Guthan Beaga (Small Voices)

Start learning Scottish Gaelic with Bòrd Na Gaidhlig's Guthan Beaga for Android.

This mobile application is designed to be used in conjunction with the Guthan Beaga website which can be found at www.guthanbeaga.co.uk.

Guthan Beaga is designed to introduce the parents of very young children enrolled in (Scottish) Gaelic Medium education to useful words, phrases, and pronunciation relating to the Scottish Gaelic language. However, it may also be useful for those who are very new to the language and are finding it hard to learn in isolation - particularly with pronunciation.

This application allows content to be used and managed offline so that parents can make the best of the resource.

Please note that to make use of this application's features you will need to download multimedia content from the web. We recommend that you should only do this when you are connected to the internet by WiFi, as downloading large files over the mobile network can cost you money. Once downloaded, the content will remain on your device and will be available whenever you need it without having to access the internet.

This is the first release of Guthan Beaga for Android, so please bear with us. If you experience any problems with the application on your device then please contact us with your issue before giving negative feedback. We will do our best to fix any problems that you may have and in the process help to support the Gaelic language.
