My apologies to the GOC

I've been rereading the original GOC and I have to apologise. While I disagree with them on several decisions (m.e. có-dhiubh -> cò-dhiù), in general it's a hell of a lot better than I thought -- just very difficult to read.
Sadly, the 2005 one is more readable but less thorough.
So a large amount of my disagreements seem to come from people overinterpreting them. (People still "correct" mi if I use "bithidh", for example.)
I still would like to see an academic justification for their decisions, though.

AFAIK
bithidh is just the stressed form of
bidh anyway, which would make them both equally correct
Just like
thubhairt and
thuirt.

'S e leabhar beag a th'ann le "Gaidhlig ur" ann e.
Mar:
An-drasda > An-drasta
A bhi > A bhith
Dannsadh > Dannsa
Tha e aice cuideachd "New spelling and words":
Bhideo > Video
Bhiosa > Visa
Bhodca > Vodka
Bhasa > Vase
Tha e agam air PDF. bith mi a' cuir e dhut.
It is a small book with "New Gaelic" in it.
Also new words.
A little grammar too.
Essential if you want to be up to date.
I have the PDF version. I will send you it.

Tha rudan nach eil mi gan tuigsinn mun "orthograffick convenchens" sin. Carson "dràsda" -> "dràsta", "ASBO" -> "ASPO" (bàr beag...) ach chan e "sgoil" -> "scoil"? "Tha Maighstir Goc a' fuireach anns a' Ghearastan, agus 's e Alastair a th' air. A bheil sibh ag aithneachadh a' charaid, Ms. Mhoireastan? No, 's dòcha, Ms. Voireastan?" Anns a' Chuimris, chan eil "sd" idir. Ach tha "sb" is "sg". Spòrs - sbort, sgoil - ysgol, an Spàinn - yr Ysbaen (no Sbaen), Albannach - Sgotyn (no Albannwr), èisteachd - eistedd (uill, tha "eistedd" a' ciallachadh "suidhe", ach tha mi cinnteach gu bheil ceangal an sin). Curiouser is curiouser, abair Alice...

Chanainn-sa gum bitheadh e na b'fheàrr dhan chànan nan cruthaicheadh iad faclan ùra an àite na a bhith cleachdadh faclan le litreachadh Bheurla, no cleachd faclan Gàidhlig far a bheil faclan Beurla a tha air an cleachdadh an-dràsta!

Chan e faclan Beurla a th'ann an Video, Visa, Vodka no Vase - 's e faclan Laidin no Ruisis a th'annta!
Dè mu dheidhinn: "Chìmi" an àite "Bhideo" no "Uisgeag" an àite "Bhodca"?

Cha tuirt mu gur iad faclan Beurla a bh'annta idir, ach faclan le
litreachadh Bheurla!
Bha mi a feuchainn a ràdh far nach eil facal Ghàidhlig a th'ann, bhiodh e na b'fheàrr facal ùr a chruthachadh bho eadar-theangachadh an fhacail no dòighean eile an àite a bhith an litreachadh Bheurla a chleachdadh.
Chan eil mi cinnteach mu dheidhinn
Chìmi, ach 's toigh leam
Uisgeag

Mar ann an 'uisgeag is sùgh orainds', 's dòcha?
No am feum againn air faclan ùr airson iadsan cuideachd?

B' fhèarr leam uisgeag dìreach às a' bhogsa fuar, gun dad sam bith eile ann
Ach tha e caran tràth dhà fhathast, saoilidh mi - deich uairean 'sa mhadainn
