Càit a bheil thu a’ dol? (Where are you going?)

Melodaidh and Seanair are having a chat about where Seanair had been the previous day. You’ll recognise the past tense from some of the words you’ll have come across in previous lessons.

Melodaidh	Halò. Càit an robh sibh an-dè? Hello. Where were you yesterday?
Seanair	Bha mi air chuairt I went on a trip
Melodaidh	Oh? Càit an deach sibh? Oh? Where did you go?
Seanair	Chaidh mi dhan Mhonadh Ruadh I went up Cairngorm
Melodaidh	Glè mhath! Very good!
