MacLaren's GAELIC SELF-TAUGHT - LEASAN a SEACHD DEUG, part 3 - Gnìomhair Gaoideach IS
Lesson 17, part 3 - The Defective Verb IS
Tha mi a' smaoineachadh gu bheil mi a' tuigsinn an gnìomhair gaoideach IS nas fheàrr a-nis. Uill, tha mi 'n dòchas gu bheil mi a' tuigsinn e nas fheàrr. Chan eil an dòigh nas shìmplidh a bha taisbeanta anns an leasan seo an dòigh às ceirte a chleachdadh an-diugh agus do bhrìgh sin, bidh mi a' cur seachad ùine air thuigsinn ciamar a chleachdadh an gnìomhair gu dòigheal.
{I think I am understanding the defective verb IS better now. Well, I HOPE I'm understanding it better. The simpler way that was shown in this lesson isn't the most correct way to use it today and for that reason I will be spending more time on understanding how to use the verb properly.}
