"Bod" can mean "being", but is some contexts, it best translates as "matter" as in "Be sy'n bod?"/"What's the matter?"
So "Dim byd yn bod gyda hynna" is "Nothing the matter with that."

I shall have to learn this one and add it to my meagre list of phrases. Though no doubt my pronunciation will be hopeless...

I confess, I put it into a google translation link. I would not even attempt to learn Welsh: just trying pronunciations leaves me tongue-tied! :-/
But where did the translator come up with "ashes"? Still weird.

I have no idea where "ashes" came from, neither the tree nor the residue from a fire resemebles the word "hynna". Sometimes that google translate seems to have a vivid imagination! :)
