Farpais a' Ghiblein! - April Competition!
🖊️✒️🖊️
[English further below]
Tha #sgrìobhi ag amas air cothrom a thoirt do luchd-ionnsachaidh na Gàidhlig a bhith cruthachail leis a' chànan, 's iad a' toirt sùil air an làraich-lìn againn aig an aon àm 🙂
Bho mhìos gu mìos, bidh cuspair ùr ann. Ma bhuannaicheas an sgeul agadsa, thèid fhoillseachadh an seo air an làrach-lìn againn!
Nise…seo an cuspair a th’ againn a thaobh mìos a’ Ghiblein, ’s Didòmhnaich, 27mh dhen Ghiblean aig 11:59f ann mar cheann-ama:
Sgrìobh suas ri 200 facal mu phìos eachdraidh no cultar na Gàidhlig, ’s ceangal cudromach ann ri do bheatha fhèin.
Thèid am buannaiche a thaghadh a rèir nam puingean a leanas: 1. càileachd na Gàidhlig, 2. structar a’ phìos, agus 3. neart a’ phìos san fharsaingeachd.
Seo na riaghailtean eile:
1. Na dìochuimhnich tiotal a thoirt air a’ phìos agad agus a chur tro phost-d gu info@anlochran.com!
2. Faodaidh neach-ionnsachaidh sam bith pàirt a ghabhail - cha leig thu leas a bhith a' fuireach ann an Glaschu
3. Cuiridh sinn fàilte air pìosan le daoine aig a bheil Gàidhlig on ghlùn cuideachd, ach chan fhaod sinn am foillseachadh, leis gur e luchd-ionnsachaidh a tha farpais #sgrìobhi ag amas air
4. Ged nach bi duais ann ma bhuannaicheas tu, thèid am pìos agad fhoillseachadh air an làraich-lìn againn, cuide ri eadar-theangachadh gu Beurla (gus taic a thoirt do luchd-ionnsachaidh eile) agus clàradh-guth
5. A rèir laghan còir-lethbhreac, cumaidh tu na còraichean air an sgeul agad. Chan fheuch An Lòchran ri airgead a chosnadh às gu bràth.
👎 Seo na rudan nach eil ceadaichte: 👎
1. Cha ghabh sinn ri pìosan air an sgrìobhadh ann an cànan eile seach a' Ghàidhlig (tha grunn fhaclan cèin ceart gu leòr, ma tha a' Ghàidhlig na prìomh chànan sa phìos agad)
2. Cha ghabh sinn ri pìosan nas fhaide na 200 facal
3. Cha ghabh sinn ri pìosan a gheibh sinn às dèidh a' chinn-latha
4. Chan eil sanasachd ceadaichte
5. Chan eil cainnt-ghràin ceadaichte
6. Feumaidh am pìos a bhith nad obair fhèin.
Gur math a thèid leat!

#sgrìobhi is aimed at giving the learners among us the opportunity to get creative with the Gaelic language whilst having a browse of the An Lòchran website as well 🙂
Each month, there’ll be a new subject. If your story wins, it’ll be published here on our website!
Now…here comes our April 2025 competition, with a deadline of Sunday 27th April at 11:59pm:
Write up to 200 words about a piece of Gaelic history or culture that has an important connection to your own life.
The winner will be chosen according to these criteria: 1. quality of Gaelic, 2. structure of piece, and 3. overall strength of piece.
Here are the other rules:
1. Don't forget to give your piece a title, and to email it to us on info@anlochran.com!
2. Any learners can take part - you don't have to be living in Glasgow
3. Native speakers are also welcome to submit an entry, but we won't be able to publish it, as #sgrìobhi is aimed at learners of Gaelic
4. Although there's no prize for winning, your piece will be published on our website, along with a translation into English (to help other learners) and a voice recording
5. Under copyright law, you'll retain the rights to your story. An Lòchran will never attempt to monetise it.
👎 Here's what's not allowed: 👎
1. We can't accept entries written in a language other than Scottish Gaelic (the occasional non-Gaelic word is fine, as long as the main language of your story is Gaelic)
2. We can't accept entries longer than 200 words
3. We can't accept entries submitted after the deadline
4. No promotions
5. No hate speech
6. The entry must be your own work.
Good luck!
