Eilidh PS I don't have an answer to your question about the use of *rapach no salach* except that we do use messy,untidy and also dirty to mean slightly different things I suppose. I wondered when I used it if rapach was ok to use with a house because the context in which I saw it was about the weather. The Nova Scotia Scottish Gaelic Learner's List - Archives -

Hello Eideard, I have no idea what those lines are on my other posts except that there is something in the subject line at my end that says mime version. My e-mail is a new updated version with all kinds of whistles and bells that I have no idea how to use. I probably hit some key or other and ended up with those lines. If anyone else knows what is happening or what I am possibly doing I'd appreciate computer assistance..moran taing! Thanks for the Gaelic exercises, Eideard, as well as the help doing them. Eilidh.
