Description
Scottish Gaelic: A Comprehensive Grammar is a thorough guide to the language, covering both formal and colloquial forms. The book presents an authoritative account of modern Gaelic grammar, including useful observations on dialectal and register differences.
It demystifies nuances of the language that many users find opaque, according to recent research. The book is structured to address the diverse needs of its intended audience, with basic information presented first, followed by increasingly detailed information for more advanced users.
Brimming with authentic examples, the volume accommodates readers of all levels, from complete beginners to professional linguists. It is both an ideal textbook for structured coursework and an indispensable companion for independent study.
