Late, Early, Can't Make Up My Mind!
So, this week our class time came early, so here I am, posting off schedule again. I'm finding that I can remember a few phrases off the top of my head no problem, which is certainly an improvement. The bad news, unfortunately, is that these phrases aren't generally those you want to use in polite company. I really need to stay out of the "Curses" section of the handout I'm using, no matter how fun it is. The lesson this week is probably what you're thinking about this post (not my running), "Tá sé go tapaidh" (tah shay huh tahpee), "He is fast". Thanks for the views, it always surprises me to see how many people are actually reading this. Slainte!

I really like the idea of your project. Its nothing like a lot of other peoples' projects because you are taking on something a lot more challenging than other people. After all, you are learning Gaelic of all languages. Overall, I am sure Mrs. Finco will be excited to see your presentation. Additionally, I would like to see how fluent you are in Gaelic at the end of this project.
ReplyDeleteWell I definitely commend you for making this your 20% time project because learning a language is so difficult! It seems like you are learning and making progress. What always helps is trying to speak that language throughout the day everyday so that way your brain gets used to the language. I'm not sure if you have Dr. Patrick for Latin, but he always talks about effective learning for language and he really says some good stuff. I can't wait to see your end product, I'm sure it'll be fascinating. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteI applaud you for taking on this project. Though it's not easy to learn Gaelic, you're making progress. I love reading your posts! They're full of energy and they're 100% you. You seem very passionate about your project, and I can't wait to see your presentation in December!
