Great episode, thank you very much!

Interesting. Ive seen a few germans learning the language. I wonder what the pull is.

[@herbertdeniro]

@@andrewjennings7306 I love Scotland so much and visit twice a year. I am interested in just everything about the Country. Food, Sports, Culture etc. Can‘t stand the fact that gaidhlig is about to die.

Tapadh leat! Is there a way to learn spelling pronunciation? I find that to be the hardest part.

[@SpeakGaelic]

Is there a list of the Gaelic phrases/sayings that are introduced at the start of each Episode?

[@SpeakGaelic]

Hi Màiri Ann, Can we check what you mean? Do you mean when Joy introduces the show? If you mean from the programme and what she teaches, have you checked out the website? They are all there and we have many more examples which show you how to build on the phrases
