'Published Date: 15 January 2010
THIS is not just any till… it's an M&S till that talks in six different languages. Unfortunately for Gaelic speakers, theirs is not one of them.

But it is hoped that could change should bilateral, if not bilingual, talks can be arranged between Gaelic activists and Marks & Spencer to persuade the store to introduce the speaking self-service facility where the language thrives.'

- i.e. nowhere. A bheil bùth S&M sam bith ann an àite far am bi, can, 20% no barrachd a' cleachdadh Gàidhlig?

Cia meud a bhios a' cleachdadh Cuimris ann an Alba? Mise - 's dòcha dusain eile eadar Muckle Flugga is Maol Ghall-ghallaibh - agus sin e. Ach tha seirbheis Chuimris acasan! Da iawn - glè mhath - agus foillsichidh seo a h-uile sgudal mu "where the language thrives".

'S e cànan oifigeil na h-Alba a th' anns a' Ghàidhlig (Achd na Gàidhlig, 2005) agus 's ann airson seo a tha dleastanas aig S&M a solarachadh.

Na gabh dragh, a Sheonaidh; siud direach na ràdh an Scotsman.

Thuirt M&S gu bheil aon siosteam "check-out" a-mhàin air fad na Rioghachd Aonaichte. Ma chuireas iad Gàidhlig air, bidh e leis a' Ghàidhlig air fad na h-RA, chan "where the language thrives".
