Teaghlach | Family
We meet Gaelic learner Caroline Quinn from Trinidad and Tobago, while Calum Maclean is in Portmahomack, Easter Ross, learning about his heritage.
Tha Joy Dunlop gar toirt tro na ciad ceumannan a tha a dhìth airson ar misneachadh gus Gàidhlig a bhruidhinn. Thairis air an t-sreath, bidh i a’ dèiligeadh ri facail is abairtean air measgachadh de chuspairean co-cheangailte ri gach taobh de ar beatha. Leis gun do dh’ionnsaich i fhèin, bheir Joy dhuinn briathrachas mu charaidean, an dachaigh, an teaghlach, obair agus an aimsir am measg gu leòr eile ann an dòigh a tha sìmplidh agus furasta a thuigsinn. Bidh stiùireadh ann cuideachd a thaobh a bhith a’ cleachdadh abairtean, le eisimpleirean soilleir ann an dramathan goirid.
Coinnichidh sinn luchd-ionnsachaidh èasgaidh, feadhainn a tha ag ionnsachadh as ùr agus cuid a bha fileanta agus a sguir ga cleachdadh, agus iadsan a th’ air a bhith ag ionnsachadh fad bhliadhnaichean. Agus bidh Calum MacIlleathain a’ toirt sealladh eile dhuinn air Alba is e ann an diofar àitichean air feadh na dùthcha.
Lorgar tuilleadh stuthan taic air-loidhne: www.speakgaelic.scot agus ann an sreath phodcastan a tha ri fhaighinn air BBC Sounds.
Joy Dunlop guides viewers through the first steps to inspire us to speak Gaelic. Throughout the series, she’ll introduce words and phrases on a variety of everyday topics. A Gaelic learner herself, Joy will support us through pronunciation and vocabulary on topics such as friends, family, home, work and weather.
We meet diligent learners who have embraced speaking Gaelic, from new learners to lapsed native speakers and the on-off learners who have improved their language skills over the decades. The intrepid Calum Maclean takes us on adventures to hidden treasures around Scotland.
Supporting materials can be found online: www.speakgaelic.scot and in the SpeakGaelic podcasts on BBC Sounds.
