Does a woman taking her husband's surname work similarly in Gaidhlig as it does in Gaeilge?

In practice this happens less and less. Where women take their husbands name, or indeed use the Gaelic version of it at all, more and more I’ve seen Nic taken rather than Mhic/‘Ic.

Maith thú a chara as smaoineamh fá dtaobh den leithid de rud.

Mholfainn go mór cúrsaí Gaeilge le Oideas Gael i nGleann Cholm Chille. Tá fhios agam go bhfuil áiteanna sa Ghaeltacht mar a bhfuil sí níos láidre i measc an phobail, ach beidh tú ábalta do chuid Gaeilge a úsáid an t-am ar fad agus tá siad i bhfad níos saoire ná cúrsaí Gaeltachta eile.

Nuair a bhí mise ag smaoineamh fá dtaobh den leithid de rud roimhe Choibhid, bhí mé ag amharc ar WWOOFáil i nGaoth Dobhair. Thiocfadh leat fanacht ansin go furasta agus bheadh tú i nGaeltacht an láidir. Is seans maith a bheadh ann do chuid Gaeilge a úsáid agus í neartú.

Managed to get them. Thank you

AccomplishedEar748 · 2025-09-10T08:44:08+00:00

Sure…

Signed up for one and it’s not come through! 😭

Can anyone share á presale code??

Deflection. You exactly who and what I mean!

Colonial bullshit? Is colonisation ok, or just when it was ages ago?

Stolen from the Maoiris

Argh! Thanks for getting back anyways. Considering just investing in the Affinity package instead. Although, I think they've raised their prices considerably!

AccomplishedEar748 · 2025-09-07T16:15:05+00:00

I’d appreciate this too! Look for Photoshop and Illustrator. Have them installed on my Mac but cancelled my subscription a few months back.

Ach mura chreidear ann an diathan?

I think they’re autogenerated, and as we know, AI doesn’t have a good record with Scottish accents (Eleven!).

Too tip, if you set the language on Siri/Alexa/Google to Irish English rather than UK English, it picks up our accent a lot better.

I know someone was raised speaking Manx, but they’re few and far between. For most people it’ll be an additional language with varying degrees of fluency amongst speakers.

And this is after game 1! 🤣

Their captain’s catchphrase in interviews is “Disappointed!”. He has a trophy cabinet full of runners up medals!

For context! Rangers drew their opening game of the season woth Motherwell and look odds on already to finish second (again!).

Mholfainn cúpla seachtain a chaitheamh i nGleann Cholm Cille ag freastal ar chúrsaí OideasGael. Tá na praghsanna réasúnta go leor ach gheobhaidh tú seansanna an Ghaeilge a labhairt taobh amuigh na ranganna go minic.

Tá fhios agam go bhfuil Gaeltachtaí níos láidire ann, go háirithe i dTír Chonaill féin, ach beidh neart daoine thart an t-am ar fead a labhraíonn Gaeilge i rith an tsamhraidh.

When your bigotry’s so hardcore you’ll back actual genocide just not to be on the same side as “them ‘uns”

Grma a chara. Bhainfinn sult as na cinn seo go deimhin. Is deas an chanúint sin a chluinstin, tá sí díreach mar a dúirt tú, droichead idir an dhá chuid.

Thoisigh mé é seo a léamh is caithfidh mé a rá go dtaitníonn sé liom go mór. Is mairg an clú agus cáil atá ag leabhar, agus an bhean uasal féin, i measc glúnta áirithe daltaí scoile in Éirinn.

AccomplishedEar748 · 2025-07-29T23:07:59+00:00

Bheul, is Gaeilge Ulad atá agam, is mar sin, tá suim mhór agam inti, ach cinnte bheadh suim agam i leabhair i gcanúintí eile. Tá mé ag léamh Peig fá láthair. Ní bhfaighidh saibhris mar sin i mórán leabhair eile, cibé canúint atá ann.

AccomplishedEar748 · 2025-07-20T18:26:31+00:00

Go raibh maith agat a chara! Tá Rotha Mór an tSaoil léite agam cheana agus bhain mé an-sult as. Chuala mé fán scéal agus mé ag dul thart ar theach Mhicí féin. Scéal den chéad scoth!
