If you have a copy of Scottish Gaelic in 12 Weeks (Roibeard O Maolalaigh) there are several very helpful explanations of independent and dependent forms and tables showing the forms for the verbs being discussed:
page 36, #27a Independent and ...

I didn't realize there had been Can Seo audio recordings. Thank you for the link!

Tapadh leibh!

Mòran taing!
Tha mi an dòchas cuideachd.
Many thanks!
I hope so too!

Hello all,

I’ve been studying Scottish Gaelic for a few years with a Skype tutor in Inverness, Scotland and with distance courses through SMO and AGA. I would like to see if there are other learners near Minneapolis, Minnesota also interested in learning and practicing Scottish Gaelic.

So I set ...
