Tha mi gu math eòlach mu dheidhinn gràmar na Gàidhlig, ma tha ceist sam bith agaibh mu dheidhinn, dìreach faighnich :D

No-ones has put anything here yet, so I'll start ....

I'm quite knowledgeable in Gaelic gramar, I'f any one has any questions, just ask

'S e ceist teann a th' innte... 's dòcha gum bi e feumail dhut gnàthsan amharasach a chinnteachadh ann an Faclair na gnàthsan cainnte


That's a tough one... maybe double-check anything that looks suspicious in the Faclair na gnàthsan cainnte

If you mean compound loan words, then the best way is to consult the Stòr-Data section of the SMO [www.smo.uhi.ac.uk] web site.

In some cases English must be used e.g. Copyright or Brand names

If you however mean idiomatic phrases, bear in mind English idioms do not tr*nsl*t* into Gaelic and vice-versa.
