    What I like the most of Gàidhlig is the mental framing, the mindset. It amazes me the way they think and see the world. it's absolutely different from my mother tongue (spanish) That should never be lost. Thanks for all your work Jason, much appreciated.

    A Dheisean, Tapadh leat a charaid air a shon! Bha mi eòlach air ann(s) le Eileanan; me Bha mi ann am Barraidh an t-Sultainn a chaidh, ach cha robh mi eòlach air air le Ghàidhealtachd. Ach Tha mi de'n bheachd gu bheil am facal diofair ann an Eirinn. Tha thu fìor cheart gu bheil e a' ciallachadh àitenean far a bhruinnear a' Ghàidhlig (Gaelge), ach ann an Albainn the e a' ciallachadh am fearann far an bhuidhinneadh a' Ghàidhlig uair sam bith, ged nach bruidhinnear i an sin fhathast. Cò-dhiubh Tha mi a' faireachdainn gu bheil sin ceart! Dè do bheachd air?

    • @wickedone6476
      @wickedone6476 2 года назад

      Tha sin glè mhath . Choileach.....would that be pronounced like hilloch? That's how it would roughly be pronounced in Irish and I'm still learning the different Gàidhlig vowel and combination vowel sounds , there are a few differences between it and Irish I've come to learn . Is ghallus the wrong word or is choileach just a different word for the same animal ? Gu rabh math agad a charaid. Tha beagan Gàidhlig (Gaedhlig) agam , ach tha mi ag ionnsachadh (go fóill----still)...Tha mi duilich don ceisteanan? agam , tha gaol mòr agam air Ghàidhlig agus Gaedhlig . Tìoraidh ma tha?( for now?) Still learning that one too. There are many things I can say due to the words being the same, but the differences are still there and so I'm forever learning something new.

    • @wickedone6476
      @wickedone6476 2 года назад

      Dà choileach ? That's a wee bit different , in Irish I would have to add the H in there and render it as dhá . The more I learn the more intrigued I become. I'm also taking on the Manx , interesting wee bugger it is , the spelling is what does it. Mostly words sound very similar to Irish and Scottish but the spelling would make a priest pull out his hair and curse his ma . It does seem nearly a perfect blend atwinx the Gàidhlig and Gaedhlig. I can hear a lot of Connemara Irish influence and Gàidhlig as well in the Manx though at the moment I only have a wee bit of the Manx........as for Gàidhlig Gaedhlig and Gaelg , bhuel , gaol ise gaol i . I love learning it no matter how hard it gets sometimes.

  • @FortressofLugh
    @FortressofLugh 2 года назад

    what doesn't make sense to me is why people say "Gaalic" as opposed to "Gaelic". we don't say in English, zhongwen, when talking about the Chinese language. but even more, I don't get the Gaelic pronunciation of this word. "Gaidhealtachd" uses the word preserved in English, Gael, exactly as one expects. you can compare other Gaelic words that have a "gàidh---" and they will sound as "gay". but for some reason this changes in regard to the language? A Gael is pronounced similar to English, yet the language which had the same initial spelling is different. in reality, "Gaidhlig" should be pronounced "Gaelic" based in sound rules and historical pronunciation
