An dàrna turas: Gabhaidh sinn an tràigh oirnn!

Take two: We'll take to the beach!

Let’s have a look at this conversation again.

Tiugainn, Iain. Tog ort! Togamaid oirnn dhan tràigh. Come on, John. Move it! Let’s set off [take ourselves off] to the beach.

Och tha mi sgìth an-diugh. Cho sgìth ris a’ chù. A dh’innse na fìrinn, tha mi cho sgìth ri seann chù! Och I’m tired today. As tired as a dog. To tell the truth, I’m as tired as an old dog.
00:00
00:00
Tha thu feumach air beagan àile! Gabhaidh sinn an tràigh oirnn! Nach gabh? You need some air! We’ll take to the beach! Won’t we?
00:00
00:00
Och rinn sinn air an tràigh an-dè. Bha i fliuch, fuar agus mosach. Och we made for the beach yesterday. It was wet, cold and horrible!
00:00
00:00
‘S e latha brèagha a th’ ann. Tha sinn a’ dol a choinneachadh ri Màiri is Anna. Thog iadsan orra dhan tràigh mar-thà! It’s a beautiful day. We are going to meet Màiri and Anna. They’ve set off for the beach already!

00:00
Cha bhi mise a’ cur m’ aghaidh air an tràigh. Chan eil mi ag iarraidh a bhith a-muigh ann an nàdar an-diugh. I won’t be facing (heading for) the beach. I don’t want to be out in nature today.
00:00
00:00
Carson nach eil thu ag iarraidh a bhith a-muigh ann an nàdar? Why don’t you want to be out in nature?
00:00
00:00
Leis gu bheil mi a’ faireachdainn cho aosta ri ceò nam beann—agus tha sinn air a bhith a’ dèanamh cus sreap nam beann cuideachd! Because I feel as old as the mist of the hills [mountains]—and we’ve been doing too much climbing of the hills [mountains]!
00:00
00:00
Cha robh annta ach cnuic! They were only small hills [hillocks]!
00:00
00:00
Uill, tha mise a’ faireachdainn cho sean ri cnoc an-diugh. Well, I feel as old as a small hill [hillock] today.
00:00
00:00
Och, tha thu cho faoin ris na faoileagan! Och, you’re as daft as the seagulls!
00:00
00:00
No cho faoin ris na h-uiseagan! Ach cha bhi mi a’ dol a dh’àite an-diugh! Or as daft as the skylarks. But I will not be going anywhere today!
