Gaelic language class notes, 1935

 File
Identifier: Acc.13483

Scope and Contents

Typewritten language class notes, headed: "Notes of instruction by Professor Fraser (of Jesus College, Oxford) to a small class of "beginners" in Gaelic - including Angus McIntosh (later Prof. of Eng. Language, Edin.), Angus Mackintosh (later Sir A.M.) and George Campbell Hay, who was the only Gaelic speaker among us. There may be errors due to my mishearing or misunderstanding. Some pencilled corrections were, I think, made by John Lorne Campbell to whom I later lent this typescript. A.H. Campbell, 23.5.1974."

The notes are on finer points of grammar, and on Gaelic texts read in class.
