngorsaf	unchanged
Note: Some of these forms may be hypothetical. Not every possible mutated form of every word actually occurs.
