Gaelic with Jason

Gaelic with Jason

2 роки тому

How do we talk about doing things regularly in the past, like routines, hobbies, or trips? It's a little bit different from using 'Bha'. This video will show you the pattern and give you many examples, so that it starts to feel more natural to you. Your Gaelic will be more impressive once this becomes second nature to you.

Halò. ‘S e Seòras an t-ainm a th’ orm. Tha mi à Alba (I hope I got that right!). I decided at the age of 54 that it was about time I learned how to speak my mother tongue as it wasn’t taught in school when I was growing up. It’s insanely difficult (made worse by cognitive difficulties due to MS), but incredibly rewarding and I’m having a ball. Tha Gàidhlig na cànan glè bhrèagha. Mòran taing, Jason. 🙏🏻😎🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Hi Jason! I recently took a trip to Prince Edward Island and I made it a quest of mine to find some evidence of Scottish Gaelic on the island. I went to a museum and found a book of the old testament I believe written entirely in Gaelic! Then I went to a Scottish heritage presentation to learn about the Scottish Settlers and how they brought Gaelic to Canada way back. Finally while walking through downtown Charlottetown, I found a plaque outside of an old church written in English, French, Mi'kmaq, and yes... Scottish Gaelic! It is so cool that this amazing language still holds a significant presence in this country with it still being widely spoken in Nova Scotia. I thought you might find this little story interesting 😁

Wonderfully helpful, as always....and yes, the ah-ha (or would that be ceart math cha...lol) moments do happen with the way you teach. I do miniatures and handmade books on my channel, and made a kit of historic miniature books (combo!)...one of which was a journal from the 1800's in Gaidhlig, and kept getting distracted while creating the kit in Photoshop because I was recognizing so many words and phrases. Made me realize I had learned more than it feels like I have so far, thanks to you, if that makes sense. I talk about it in the video how-to for the kit, especially the spelling/pronunciation barrier for English speakers trying to use phonetics....just don't. :P The way you pointed out aid being itch just now is super helpful, since my brain then connected itch and first aid as a mnemonic, which I really hope sticks! My question though is, would your other example become a' char-brog or a' brog-char? :D Tapadh leibh, a charaid!

Greetings Jason, Your videos have been quite helpful in learning Gaelic, going from no knowledge to having a much greater understanding of Gaelic over the past 6 months. It has been fairly easy until now. But I am really struggling with the use of am, an, an-t, e. There is something basic that I seem to have missed and I often use the wrong one or put them in the wrong place in a sentence. I would happily sign up for some lessons but I understand you are not taking any new students.

I saw your video with the 8 words. I found it interesting when you underlined th 1st 2 letters "Di" You explained that in gaelic it sounds like the letter "j." I think it would be helpful for beginners to have you do that with similar words. Hearing it didn't help me. When you explained it It did help.

Thank you for these videos. I've always leanrt languages like this. I miss this way of explaining structures in modern courses. I find them essential. They are the foundation to go from. Also, you have a talent to make this fun and that's the best way to keep the lesson in our memory. Wish I had someone like you speaking, excercizing Gaelic with me. Here in the Highlands of Bavaria, chances to meet a Gaelic speaking person are about the same as running into a unicorn.

Weirdly enough, Irish uses 'tú' normally and 'thú' occasionally for grammatical reasons, while Gàidhlig uses 'thu' normally and 'tu' occasionally for grammatical reasons. I have always wondered what led the languages to create rules that are the exact opposite of one another.

I think of it as putting the key into the car's ignition. It's the first step but it won't take you fully to your destination (spontaneous fluency, as I see it). Some folk seem to like the competitive aspect and others like the convenience of an app. It'll help you tune your ear to how native speakers sound for sure. 🙂 Do you use Duolingo yourself?
