About Dleab nan Cruithneach/The Legacy of the Picts - University of Aberdeen

Dleab nan Cruithneach: Faclan Cruithnis Be ann an Gidhlig/ The Legacy of the Picts: Pictish Words Alive in Gaelic

Although the Pictish Language is no longer spoken and almost forgotten, much of what has survived has been preserved in place-names and through words adopted into Gaelic from Pictish. In this talk, Tomos Dargie, a Postgrad student at Aberdeen University, discusses these survivals and what they can tell us about Pictish-Gaelic relations.

Ged nach eil a Chnan Chruithneach air a bruidhinn tuilleadh agus cha mhr air a dochuimhneachadh, tha mran den rud a thinig be air a ghleidheadh ann an ainmean-ite agus tro fhaclan a chaidh a ghabhail a-steach don Gidhlig bhon Chruithneach. Anns an raid seo, tha Tomos Dargie, oileanach iar-cheumnach ann an Oilthigh Obar Dheathain, a bruidhinn air na tha air fhgail agus na dhinnseas iad dhuinn mu dhimhean Cruithneach-Gidhlig.
