--- title: "Leabhar-latha – Homework for Lesson 4" date: 2014-10-23T07:31:48Z Blog: ["Kilted Scot"] category: - "Gàidhlig" - "Gaelic" - "notes" - "term1" - "week4" image: ["/images/IMAG0613_1-edited.jpg"] Type: ["article"] draft: false --- Whilst there will be no notes for last week’s class (due to me being absent) the tutor was kind enough to send me the homework task. So this week I have to keep a diary in Gaelic for a week with at least two sentences in past tense. Here goes! Hold on to your hats! With my beginner’s knowledge of Gaelic and my insomnia-ridden, work-driven dull week this promises to be a roller-coaster of a journey. Most likely a roller-coaster which is closed for maintenance.
