An informal talk about some things we don't really know about Gaelic history and linguistics
About this Event

How did Gaelic come to Scotland? How well do Irish and Scottish Gaelic speakers understand each other? How many people in Scotland can speak Gaelic fluently? How many native Gaelic speakers are there? How many people use Gaelic every day? How well do students in Gaelic-medium education speak Gaelic? And more questions that we can't confidently answer.

An informal talk by Ionad chair Wilson McLeod. Open to all!
