It's looking good
I wonder if Greg Hemphill knows Gaelic? Hmmm.

BBC Alba. Available on: Sky, Virgin Media, Freesat, Freesat from Sky and online.

[amhlaobh]

Is truagh nach fhaigh a' mhòr-chuid de dhaoine e: chan fhaighear e tro Freeview (DVB-T). Mar sin, mura bheil truinnsear grànnda saideil agad no mura pàigh thu Rupert M. no Sir Richard B. airson sin, bi thu ann's a' "gleann nan aineolach".

[Gràisg]

Rupert, 's e duine gasda a th' ann. Seall na rinn e airson ball-coise shios gu deas - a-nis bidh MG Alba a' sabhaladh a' gheama ann an Alba. Nach math sin?

'truinnsear grànnda saideil' tha gradh agam air an fhear agamsa, sianal frangach, Al-Jazeera no Fox news, creidheamh, cuairt dha na bùthan, dad sam bith a thoghras tu...oh, agus cuimris, roc, ccocaireachd...

[*Alasdair*]

Tha BBC Alba a' craoladh gach feasgar eadar 8-10f air sianal 169.

A-nochd, choimhead mi "An Raghainn" - Bha e fìor mhath!

[yellow-ceitidh]

Hù-Radh!

(Seadh, tha mi air ais a' Alba a-nis!)

[GunChleoc]

An do chòrd e riut?

[yellow-ceitidh]

Chòrd. Bha i uabasach mhath. Leugh mi mu an sianal ùr anns a West Highland Free Press agus na Scotsman.

[GunChleoc]

Dè eile an do rinn thu?
What else did you do?

... anns an Scotsman no anns an Albannach

[yellow-ceitidh]

Chaidh mi suas mòran beanntan air mo rhothair, fhaic mo co-ògha agus mo seanpàrantan, chaidh air ceithir aiseagan CalMac, chaidh a-snàimh, ghabh dealbhan a clàr-seòlaidh Gàidhlig agus chaidh suas na Caolas Bhòidh anns a' churachan. Ach cha do thuit mi anns a' Ghàidhlig comhla ri càil duine idir, ged cheannaich mi leabharan Gàidhlig anns a' Cheann Loch Chille Chiarain, agus bha an boireannach glè ghasda dhomh. Cuideacheadh, a-nis tha "MacLennan's Gaelic-English Dictionary" agam. Bha e a mo seann-seanhair.

I went up hills on my bike, saw my cousins and grandparents, went on 4 CalMac ferries, went swimming, took pictures of Gaelic signposts and went up the Kyles of Bute in a kayak. I didn't speak to anyone in Gaelic though I bought some Gaelic books in Campbelton and the lady was very kind. Also I have MacLennans Dictionary. It was my Great-Grandad's.

rhothair

You can not lenite L,N,R in Gàidhlig a chara, rh looks very weird.

Co-dhiù, tha BBC Alba agam ar mo theilibhsean cuideachd agus choimhead mi An Raghainn feumaidh mi radh gu robh e glè mhath!

Actually they do, you just don't write it http://www.akerbeltz.org/beagangaidhlig ... ar_lnr.htm

You'd say "an rothair agam" in any case http://www.akerbeltz.org/beagangaidhlig ... ssives.htm

thadhail mi ri mo cho-ogha...

Cha do bhruidhinn mi anns a' Ghaidhlig ri duine sam bith

leabhar - leabhraichean

Tha mi toilichte gun do chòrd na saor-laithean riut!
I'm glad you enjoyed the holidays

[Supreemio]

I am not talking about speech...

[GunChleoc]

And I just wanted her to be aware of the fact that you do lenite them even if you don't see it when you write

[Níall Beag]

I am not talking about speech...

Then you have to make that clear -- lenition is a feature of speech after all.
