time/amzer

Deiz mat d'an holl,

A quick question -- is amzer used to mean time in the two senses that it is used in French? The time it is (hours, minutes etc.) in addition to meaning weather? How would one say, for example, "There isn't much time" (Il n'y a pas beaucoup de temps)? I am tempted to think that it is "N'eus ket kalz amzer" but got to thinking that amzer might not be the way to express this.

trugarez d'an holl eus Seattle, Devi

Yes, "mazer" means both, as in french.

"There isn't much time" -> "N'eus ket kalz amzer", as you said yourself.
A very popular expression here is "Amzer 'zo" !

A galon,
Romuald.
