Last Time (April 22) (back to top)

Warmup:

Cén lá é an lá inniu?

Stuff:

BC 50 review, page 2

We?ve just had a few birthdays amongst us and that led us to talking about comparatives (m.sh: An bhfuil Mícheál níos sine ná Máire?). We haven't talked about them in a while so I whipped out an old PowerPoint and we reminded ourselves of the basics.

Cén aois thú?
How old are you?
Tá mé cúig bhliain is caoga.
I'm 55. (mar shampla/for example)
Ó, tá tú níos óige ná mise.
Oh, you're younger than me.

Obair bhaile:

BC "omnibus" Dialogues 42-45 (e-mailed)
Please think a bit about comparatives, ex: who?s older/younger than whom in class

Previous Class (April 15) (back to top)

Warmup:

Cén lá é an lá inniu?
Cén scéal?

Stuff:

We went through page one of the BC 50 review that was e-mailed out.

Last time we went over the first ten exercises of PI 50's "Cuir Gaeilge air seo," and this time we did the rest -- that's #11-23.

We went off on a number of side conversations and down a few language-related rabbit holes, so that was it for our evening!

Obair bhaile:

Couldn't think of a thing. Bainigí sult as!
