Asking “are you?” and “are you not?".
You will be familiar with the way we ask simple questions, using the interrogative forms of verbs e.g. a bheil thu toilichte? (are you pleased?), an robh thu anns a' chidsin? (were you in the kitchen?)
- a bheil thu toilichte?
- are you pleased?
- an robh thu anns a' chidsin?
- were you in the kitchen?
In the conversation taking place in transcript 3 you will hear negative questions being asked and answered. These generally employ the word nach e.g. nach eil thu toilichte? (are you not pleased?)
- nach eil thu toilichte?
- are you not pleased?
- an robh thu anns a' chidsin?
- were you in the kitchen?
This is the end of Section 11. Why not test yourself to see how much you've learnt? If you would like to learn some useful conversation about eating and drinking, go on to Section 12 - Dh'ith mi cus!
