Beste ollegoare,

Ik ben naar Schotland geweest, o.m; naar Mull! Fantastische reis! En
vriendelijke mensen, die Hooglanders!! En natuurlijk ook whisky gedronken,
meer bepaald uit het zo mooie Tobermoory...

Wat nu GALORE betreft. In  het Gaelic:

plenty = gu leor;
money = airgead, airgid;

woordvolgorde in het Gaelic meestal:  1. subst. 2. adj.

gu leor komt achteraan met de betekenis "genoeg" (enough)

Henry was now pleased enough: Bha Henry a nise toilichte gu leor.
Toilichte (pleased) gu leor (enough)

Toetnoasteki,

Roland Desnerck
