Brenda

Don't panic! Gaelic follows the English!

My name is Brenda. I live in Olympia, Washington in the United States. I desire to learn Gaelic as it was my great grandmother's first language. She immigrated to the States and through the years the language was lost. I also hope to travel to Scotland, particularly the Isle of Bernera, as this is where my ancestors are from. I cruised right through unit one so here's to hoping that continues.

‘S e Brenda an t-ainm a th' orm. Tha mi a' fuireach ann an Olympia, Washington anns na Stàitean Aonaichte. Tha mi ag iarraidh Gàidhlig ionnsachadh oir b'e Gàidhlig a' chiad chànan a bh' aig mo shean sheanmhair. Ghluais i dha Na Stàitean agus tro na bliadhnachan, chaill ar teaghlach an cànan. Tha mi an dùil a dhol a dh'Alba, agus gu h-àraidh gu Eilean Bheàrnaraigh, oir b' ann an seo a bha mo shinnsirean. Rinn mi mo shlighe tron chiad aonad gu math luath, is tha mi an dòchas gum bi a' chuairt seo a cheart cho furasta.
