Verb

dangos (first-person singular present dangosaf)

  1. to show

Usage notes

The ng in dangos is considered to be two separate letters, n and g, and so is found in a dictionary under dan- and is pronounced /ŋɡ/ in South Wales. In the North, however, the pronunciation of ng here is /ŋ/ as if it were the single Welsh letter ng.
