THA LEABHAR A’ SOILLEIREACHADH DUALCHAS GÀIDHLIG INBHIR NIS

Ann an leabhar mu dhualchas Gàidhlig Prìomh Bhaile na Gàidhealtachd, tha am fear-naidheachd is craoladair, Ruairidh MacIlleathain, a’ toirt dùbhlan don fhaoinsgeul gur e baile aona-chànanach na Beurla a bh’ ann an Inbhir Nis thairis air na linntean, is gu robh am baile air a sheulachadh gu tur bho shìobhaltachd Cheilteach na Gàidhealtachd a bha ga chuairteachadh. “Airson nan ceudan bhliadhnaichean,” tha Ruairidh ag ràdh, “tha dà chànan air a bhith beò còmhla ann an Inbhir Nis. Bha, is tha, cuid de mhuinntir a’ bhaile aona-chànanach, agus Gàidhlig no Beurla aca, agus bha, is tha, mòran dà-chànanach. Anns an leabhar, tha mi a’ soilleireachadh beagan dhen dualchas co-cheangailte ris a’ Ghàidhlig anns a’ bhaile.”
Chaidh “The Gaelic Place Names and Heritage of Inverness”, a th’ air fhoillseachadh le Foillsichearan Chùil na Càbaig agus air a chur an clò le Highland Printers, a dhèanamh gu lèir ann an Inbhir Nis. Tha e a’ mìneachadh mar a dh’èirich dreach na Beurla a th’ air mòran ainmean-àite bhon Ghàidhlig, leithid Scorguie, Culcabock, Aultnaskiach, Slackbuie, Castle Heather agus Raigmore – agus tha e a’ toirt sùil air ainmean Gàidhlig air grunn rudan air aghaidh na tìre a th’ air a dhol à bith, leithid nan oitirean aig beul Abhainn Nis.
Tha an leabhar cuideachd a’ foillseachadh fianais a sheallas gu robh an cànan gu math làidir am broinn a’ bhaile o shean, a’ cur charactaran mu choinneimh an leughadair a bha aithnichte a-mhàin len ainmnean Gàidhlig, a rèir clàran a’ bhaile - daoine mar Gillespyk McConquhie Roy, Agnes Neyn Fynla Moir, Seun nam Pòcaidean agus Ministear na Feusaig. “Tha sinn air leth toilichte gu bheil an leabhar seo ga fhoillseachadh,” tha Cathraiche Fòram Gàidhlig Inbhir Nis, Brian Ó hEadhra, ag ràdh, “leis gu bheil e a’ cuideachadh ann a bhith a’ dearbhadh do mhuinntir Inbhir Nis ann an 2004 gu bheil dualchas Gàidhlig prìseil is inntinneach aig a’ bhaile aca, às am faod iad a bhith gu math moiteil.”

Is e Ruairidh MacIlleathain fear-naidheachd, sgrìobhadair is craoladair a tha aithnichte do leughdadairean an Inverness Courier mar fhear-cuilbh na Gàidhlig aca gach seachdain.Gheibhear tuilleadh fiosrachaidh mun leabhar air (01463) 220954 no aig info@culcabockpublishing.co.uk

BOOK HIGHLIGHTS INVERNESS’S GAELIC HERITAGE

In a new book about the Gaelic heritage of the Highland Capital, journalist and broadcaster Roddy Maclean challenges the myth that Inverness was always an English-speaking town, hermetically sealed from the Celtic civilisation of the Gàidhealtachd which surrounded it on all sides. “For hundreds of years,” Roddy says, “Inverness has been home to two languages which exist and existed side-by-side. Some of the townsfolk were and are monoglot speakers of either English or Gaelic, and many were and are bilingual. In my book I highlight some of the culture and heritage associated with Gaelic in the town.”
“The Gaelic Place Names and Heritage of Inverness”, published by Culcabock Publishing and printed by Highland Printers, has been produced entirely in Inverness. It explains the origin of the Gaelic place names lying within today’s city boundary – names like Scorguie, Culcabock, Aultnaskiach, Slackbuie, Castle Heather and Raigmore – and explores a number of the Gaelic names for features which have disappeared, such as the mussel scalps at the mouth of the River Ness.
The book also gives evidence for the strength of the language historically within the town, introducing the reader to characters like Gillespyk McConquhie Roy, Agnes Neyn Fynla Moir, Seun nam Pòcaidean and Ministear na Feusaig, who appear in the records only in a Gaelic guise. “We are delighted to see this book being published,” says Chairperson of Fòram Gàidhlig Inbhir Nis, Brian Ó hEadhra, “as it helps to show the people of Inverness in 2004 that their city has a precious and fascinating Gaelic heritage of which they can be proud.”

Roddy Maclean is an award-winning journalist, writer and broadcaster, well-known to readers of the Inverness Courier as the newspaper’s weekly Gaelic columnist. Further information on the publication is available on (01463) 220954 or at info@culcabockpublishing.co.uk
