Story Transcript:
Cy: Roedd y bore'n oer a rhewllyd yng Nghaerdydd, gyda'r awyr yn llawn sglein gwanwyn y bore.
En: The morning was cold and frosty in Caerdydd, with the sky full of the spring-like shine of morning.
Cy: Roedd y strydoedd yn brysur wrth i bobl garlamio i brynu anrhegion Nadolig neu addurniadau.
En: The streets were busy with people rushing to buy Christmas gifts or decorations.
Cy: Yng nghanol y ddinas, roedd y siop dechnoleg-uchel o'r enw "Dai's Digital Delights" yn disgleirio fesul llathen, gyda'i ffenestri'n dangos llusernau nadoligaidd a golau tiriog.
En: In the city center, the high-tech store named "Dai's Digital Delights" gleamed yard by yard, with its windows displaying festive lanterns and bright lights.
Cy: Rhedegodd Emrys, dyn ifanc gyda golwg ychydig yn bryderus a chlustffonau yn ei glustiau, at y drws.
En: Emrys, a young man with a slightly anxious look and headphones in his ears, ran toward the door.
Cy: Roedd Carys, ei chwaer gydymdeimladus, yn cynnig cefnogaeth y tu ôl iddo.
En: Carys, his sympathetic sister, offered support behind him.
Cy: Ac wrth gwrs, roedd Rhiannon, ffrind giach a chynnes i'r ddau, wedi ymuno â nhw, yn awyddus i gynnig cyngor.
En: And of course, Rhiannon, a cheerful and warm friend to both, had joined them, eager to offer advice.
Cy: "Moyn 'da ti fynd i mewn cyntaf," meddai Carys yn chwerthin, gan dynnu Emrys o'i freuddwydion.
En: "Do you want to go in first?" said Carys, laughing, pulling Emrys out of his daydreams.
Cy: Y tu mewn i'r siop, roedd delweddau digidol bywiog yn troelli ar y waliau, yn tynnu sylw cwsmeriaid gyda phob arddangos.
En: Inside the store, lively digital images twirled on the walls, drawing the attention of customers with every display.
Cy: "Mae'n deimlad fel ydw i mewn ffilm wyddonol," meddai Emrys yn ddryslyd, gan edrych o amgylch.
En: "It feels like I'm in a sci-fi movie," said Emrys, confused, looking around.
Cy: Roedd y dewis yn enfawr, gyda chlwstwr o addurniadau goleuo'n tanio i fyny yn eu dalenni eu hunain.
En: The selection was huge, with a cluster of lighting decorations lighting up in their own sheets.
Cy: "Beth am y rhaglen ap sy 'da nhw?" Rhoddodd Carys awgrym.
En: "What about the app program they have?" Carys suggested.
Cy: "Neu cael hwyl gyda'n ddewis ein hunain gyda'n gilydd," ychwanegodd Rhiannon, yn annog gyda bodd nad oedd technoleg yn cynnig y cyfan.
En: "Or having fun selecting our own together," added Rhiannon, encouraging with the sense that technology didn't offer everything.
Cy: Ysywaeth, penderfynodd Emrys roi cynnig ar yr ap, yn chwilio am berffeithrwydd.
En: Nonetheless, Emrys decided to give the app a try, searching for perfection.
Cy: Ond yn fuan, roedd yn teimlo dryswch.
En: But soon, he felt confusion.
Cy: Gormod o opsiynau, rhy fawr o ddewis - roedd ei ben yn troi.
En: Too many options, too much choice - his head was spinning.
Cy: Wedi ailadrodd ei well, gollyngodd Emrys y ffon yn ôl i'w boced, ac edrychodd ar ei chwyer a Rhiannon yna.
En: After trying his best, Emrys put the phone back into his pocket and looked at his sister and Rhiannon.
Cy: "Mae'r dechnoleg yma'n afresymol," cipiodd ef.
En: "This technology is absurd," he snapped.
Cy: "Mae 'nghalon i'n dweud rhywbeth symlach sydd ei angen..."
En: "My heart says something simpler is needed..."
Cy: Gyda chymorth Carys a Rhiannon, cer
