Aodh Fairwell to Scots Gaelic? (48) BS: Fairwell to Scots Gaelic? 15 Feb 03


The results are in from the national census of the UK 2001, and its not good reading for Scots Gaels. There are now only 60,000 Gaelic speakers in the UK, if it drops to 50,000 then it offically becomes "dead". If the Gaelic does die then so to does Gaeldom, we could no longer call ourselves Gaels (or celts) and Scotland would lose any link to a celtic origin (yes folks you do have one!) Any hoo I would like to hear any views on this subject,
