Knowing some Gaelic grammar helps you to understand and communicate in the language. Use the quiz to put your knowledge of irregular verbs to the test.
Forming the past and future tenses of verbs in Gaelic is straightforward on the whole. If you know the root of a verb, then you can form other tenses.
The Future Tense
To form the Future Tense:
When the last vowel of the root form is a broad vowel (a, o, u) - for example, gabh - you simply add -aidh after the root so gabh becomes gabhaidh
When the last vowel of the root form is a narrow vowel (e, i) - for example, coisich - you simply add -idh after the root so coisich becomes coisichidh
