ME: <<<“Alice's Adventures in Wonderland” into Shetland Scots Gaelic>>>
WB: AFAICT, Laureen Johnson's translation has nothing to do with Gaelic,
which is not mutually intelligible with any variety of English. In a
similar vein, many (if not most) Anglophones think that Irish Gaelic is
just English with a brogue.
