Gaelic resumed

Back to Gaelic study, and restarting from the beginning with Moray Watson's books. Hoping to get a bit more of the vocabulary to stick this time, despite my severe memory problems from my progressive neurological disease! Which really really doesn't help, and eg stops me using things like Duolingo. Also conversational teaching doesn't suit me. On plus much grammar has stuck over the years. I'm surprised how much has stuck. But I need to make a more conscious effort re learning new vocabulary. And increasingly so as my neurological disease progresses. I love Gaelic and its sounds. And was given a Gaelic middle name at birth. Will persevere!
