Episode 13 of 26

Orchestral musician Liam Lynch from Dunfermline chats to Joy and Calum researches a traditional event which often precedes a wedding in many parts of rural Scotland.

Tha Joy Dunlop gar toirt tron tuilleadh cheumannan airson ar misneachadh gus leantainn oirnn a bhith bruidhinn na Gàidhlig. Thairis air an t-sreath seo, bidh i a’ dèiligeadh ri facail is abairtean air measgachadh de chuspairean co-cheangailte ri gach taobh de ar beatha. Leis gun do dh’ionnsaich i fhèin a’ chànan, bheir Joy dhuinn briathrachas a tha sìmplidh agus furasta a thuigsinn. Bidh stiùireadh ann cuideachd a thaobh a bhith a’ cleachdadh abairtean, le eisimpleirean soilleir tro chòmhraidhean goirid.

Coinnichidh sinn ri luchd-labhairt èasgaidh, feadhainn a tha ag ionnsachadh as ùr, cuid a bha fileanta agus a sguir ga cleachdadh, agus iadsan a th’ air a bhith ag ionnsachadh fad bhliadhnaichean. Agus bidh Calum MacIlleathain a’ toirt sealladh eile dhuinn air Alba ’s e ann an diofar àitichean air feadh na dùthcha.

Joy Dunlop guides viewers through the next steps to inspire us to speak Gaelic. Throughout the series, she’ll introduce words and phrases on a variety of everyday topics. A Gaelic learner herself, Joy will support us through pronunciation and vocabulary on topics such as friends, home, work, communication and people’s skills.

We’ll meet diligent speakers who have embraced the language, from new learners to lapsed native speakers and the on-off learners who have improved their language skills over the decades. And, the intrepid Calum Maclean takes us on adventures to hidden treasures around Scotland.
