CalMerc agus 'coma'

'S e 'coma' a th' ann am 'Facal feumail an latha', le Murchadh MacLeòid, anns a' Chaledonian Mercury.

Coma – being indifferent
Coma is a nice simple short Gaelic word. Pronounced just as spelt. ............The use of the Gaelic word coma can be rather complex and is worth taking a little time to focus on it. The Gaelic for “I don’t care” is “Tha mi coma” – literally “Am I indifferent” and pronounced haa mee kow-ma Another way is: “Is coma leam” – literally “Is indifferent with me” pronounced is kow-ma lum....
Mìnichear cleachdadh eile cuideachd, a chluinneas tu anns an òran 'Balaich an Iasgaich' le Donald Morrison :
“Coma leam leabaidh no cadal no biadh gum faigh mi mo lion an òrdugh,” which means “I have to forget about bed, or sleep or food until I get my (fishing) nets sorted out.”
