Às m’ aonais

Without me

We first saw in Cuspair 5 that we combine compound prepositions with the possessive adjectives: mo, do, a, a (h–), ar (n–), ur (n–), an/am. As we saw with ri taobh, airson, os cionn, we do this by adding the possessive adjective between the two parts of the compound preposition: às m’ aonais (without me), às d’ aonais (without you), às ar n–aonais (without us). Like other compound prepositions, when used with a noun às aonais causes the noun to be in the genitive (possessive) case:

às aonais + miàs m’ aonais
às aonais + thuàs d’ aonais
às aonais + eàs aonais
às aonais + iàs a h–aonais
às aonais + sinnàs ar n–aonais
às aonais + sibhàs ur n–aonais
às aonais + iadàs an aonais

An siùbhladh tu ann às m’ aonais?

Would you travel there without me?

An do dh’fhalbh iad às ar n–aonais?

Did they leave without us?

Chaidh ise ann às aonais an airgid!

She went without the money!

Am b’ fheàrr leat siubhal a bhaile–mòr thall thairis no a bhaile–beag ann an Alba?

Cò shiùbhladh leat no an rachadh tu nad aonar?
