#scotsgaelic — Public Fediverse posts

The blackberries darken on the cane without asking. The bog fills without applause. Somewhere a queer legislator is saying the hard thing into a microphone, and somewhere a stranger is kneeling in a marsh that isn't theirs to save and saving it anyway.

Beannachd leat gu ruige an ath-mhadainn — blessing on you until the next morning.

Tha an talamh a' dùsgadh — the earth is waking.

The cicadas have started. That rising electric drone that means the underground years are over and the brief loud summer has begun. You are allowed to be that. Loud, alive, and brief.

Anois — now — is the only soil anything grows in.

Cha leig thu leas a ghiùlan fad an latha — you do not have to carry it all day.
Set the stone down. Pick it up tomorrow if you must. But not now, not all of it, not while the fireflies are writing their green semaphore that means only here, here, still here.

Tha thu an seo — you are here.
The longest light of the year is leaning all the way in now, pouring down on gardens that don't know the name of a single politician. The mother of the earth is not asking you to be calm. She's asking you to be here. https://twp.ai/4hsXcY

Scottish Greens lodge proposals for 'equal respect' for Scots and Gaelic

“Scots and Gaelic are Scotland’s languages, but centuries of deliberate attempts to destroy them both have pushed them to the very margins of modern life."

“Gaelic is on the verge of extinction, but it can recover and thrive with the right support."

Is toil leam an leabhar seo.

I was recently given this book as a gift, and it's really funny 😁

Well, this is really sad news for me ☹️
I'll have to find a different way to continue learning Gaelic.

After going through Beginners 1, 2 and 3 and Elementary 1, 2 and 3 at the University of Edinburgh, it's really disappointing not to be able to continue that same course.

Guess I'll be looking for alternatives now, even outside of Edinburgh.

Any Scottish Gaelic folk who can help me with this personal query? I'm looking what in English would be the "Western Isles" is written in geographical databases of administrative areas.

"Na h-Eileanan Siar" vs "Na h-Eileanan an Iar". Are these the same thing or is there a difference in meaning? What context do you use one over the other? Googling suggests former as council area, latter might be UK/Scottish parliament constituencies?

📻 Tha mi ag eisteachd ri Reidio nan Gàidheal, I think bha iad a' bruidhinn ball-coise and they mentioned Uruguay! 😀

Skye's first village in more than 100 years could become home to Gaelic speakers and learners.

🏘️ 17 properties in Kilbeg in Sleat have been built near Sabhal Mòr Ostaig - Scotland's National Centre for Gaelic Language and Culture - and the development is to have about 100 homes in total.

There is an expectation Kilbeg will attract Gaelic speakers, though the development is open to anyone who wants to live or work in the area.
