Tha mi toilichte a chluinntinn …

I'm happy to hear …

Tha mi toilichte a chluinntinn gu bheil | nach eil … (I’m glad to hear that … | that isn’t …) is a very common and useful expression, but it contains a grammar point that is worth looking at.

Read this little conversation below first:

Tha mi toilichte a chluinntinn gu bheil i nas fheàrr a–nis.

I’m pleased to hear that she is better now.

Tha is mise. Sin an naidheachd a bha sinn ag iarraidh a chluinntinn.

So am I. That’s the news (that) we wanted to hear.

MÌNEACHADH | EXPLANATION:

Bu toil leam snàmh anns an loch an dèidh a’ chlas.

I would like to swim in the loch after class.

And remember we saw this earlier:

Chaidh Iain a shnàmh.

John went swimming.
