- Ceitidh: A bheil thu ann an sunnd an-diugh?
- Are you in a good frame of mind today?
- Iain: Tha mi ann an sunnd math dha-rìribh. Dè mu do dheidhinn-sa?
- I’m in fine fettle. How about yourself?
- Ceitidh: Tha mi-fhìn gu dòigheil, tapadh leat.
- I’m very well myself, thanks.
- Iain: Is math sin.
- That’s good.
- Ceitidh: A bheil thu an-còmhnaidh gu sunndach?
- Are you always in good humour?
- Iain: Chan eil, gu dearbh. B’ fheàrr leam gu robh.
- Certainly not. I wish I were.
- Ceitidh: B’ fheàrr is leamsa.
- So do I.
- Iain: Ach cha bhi thusa greannach uair sam bith.
- But you are never ill-tempered.
- Ceitidh: Tha mi duilich, ach chan eil thu ceart.
- I am sorry, but you are not correct.
- Iain: Cuin mu dheireadh a bha thu greannach?
- When were you last ill-tempered?
- Ceitidh: Bha mi ann an droch shunnd an-dè.
- I was in a bad mood yesterday.
- Iain: Carson a bha sin?
- Why was that?
- Ceitidh: Cheannaich mi sgiorta sa bhùth.
- I bought a skirt in the shop.
- Iain: Tha sin math, ge-tà. Carson a bha thu ann an droch shunnd?
- That’s good though. Why were you in a bad mood?
- Ceitidh: Bha an sgiorta ro bheag dhomh.
- The skirt was too small for me.
- Iain: O, tha sin duilich.
- Oh, that’s a pity.
- Ceitidh: Ach thug mi air ais i.
- But I took it back.
- Iain: Is a bheil sgiorta cheart agad a-nis?
- And do you have a correct skirt now?
- Ceitidh: Tha. Agus a-nis tha mi ann an deagh shunnd.
- Yes. And I am now in a good mood.
- Iain: Is math sin. Dìreach mar a tha mise!
- That’s good. Just as I am!
- Ceitidh: Bidh sinn ann an deagh shunnd fad an là.
- We’ll be in fine fettle all day.
