I was speaking to a man from Ireland last year and we didn't understand each other perfectly, but somewhat well. Fhuair mi an leabhar Sgeul an Latha ach tha e aig Donaidh an dra\sda.

Gheibh thu iomadh rud inntinneach ann, eadar sgeulaichdean, gna\th-fhaclan, sean-fhaclan, 's a h-uile sian.You'll find many interesting things in it, between stories, sayings, proverbs, and everything. Bu toigh leam am beachd aig Do\mhnall air an leabhar fhaighinn, 'nuair a bhios e deiseil leis. I'd like too know Donnie's opinion of the book when he's through with it. 'Sann a Alba a tha\inig e, nach ann? Agus 's e Ga\idhlig Cheap Breatainn a bh' aig Eo\s Ni\ll Bhig. Chuala mi gu robh a' Gha\idhlig ann an Ceap Breatainn na's aosda na na bhios ri chleachdadh ann an Alba bho chionn bhliadhnaichean. Ma dh'fhaoidte gum biodh barail aige..? It's from Scotland he came, isn't it? And it's CB Gaelic that Joe Neil ( Little Joe Neil) . I heard that the CB Gaelic was older than what's being ( what's been ) used in Scotland for years. Perhaps he'd have an opinion..? Le meas, Aonghas The Nova Scotia Scottish Gaelic Learner's List - Archives -

Wasn't knowledge at-me at-all that is it piper that is in-him! Will-be interest at

I didn't know he was a piper at all! Morris will be interested in this since he is a
goalie and piper also.
Sheall me air faclam cloinne fo 'penguin'. The e ag radh 'ceann-fionn'.
I looked in a children's dictionary (Gaelic of course) under 'penguin'.
It says ' white head'.
