Pronouns
Knowing your own pronouns and those of others can be extremely helpful for beginning to improve your Gaelic. Below is a list of all the pronouns you can use in Gaelic.
Some words may not be on this list as there is not a strong correct term in Scottish Gaelic, but language is always evolving and we will keep this page up to date.
