Description

This is the St David's Wales Flag. This flag has not been in use for long and comes from the coat of arms for St. David.

What is the flag of St David?

St David’s flag, representing the patron saint of Wales, features a yellow cross on a black background.

Millions of people in Wales are celebrating St David’s Day (1 March).

Although the country’s national day is not an official public holiday, the Welsh usually go all out to commemorate it.

It has been used on occasion as an alternative to Wales’ official flag, but it is traditionally flown on St David’s Day.

The origins of the flag are uncertain, but it is thought to have gained prominence in the early 20th century.

Some claim it dates back to the seventh century.

So, how do you say “Happy St David’s Day” in Welsh, what is the celebration all about - and what is the patron saint’s flag?

It is: “Dydd G?yl Dewi Hapus”.

Those who aren’t well-versed in the language will be wondering how that is pronounced, which is: “Deethe goo-eel Dew-ee happ-iss".

In “dydd”, the “th” sound is soft, like “the”.
