Comedy in Gaelic
Comadaidh sa Ghàidhlig
Laughter is good for you, as they say in Gaelic, and indeed there is plenty in Gaelic that would make you laugh!
There are many comedy programme in Gaelic on BBC ALBA, such as OMC!, FUNC, Ran Dan and Comadaidh Oir.
Very funny things can also be heard at the Mòd between children's stories and drama as well as comedy competitions on the Mòd fringe.
Why don't you have a go at this task! If you have a Gaelicspeaking friend, you could do this together. If you don't—no problem—you can have double the fun!
