As I suspected, there was no Gàidhlig in this week’s episode. I guess it would have pushed the Redcoats over the edge to have to deal with a foreign language in addition to Scots accents. 😉 However, lest we be left completely Gàidhlig-less this week, LearnGaelic was kind enough to publish an Outlander inspired version of their Fichead Facal – 20 words.
We’ve a wee something for those of you who love @Outlander_Starz and @Heughan The #Outlander #Gaelic crib sheet http://t.co/tLmerBm17n

It looks like they also live tweeted some Gàidhlig terms during this week’s episode. I’ll keep an eye out to see if they keep this up in the future.

Be sure to check back next week, I feel it’s pretty safe there will be Gàidhlig in episode 107 – The Wedding. Only six days to go! Look for a post later this week on Appalachian/Southern slang words. This is a special request from Àdhamh who feels about Southern language and accents pretty much the way most of us do about Scots. And face it, it will help pass the time until next Saturday night!
Well, it’s Scots not Gaelic, but I had to look up thrappel!
This is really helpful Mandy. I looked at their App. It seems the only one available is Beginner. There are six brief lessons on a variety of topics…for example, weather.
