Fòram na Gàidhlig

Cha chreid mi nach eil thu ceart! Cha robh mi eòlach air an abairt ud

Obh ceart, a Luchag. Iongantag! Tha eachdraidh fada aig Rhodes. Tha mi ag iarraidh a' dol dhan Ghreug. Tha mi a' dol a Dhùn Éideann an-diugh oir tha agallamh agam. 'S toil leam Edinburgh.

Oh right, poor mouse. Wonderful! Rhodes has a long history. I want to go to Greece. I'm going to Edinburgh today because I have an interview. I like Edinburgh.

Gura math a thèid leat

Good luck

Tapadh leat! Bha e math. Bha i brèagha ann an Dùn Éideann. 'S e mo bhaile-mór prìomhach a th' ann. Am bheil baile-mór prìomhach agaibh?

Thank you! It was good. It was beautiful out in Edinburgh. It's my favourite city. Do you all have a favourite city?

Ged a tha Dùn Èideann nas snasaile, is toil leam Glaschu

Although DE is prettier, I like G.


-> baile mòr as fhearr leam/leibh

Tapadh leat. Cha robh mi ann an Glaschu idir! Tha mi ag iarraidh a dhol, ge-tà. Dè an toil leat anns an Glaschu? Chan e baile mòr a th' ann an Cill Rìmhinn, ach 's e am baile as fhearr leam a th'ann.

Thanks. I've never been to Glasgow! I want to go, though. What do you like in Glasgow? St Andrews isn't a city, but it's my favourite town.

Tha mi fhìn à taobh an Ear na h-Alba bho thùs, agus mar sin 's fheàrr leam an aimsir ann an DE - fuar ach nas tioraime na taobh an Iar. Ged a tha e (beagan) nas blàithe, tha G ro fhliuch dhomh!

I am originally from the East of Scotland and therefore I prefer the weather in Edinburgh - cold but drier than the West. Although it's (a bit) warmer, Glasgow is too wet for me!

'S e baile glè inntinneach a th' ann an Glaschu. Tha torr ri fhaicinn ann, agus tha na daoine càirdeil dhomh agus is toil leotha tarraing asad

G is a very interesing city. There is a lot to see, and people are nice to me and they like to pull your leg


Bha mi ann an Cill Rìmhinn roimhe, 's e àite brèagha a th' ann.

I have been to St. A., it's a beautiful place


-> Cha robh mi ann an Glaschu a-riamh - which word you pick for "never" depends on the time it refers to
-> Dè as toil leat ann an Glaschu?

Tha mi sa Ghreug a-nis!
Is fhearr leotha "Rodos" a sgrìobhadh anns na litrichean Laidinneach an àite "Rhodes" mar a tha e sa Bheurla.
Mar sin, tha mi ann an Rodos, faisg air am baile den aon ainm.
Tha mi a' fàs nas leisge agus nas leisge gach latha; is toigh leam seo gu dearbh!
Ach b' fhearr leam leughadh nas motha mu na Ridirean de Rodos agus msaa; tha an eachdraidh seo fada agus toinnte.

I'm in the Greece now!
They prefer to write "Rodos" in Latin letters instead of "Rhodes" as in English.
So, I'm in "Rodos" near the city of the same name.
I become more and more lazy every day; I really like it!
But I would like to read more about the Knights of Rhodes and so on; the history is long an complicated.

'S e dùthaich bhrèagha a th' ann a' Ghreug ! Mòran bhliadhnaichean air ais bha mi air a' bheinn "Olympus" agus ann an Àithne cuideachd . Thachair sinn ri daoine laghach is càirdeil an sin.
Greece is a lovely country ! Many years ago I was on the mountain "Olympus" and also in Athens. We met nice and friendly people there.

Bha mise air a' bheinn "Olympus" dà bhliadhna air ais, ach bha sin ann an Cìopras: tha an t-Olympus aca fhèin ann.

I've been on the mountain "Olympus" two years ago, but this was on Cyprus: there is their own Olympus there.

--> anns an Àithne

Tha mi an dòchas gum bi làithean brèagha agaibh! Nuair a bha sinn an-siud, bha e uabhasach teth san Lùnastal.
I hope that you have good days ! When we were there, it was terribly hot in August .

'S ann on adhbhar seo a thàinig sinne a-nall sa Chèitean; 's lugha orm teas.

This is the reason of our coming here in May; I do hate the hotness.

chrìochnaich mi an deuchainn deireannach (of my degree) agam, an-duigh.

Tha mi glè toilichte a-nis!

I finished my last university exam today.

I am very happy now!

Glè mhath!
Very good!
