Dè mu dheidhinn sùil a thoirt air cuid de na dh’ionnsaich sinn gu ruige seo ma–thà.

A report is an aithris, aithris,

Some people you’ll often hear spoken about in the news include a spokesperson, neach–labhairt, neach–labhairt

and councillors, comhairlichean, comhairlichean

Words you’ll often hear in political stories are disagreement and controversy, eas–aonta / agus connspaid, eas–aonta agus connspaid.

We learned a good way in which to greet people and get information from them at the same time:  What’s your news?

To find out what a particular news story was about it’s:

Cò mu dheidhinn / a bha i? Cò mu dheidhinn a bha i?

We also heard more impersonal verbs, this time in the context of news:

chunnacas, it was seen, chunnacas

And chualas, it was heard, chualas.
