I don't see it anywhere. Also, isn't this kind of distracting you from doing Colloquial?

I wouldn't expect you to be able find it. :P

And as for it being a distraction, as I've said before, I'm starting small. Maybe even a sentence or two.

How can I work through it with you if I don't have it, as in fact you expected?

Maybe because I assumed you wouldn't want too? And maybe I put it in the Reading Materials folder, just in case I was wrong?

I'm currently working my way through the first two chapters. I'm almost done with Chapter 1.

Right, it's 7-10 that cause eclipsis. I don't know why I thought it was 6 too. :hmm:

While we're on the subject of numbers, I'm having issues remembering aon bhliain déag and dhá bhliana déag in comparison to bliain and dhá bhliain respectively.

EDIT: Or did I do another typo?

That's what I would have thought. I'll double check CI though.

So it must have been a typo on my part then.

Moving on to Chapter 2! [And, just like the Tibetic study group, I've decided to do away with the check-ins.]

Check-ins?

You mean the schedule in the first post of each thread?
Cé as thusa?

The answer key actually says cé as tusa?, but apparently, that was a typo on their part. Idk, I thought that was kind of interesting because of the discussion on this thread we had about that earlier. :P

EDIT: Oh, and in Munster, it's just cé as duit?.
Is as Scríob ó dhúchas é.

There's no is in this phrase (in the book).
5. chónaí

"Tá mé chónaí i mo chónaí i gCarna freisin"? :P

Should be féin.
6. :?:

They also say in the chapter that lenited forms of the propositional pronouns tend to be used, but they are spelled in the standard way (i.e. not lenited). So......

EDIT: Oh, and in Munster, it's just cé as duit?.

I intend to fully use the appendix when I start actively (re)learning the Munster dialect again. It's got a lot great phrases and such.

But there should be, right? :hmm:

I must have misread it.
