Ro bheag no ro mhòr?

Too big or too small?

Do you like to try clothing on before you buy it? In this part of the lesson we’ll need some adjectives that we could use to talk about clothing that doesn’t fit right.

goirid (adj)

short

teann (adj)

tight

beag (adj)

small

fada (adj)

long

mòr (adj)

big

fasanta (adj)

fashionable

And an cruth coimeasach (the comparative form) and an cruth feabhasach (the superlative form) can help us with that. You’ll remember we looked at this in the previous lesson, B1 Cuspair 18 (Teicneòlas).

goiridnas giorraas giorra
teannnas teinneas teinne
beagnas lughaas lugha
fadanas fhaideas fhaide
mòrnas mothaas motha
fasantanas fhasantaas fhasanta

Tha mi a’ smaoineachadh gum bi feum agad air muinchillean nas giorra.

I think you’ll need shorter sleeves

Tha thu ceart. Tha iad seo beagan ro fhada dhomh, ach is toigh leam an geansaidh seo gu mòr.

You’re right. These are a little too long for me, but I really like this jumper/jersey.
