Help! The dictionaries give 'ath' followed by the noun as meaning 'next'. Is this not a correct usage in this context?
The above usage 'dhà sheachdain a tha romhainn' means, I suppose,'two weeks which are before us' - is that a more usual or more natural usage. Thanks.
No, it's just personal choice.
Your "ath" is fine too.

40. If you want a nice seaweed lunch, then nip up to the Isles or some other fairly clean area of Scotland, and collect it yourself. You can make a nice Kale Broth with some dulse.
This is cheating, but I also really want to know if anyone else knows whether mobile phones start working again when they dry out.

I have moved the discussion on "air neo" to the grammar forum.
40. Ma bhios tu ag iarraidh biadh meadhan-latha feamainn snog, tadhal air na h-eileanan no roinn eile na h-Alba a bhios an ìre mhath glan, agus faigh thusa fhèin e. Is urrainn dhut Kale Broth math a dhèanamh le duileasg.
