The text Simple Journalling for Gaelic Learners is written on a piece of yellow grid wasahi tape. In the background is an open journal on a green striped floral art paper

Keeping a diary, planner, or bullet journal is a creative way to practice your language skills wherever you are in your Gaelic learning journey. In this beginner-friendly online workshop, you’ll learn how to set up a basic journal while building useful vocabulary like:

  • days of the week and their abbreviations
  • months of the year
  • counting to 31
  • using ordinal numbers (1st, 2nd, 3rd, etc.)
  • practical starter phrases

This online session is designed to be relaxed and accessible, with no prior experience needed. You’ll need a piece of paper handy, something to write with, and a pair of scissors.

All levels of Gaelic are welcome, including complete beginners. English will be used during the workshop.

All participants will receive access to downloadable reference sheets to use after the workshop to help you build your Gaelic journal habit.

Latha math a chàirdean! Ceana a-seo le deagh naidheachd dhuibh:

This fall we are going to continue our dive into the traditional Gaelic story “Pìos dhe ‘n Adhar” with Sionainn ni’n Aonghais Iain Pheadair | Shannon MacMullin! Book your seat now for October 14, 2025 at 7pm Atlantic time.

During Part 1, we read the story together, looked at the vocabulary, and practiced some of the idiomatic language structures.

In Part 2, you’ll join other upper-intermediate and advanced Gaelic learners to dive into this traditional Nova Scotia Gaelic story. Led by Sionainn ni’n Aonghais Iain Pheadair | Shannon MacMullin, a tradition bearer from Cape Breton, we’ll bring the story to life by discussing the use of language in the story to convey imagery, share traditions, and weave connections between people, culture, and place.

Before the session, to make the most of our time together, we kindly ask that you read or re-read the story and come ready to share your thoughts – we won’t be reading it together during the workshop.

Only Gaelic will be spoken during the session.
