Scottish Gaelic is one of six modern Celtic languages, which, like most other European languages, belong to the Indo-European family of languages. The older versions of the modern Celtic languages were spoken in a large part of Europe at the height of Celtic civilization.
The course is designed for anyone who wants to progress quickly from the basics to understanding, speaking and writing Scottish Gaelic with confidence. It consists of 23 thematic units progressing from introducing yourself and dealing with everyday situations to reporting events and making suggestions.
The emphasis is on communication throughout with important language structures introduced through dialogues on the accompanying recording. There are plenty of exercises to practise the language as it is introduced and tips throughout to help with pronunciation and grammar. Cultural information sections give useful advice and information and the book starts with a spelling and pronunciation guide.
Content:
- Learn to speak, understand and write the language
- Progress quickly beyond the basics
- Explore the language in depth
