In transcript 2, the learner Anndra has gone past Big Angus’s house and is close to the shop, on the same side of the road, when he is approached by another person who is learning Gaelic.

The other learner, Pàdraig, assumes that Anndra is a local who is fluent in the language. Pàdraig, who is about the same age as Anndra and addresses him with the informal thu, is coincidentally also looking for Big Angus’s house.

This is the end of unit 18.
