Tha mi ag obair a-nis, ach chan eil mi a' faireachdainn cho math an-dràsta....
I am working now, but I'm not feeling so good right now

Canaibh a h-uile duine "Awwwww"! ;)
Everybody say "Awwww"!

Chan eil e gu deifir; bidh i an deireadh-seachdain a dh'aithghearr!
It doesn't matter, it'll be the weekend soon!

I think you should actually write: an leabhar agam. It´s your property, but your book isn´t connected to the rest of your body. :priob:
Is that correct ?

Tha mi a' fuireach + genitive of "an leabhar"

Is the book your property or are you an author of it?

'S dòcha gur e "an leabhar leam" a tha ann, ach chan eil mi cinnteach.
Maybe it's "an leabhar leam", but I'm not sure.

For my own book, I'd probably use:

an leabhar agam fhìn or mo leabhar fhìn.

Agus mi fhìn, tha an t-eagal orm, oir thuit mo mhac an staidhir a-nuas agus tha mi dhen bheachd gun robh a chnàimh ( dhan mhàs :roll: ) briste. Tha fios agam nach urrain dhuinn dèanamh idir, ach is beag orm sin gu dearbh. :gulach:

And myself ? I'm scared because my son has fallen down the stairs and I think, that he has broken his bone ( in the botty / botton). I know, we can do anything at all, but I really hate that!
Und ich selbst ? Ich habe Angst, denn mein Sohn ist die Treppe herunter gefallen und ich bin der Ansicht, dass er sich seinen Knochen ( im Po ) gebrochen hat. Ich weiß, dass wir überhaupt nichts machen können, aber ich hasse das wirklich.

´S math dh´fhaoidte gu bheil mi neònach.

An e cailleach-oidhche a th' annad?

an e cailleach-oidhche no eun eile a th' annam

's e seachd no ochd uairean de chadal a bhios a dhìth orm gach oidhche! - but this means that there are 7-8 hours that you're not getting. Better:
Feumaidh mi cadal fad 7-8 uairean...

... gun robh an sgudal a' feitheamh rium an-diugh

Chuir na daoine fòn thugam gun fhois

I trust you will feel better: Tha mi an dùil gu bheil sibh a' faireachdainn nas fheàrr

Now I am waiting for my book to arrive. Tha mi a' feitheamh ach an tig an leabhar agam.. Or as Màiri said: Tha mi a' feitheamh ris an leabhar a cheannaich mi a ruigsinn.

Tha mi a’ leughadh leabhair an-dràsta. ´S e „An claigeann aig damien hirst“ an t-ainm a th´air.
I´m just reading a book. It´s called "The skull of Damien Hirst."
Ich lese gerade ein Buch. Es heißt „Der Schädel von Damien Hirst.“

( Tha fios agam nach fheumsa mi a' ghinideach a chleachdadh)

´S e fìor dheagh leabhar a th' ann.
It's a really good book.
Es ist ein wirklich gutes Buch.

´S e leabhar le seachd sgeulachdan goirid sa Ghàidhlig agus sa Ghearmailits a th´ann.
It´s a book of seven short stories in Gaelic and German.
Es ist ein Buch mit sieben Kurzgeschichten in Gälisch und in Deutsch.

Tha mi a' feuchainn ris an teacsa a thuigsinn gu buileach, ach uaireannan nì mi beagan cealgaireachd.
I'm trying to understand the text fully, but sometimes I´ll cheat a bit.
Ich versuche,den Text vollständig zu verstehen, aber manchmal werde ich ein bisschen schummeln.

Ach tha mi dhen bheachd gu bheil e ceart gu leòr.
But I think, that´ s okay.
Aber ich der Ansicht, dass es in Ordnung ist.

Mu dheireadh thall is urrainn dhomh an leabhar a leughadh a-rithist.
Finally, I can read the book once again.
Schließlich kann ich das Buch noch einmal lesen.

Bidh mi ga thuigsinn nas fheàrr gun teagamh.
I will understand it better, no doubt.
Ich werde es ohne Zweifel besser verstehen.
