What luck!
mrawd is the nasally mutated form (indicating possession after 'fy') of 'brawd' (n) and means 'my brother'
garedig is the soft mutated form of 'caredig' (adj), and means 'kind'
'gwraig' (n) means 'woman'
'gwylio' (v) means to 'look after', 'guard', or 'watch'
An eclipse is the replacing of an initial position letter (like a 'c' and a 'b' in this case) with a soft/nasal/(other) letter to help the flow of the language or as a grammatical indicator. It only happens after certain words or in certain contexts (which can only be mastered by practice and a bit of memorization).
