Tha sinn a' fuireach ann am Fìobha. Chan eil sgoil sam bith ann am Fìobha a bhios a' dèanamh Gàidhlig agus tha mi a' smaoineachadh gur e uabhasach seo.
Yellow-KT, where are you staying? You wrote "They dinnae ken whit Gaelic is"... I've got a son, 10 -> 11 year old, who'll be ganning to high school in 2009. We're staying in Fife. There's no school at all in Fife as does Gaelic an I reckon this is not at all sporting, what.
She is studying herself in England.
As for your son, phone the council. it is there job to find him a teacher to teach him if that is your wish. That is what i was told to do and they were going to sort it out, but it was too late by that time. get on the phone to them just now.
I find it ironic they are holding the National Mod this year but there is no where to learn Gaelic.... At least Clackmannanshire has a Gaelic nursery and classes and it is only 10 miles to the GMU and GMU High School.

"socair" is easy in the sense of laid-back, relaxed.
Or to put it another way,
"socair" is easy (ah-ah-ah-ah)
It's easy like Sunday morni-i-i-i-ing
"socair" is ea-ea-ea-ea-ea-ea-easy
It's easy like Sunday mo-o-o-o-o-orning!

Alasdair, Je te remercie pour ton fhreagairt. Sgrìobh mi ris a' Chomhairle agus fhuair mi freagairt fhuar. Chan eil iad airson Gàidhlig idir. Thuirt mi gun robh àrd-sgoil ann am Peairt (nach eil fada de far a bheil sinn a' fuireach) a bhios a' dèanamh Gàidhlig (am Perth Academy) - ach cha bhu Fìobha toileach airson pàidh na cosgaisean siubhail. 'S dòcha gu bheil rudan nas fheàrr ann an Clax.
Smaoinich mi gum bi am Mòd anns an Eaglais Bhreac - chan eil an àite sin faisg air Fìobha idir!
So, it l00ks like Fife won't play at all regarding Gaelic. I am now in touch with BnaG and CnaG about this. What else should I do?

Your posts really confuse me sometimes...
And yes, i realise Falkirk is not in Fife

My mistake...
Clackmannanshire council said they'd pay for me to go to Wallace High each day to do Gaelic, but as it was 7 months into my course it was a bit late...
Just take them up on that offer that is the best you can get.

Uill ma tha sibh a smaoineachadh gur e naidheachd mhàth a th'innte, cha robh am pàipear-deuchainn Gàidhlig agamsa ro fharasta idir. Cha d'rinn mi cho math air, ged a bha mi a deanamh glè mhath anns a'chursa an-deidh.
If it's good news, MY Gaelic exam wasn't too easy. Didn't do well on it, though was doing well in the course before hand.

...anns a' chùrsa
roimhe, saoilidh mi!
Tha mi an dòchas nach robh e cho dona 's a tha thu a' smaoineachadh!
The course
before, I presume! ('an dèidh' is 'after')
I hope it wasn't as bad as you think.

Tapadh leat, cha bi fios agam mun bhuil airson uine ach air a char as lugha tha mi'n dochas gu d'rinn na h-oileanach eile nas miosa!

Chan eil "olc" ann an m'ainm gun adhbhar!
Thanks, wont know for a bit, hope the others do worse, "evil"s not in my name for nothing.
