Host: Shonagh lives and teaches in Inverness but comes from Caithness originally. Gaelic isn’t spoken commonly there and as such, Shonagh learnt Gaelic as an older teenager and later at university in Glasgow and Aberdeen. This helps her to understand just how tricky language learning can be!There are basics that everyone learns when studying a new language and one of them is describing places. This class will go over how to describe places using the correct adjectives. Students will be able to ask others about where they live and understand what they say in return, in detail. This beginners class will allow students to expand your conversation skills when talking about where you live and understand a good number of adjectives about places.
