Tuesday’s Phrase

October 22, 2019
  • cia mheud duine cloine a th’ agad? (Ki vewt dinne klewne a HAHK it?) How many children do you have?

NOTES ON PRONUNCIATION:

  • I use the underlined CH to show the hard H sound in the back of the throat, such as in the German ich.
  • The GH is pronounced with less of a hard G than English would use.
  • The EW sound is a softer sound, made with more rounded lips. We really have no English equivalent.
