Geàrr‑chunntas

Chaidh Iris do Luchd‑ionnsachaidh a chur air bhog gu soirbheachail aig An Lòchran, Glaschu, mar phàirt de chomharrachadh Seachdain na Gàidhlig. Chaidh an iris a chruthachadh le taic bhon phròiseact Ar Dualchas, Ar n‑Àm ri Teachd aig Cùm Alba Bòidheach agus tha e a’ cruinneachadh sgeulachdan agus obraichean bho luchd‑ionnsachaidh Gàidhlig air feadh an t‑saoghail.

B’ e tachartas glè shoirbheachail a bh’ ann air sgàth:

• Com‑pàirteachadh eadar‑nàiseanta bho luchd‑ionnsachaidh ann an Alba, Canada, Na Stàitean Aonaichte, Malta, Cìopras agus Iapan.

• Co-obrachadh eadar com‑pàirtichean mar Oilthigh Dhùn Èideann, An Lòchran agus Cùm Alba Bòidheach.

• Fìor dhealas a nochd sna h‑obraichean a chaidh a thaisbeanadh, a’ sealltainn mar a tha a’ Ghàidhlig uabhasach fhèin beò tro chruthachalachd an luchd-ionnsachaidh.

Thuirt Jonathan Angell, Oifigear-foghlaim is -ionnsachaidh na Gàidhlig aig Cùm Alba Bòidheach, gu bheil an iris a’ toirt àrd‑ùrlar ùr do luchd‑ionnsachaidh gus beachdan agus cruthachalachd a roinn agus gus ceanglaichean eadar coimhearsnachdan Gàidhlig a neartachadh air feadh an t‑saoghail.
