@prinseparadox Ag aontachadh gu tur. Boss move a bha sin. Faodaidh tu a' choir a chur air Google Translate ma thig iad faisg air! Smaoinich a-nis air do shaorsa. Cha tig ort leithid a dheanamh tuilleadh gu bràth mur a h-iarr thu fhèin. Onwards agus upwards :)
“I’d love to be fluent” says someone who’s made no effort to learn.
“It’s the way it’s taught” says the person who never once listened in class.
“It’s a difficult language” says the person who gave up after learning one grammar rule.
If you wanted to speak Irish, you could.
@SholaMos1 I would hazard that as leader of the SNP, Humza Yousaf would likely prefer to be referred to as Scottish Asian than british. Just a thought.

Powerful metaphor for the flexibility of small communities, often rural, in finding solutions that work for them rather than trying to fit into the 'grey' mould of big buisiness, government & bureaucracy. Ergo too what grey squirrels cd learn fm the reds.
@philcoghill @DeThaDol_Harris @communitylandOH @welove_Harris That is literally the view from the building and the photo doesn't do it justice. I taught Gaelic there last year and honestly had to turn my back on the view so many times in order to stay focused on the group.
@nicmharcuis I know someone in the islands whose dad had had a celebratory drink prior to registering his birth. Calum (now in his 60s) only found out he was registered female when he applied for his passport. Which is very cool in many ways :)
@LauraEWebsterr Doesnt matter that those present couldn't ask follow-up questions. It wasn't for them. The English speaking reporter was just forwarding questions from the Gaelic newsroom. They can ask the follow up questions later if they want.
@MAML84 They're saying 3pm. Kettle on the stove and oodie on. Mobile data until batteries go flat. Not everyone so cosy though. It's going to be cold and long for a lot of folk.
@frisealarainn Yep, this is concerning. Defending Westminster over-reach to justify reversing something so important is concerning. Seeking Political leadership as a woman goes somewhat against the views of her church too though. Odd eh? Gaol dhutsa anyways. Bha thu ceart X
@Leodrsson Those vernaculars were the unbroken continuum once the old power-brokers were gone, all the way from antiquity to today. Modern standardizations averaged their best utilities and not those of the defunct classical language, lovely though it was. 2/2
