Fòram na Gàidhlig

Mòran taing! Cha robh cuimhne agam cò leis a tha an làrach-lìn seo. Bha mi a' smaoineachadh Stòrlann, 's dòcha, ach cha robh e air an làrach-lìn aca air àite sam bith agus bha eagal orm gu robh e air falbh.

A bheil fios aig duine sam bith dè thachair do an làrach-lìn http://www.ansgeulachdghoirid.com/ ?

B' e 2019 a bha an turas mu dheireadh a chleachd mi e, the mi a' creidsinn. B' e làrach-ìn feumail.

Hmm. Whoever wrote that apparently has a lot trouble with this "simple language." I have 10-year-old ESL students who write better English than that. You know, it's been my experience as an ESL teacher of 15 or so years that students who are sloppy and flippant in their usage of one langua...

69. Carson Eadailtis? Tha m' athair a' gluasad gu Naples an ath sheachdain. Cànan ràsanach co-dhiù.

70. Indeed. Italian is just Latin with more consonants, and Latin is a dead language for a good reason. But don't tell any Italian that I said that!

I'll give this a try: 17. Ach thuirt e e ann an Cuimris, mar sin fhreagair mi le an aon t-abairt a bha fios agam anns a' chànan sin: "Arhoswch - mae'r coetsmon wedi cael ei daro gan fellt!" I'm not 100% sure "le" is the prep I should use there, but that should be at least coheren...

Tha mi duilich, ach tha mi a' smaoineachadh nach eil iomadh duine a-muigh na SAA fìor thuigsinn caimar a tha an tadhadh seo glè bhrìgheil, eachdraidheil ris muinntir Ameireaganaich. Gu fortanach, creid iomadh duine a-muigh na SAA gum biodh Obama ceannard glè mhath le cùisean eader-nàiseanail. Creid ...

Math fhèin, Alasdair. Nuair a thoiseach mi Gàidhlig ag ionnsachadh, lorg mi a' thoinndadh Ghàidhlig à Rosetta Stone ach chan eil aonar ann, gu mì-fhortanach. Bidh mi a' sgrìobhadh ruitha on tha mi a' smaoineachadh gum bhiodh seo rud math airson Gàidhlig.

Bha mi a' leughadh an t-aithris BhBC seo agus cha b' urrainn dhomh an t-abair seo a thuigsinn

Chaidh rabhadh a thoirt seachad


Dè tha seo ann an Beurla? "An alarm went out" no "An alarm was given out"?

Tapadh leibh.

'S e còmhlan "punk rock" às a' Ghearmailt a tha anntasan.

(I think the name's supposed to be a little silly. )

Ceart gu leor. I haven't set up my Skype account yet (I just got a headset today - I plan to do that tomorrow - must go eat dinner right now - starving) but when I do I'll PM you my Skype name and my email addy so we can get in touch. Mar sin leat.

Cèit, Yes. I'm taking the beginner level. The last class is this Wed. New classes start in late Sept. The beginner level goes through TYG lesson 8. They also give us lessons taken from the Taic website. We went through lesson 19. Beginner class does not cover past and future of verbs (only TO BE), ...

I doubt she's speaking of her own baptism, but rather using baptism as a metaphor for a future baby. After reading all the lyrics, I think the song is about a young woman who's fallen in love with a young man who's left her, for whatever reason, and is vowing to not marry unless she can be with him ...

agasgoil - are you taking the beginner level at the AGA? How far along does the beginner level get? I'm interested in enrolling for Sept and the native speaker I've been working with via email thinks by Sept I ought to be ready for the intermediate level.

Cripes. I have like a zillion Gaidhlig dictionaries in my house and not one has the proper defs of these words! Grumble. Eileen Try Dwelly's, if you have it. That usually has a lot of traditional words used with animals. The problem is threefold, I think. First, people who compile dictionaries and ...

Fàilte! :smeid: Tha mi Amaireaganach cuideachd. Tha mi à California, ged a tha mi a' fuireach ann an Texas a-nis. I'm American too. I'm from California, although I live in Texas now. FYI - you don't use airson when saying how long you did something. From Akerbeltz : Adverbs of time in Gaelic do not ...
