Da iawn, - Very Fine?
Re: Da iawn, - Very Fine?
In this context - what are you determining as "normal" to be?
Thanks so very much.
Keep up the good work.

Re: Da iawn, - Very Fine?
It just sounds a bit off in English, but it also isn't quite correct as a translation. "Da" means "good" and "iawn" in this context is like "very", it is acting as an adverb rather than an adjective:
da iawn - very good
oer iawn - very cold
dw i'n iawn - I'm OK / I'm fine
dw i'n da iawn - I'm very good / very well
It is a bit confusing because both "iawn" and "fine" have multiple different meanings.
