Overall aims and purpose

Bydd y modiwl cyfrwng Cymraeg hwn yn edrych ar agweddau damcaniaethol dwyieithrwydd yn erbyn cefndir ystod eang o sefyllfaoedd dwyieithog, gan gynnwys (ond nid yn unig) y cyd-destun Cymraeg yng Nghymru. Bydd y dull yn un ieithyddol yn bennaf, ond bydd agweddau fel ethnograffiaeth, addysg, cynllunio polisi a seicoieithyddaeth yn cael eu hystyried hefyd.

Byddwn yn trafod pynciau megis: diffinio dwyieithrwydd, dwyieithrwydd cymdeithasol, cyffwrdd iaith, cyfnewid cod, corpysau dwyieithog a’u defnydd, agweddau sosioieithyddol o ddwyieithrwydd a sefyllfaoedd dwyieithog, caffael dwy iaith, addysg ddwyieithog, agweddau pobl unieithog a dwyieithog tuag at yr iaith Gymraeg, disgrifiadau seicoieithyddol o ddwyieithrwydd, a dyfodol yr iaith Gymraeg fel iaith leiafrifol mewn cyffwrdd â’r Saesneg, iaith fwyafriol.

Caiff myfyrwyr hefyd gyfarwyddyd ar ddulliau damcaniaethol o drin maes dwyieithrwydd yn ogystal â phynciau methodolegol yn ymwneud â chasglu a dadansoddi data.

Tutorial

Anogir myfyrwyr i weld eu darlithydd ar sail un-i-un yn ystod eu horiau swyddfa sy'n cael eu hysbysebu (neu drwy apwyntiad) er mwyn trafod materion sy'n ymwneud â chynnwys y modiwl, i gael eglurhad ar bynciau a hrafodaethau, ac i drafod adborth ar aseiniadau ac ymarferion dosbarth.
