Extractions: Scottish Gaelic - A Brief History Until the 11th century, the language and culture of Scotland were entirely Celtic. The early peoples of Scotland that were referred to as Pictii (Picts) by the Romans are thought by most scholars to have been Brythonic-Celtic speaking peoples. From the 3rd century AD onwards a steady migration of Celtic peoples from Ireland into Scotland had been taking place. By the time of the settlement of the Dalriada kingdom in Argyll, these Irish Celtic tribes were Gaelic-speaking - but the Dalriada settlement was surrounded by Brythonic-speaking Celtic tribes on all sides. The Brythonic Celts called them Gwyddell, which mutated into Goidel and Gael. It is interesting to note that the earliest surviving Welsh poetry, Y Gododdin, was in fact written in southern Scotland by a 6th century poet named Aneurin. From the 9th century raiding parties of Norsemen came to the western coastlands and islands of Scotland. There are accounts of many raids taking place on the early Christian monasteries in the Isles, as the pagan Norsemen went after any riches they could find. As in Ireland, though, the Norsemen eventually settled and inter-married with the Gaelic population, adopting their language and culture. A study of place names in the Western Isles reveals that while the larger coastland settlements derive their names from Norse, the majority of smaller, inland hamlets and nearly all the natural features of the landscape have retained their Gaelic name, or at least have had their Norse name re-Gaelicised. Ultimately, the Norse made very little impact on the Gaelic language spoken in Scotland. We should remember that at this time Scotland possessed a rich Gaelic cultural heritage, which the early Christian Celtic church played no small part in. This was a time when literature, learning, the arts and philosophy flourished.

A Scots Gaelic Primer Part 1
What makes scots gaelic (Gàidhlig pronounced Gah-lick ) so difficult to learnis that there it just doesn't sound like it looks to a native english speaker
http://www.electricscotland.com/gaelic/part1.htm

Extractions: Part 1 by Regional Vice President Jeff MacLeod Ramsden , FSA (Scot) There has been an incredible resurgence of interest in the language of our ancestors in recent times. Thankfully, many people around the world are once again learning the ancient language of the Gael. And for those of you that have tried it, it's not easy, is it? What makes Scots Gaelic (Gàidhlig - pronounced "Gah-lick") so difficult to learn is that there are few people that speak it fluently outside of the Highlands and Islands of Scotland (which makes practicing difficult), coupled with the fact that it just doesn't sound like it looks to a native English speaker. Hopefully, I can help with some of that in this series. Before we begin, I'd like to take a moment to thank Deborah White of Distant Oaks for her assistance with this series. Deborah teaches Irish Gaelic (Gaeilge) and Gàidhlig in the San Francisco bay area of California, USA, and provided lots of help, contributions, and corrections. There really isn't any substitute for having a living, breathing teacher ... If you'd like formal instruction, please let me know and I'll be happy to help you find a teacher in your area. Deborah has an excellent and active mailing list, write her at gaidheal@distantoaks.com

Extractions: Part 2 by Regional Vice President Jeff MacLeod Ramsden , FSA (Scot) Hallo a h-uile duine, ciamar a tha sibh? At long last, I've finally produced the second part of the Scots Gaelic series! Yes, I can't quite believe it, either. I really must apologise for the long delay, but sometimes life gets in the way. Sorry for the annoying lapse. Ready? Let's go! To get us warmed up, let's introduce conjunctions. Conjunctions are words that tie phrases or ideas together, like "and", "or", etc. In Gàidhlig, we say "agus" for "and", "no", for "or." Taking some phrases that we already know from Part I, practise these a few times (I know they sound a bit odd, but I want to use vocabulary that we've already seen so far): English Gàidhlig Sounds Like I am cold and sad Tha mi fuar agus brònach Ha mee foo-ahr ak-us broh-nach Are you cold or hot?

The first language known to have been spoken in Scotland was Pictish. The Picts occupied Scotland north of the Forth. No one knows for certain whether this was a Celtic language or not. There are many indications that it was but these may just be the result of contact with Celtic peoples. Around 300 A.D. the Picts got their name from the Romans who called them Picti . This referred to their supposed habit of painting their faces with blue woad. Picti means the painted people. South west Scotland (Strathclyde) was occupied by a tribe of Britons speaking an ancestral form of modern Welsh a Celtic language, and south east Scotland was part of a Northumbrian kingdom based on the Lothians. These people were the descendants of the Angles who had settled in the north of England. The Saxons on the other hand tended to settle in the south. The (Anglo-Saxon) Dialect spoken by the Angles later became infused with a large amount of Norse. This was brought in by Viking incursions and settlements in Northumbria. This language called

Extractions: Scots is descended from Old Northumbrian , the northern form of Old English (while English is descended from southern dialects). Its speakers had reached the area south of the Forth by the 7th century AD. By this time too, the Gaelic speaking Scots had come from Ireland. They extended their power till, by the 11th century, the King of Scots ruled over most of what is now mainland Scotland, with Gaelic as the dominant language. However from the 11th century, Scotland came under strong southern influences. In the succeeding years, and especially during the reign of
