ALT WHAT IS SCOTTISH GAELIC? Scottish Gaelic is one of three indigenous languages of Scotland, alongside Scots and English. It developed as a distinct language in the 13th Century and was spoken widely until being suppressed during the Highland Clearances in the late 18th Century - about 60k Scots still speak Gaelic today. There is a rich history of heritage, music and folklore surrounding Gaelic and it can be heard today at ceilidhs (traditional dances), which you should definitely look to attend during your time in Scotland! You'll find some common phrases on the next slide, but you can also request a translation in the comments!
