Rydym bellach wedi profi dros ddeng mlynedd o lywodraeth ddatganoledig yng Nghymru, ac wedi profi llywodraethau yn cynnwys y blaid Lafur, y Democratiaid Rhyddfrydol a Phlaid Cymru. Nodweddwyd y deng mlynedd diwethaf gan amrywiaeth o bolisïau ar yr iaith Gymraeg. Pwrpas cyntaf y pamffledyn hwn yw dadlau na fu yr un o’r polisïau yma, o Iaith Pawb hyd at y sefyllfa bresennol gyda chlymblaid Cymru’n Un, o ddifrif ynglŷn a sicrhau dyfodol yr iaith Gymraeg, un ai oherwydd diffyg ewyllys neu ddiffyg ymarferol. Ei ail bwrpas yw gosod her syml a diamwys wrth ddrws llywodraeth glymbleidiol bresennol y Blaid Lafur a Phlaid Cymru – cyflwynwch ddeddfwriaeth gynhwysfawr ac effeithiol ar yr iaith Gymraeg fel cam cyntaf tuag at ddangos bod y sefyllfa yma ar newid.

We have now seen ten years of devolution in Wales, and have experience of various administrations at some point including the Labour party, the Liberal Democrats and Plaid Cymru. The past ten years have also seen a number of policies relating to the Welsh language. This pamphlet’s first purpose is to show that none of these policies, from Iaith Pawb to the current position of the One Wales coalition, have been serious about safeguarding the future of the Welsh language, either due to ideological failings or practical failings. Its second purpose is to set the current Labour-Plaid coalition a clear challenge – to introduce comprehensive and effective legislation on the Welsh language as a first step to showing that this situation is about to change.
