For those interested, I've included some websites to hear spoken Gaelic
as well as places to order learning materials to include videos and
books. The list is not exhaustive but will give you a good start.
Regardless of what the titles say, Gaelic is not "easy" to learn but
with patience and work, you will learn it. Sabhl Mor Ostaig's "Speaking
Our Language" is a series of learning materials that include books,
audio and video tapes and one CD.

Seumas Watson, listed on the Cape Breton page will converse with you
over the phone for $20 (Canadian) per hour.

Jamie MacDonald lives in NC and will offer private or group lessons and
lessons via the phone. Contact him at:

If you're interested in a gaelic group in the Fayetteville, NC area,
contact me by email at:
