Ann an or ann am?: Through this game, in the answers relating to places of work, you may have noticed that "ann" (in) is sometimes followed by "am" and sometimes by "an".
E.g. ann am bùth - in a shop but ann an oifis - in an office.
Which to use is determined by the following letters b, p, m, and f. "Am" is used before these letters and "an" before others.
There are also examples of this in Places of work. 'S e and tha: In Gaelic the words yes and no cannot always be expressed as "Tha" and "Chan eil". Positive and negative responses must sometimes bring in inflection of the verb. This can be seen through this game: Tha mi ag obair... - I work... but 'S e dotair a th' annam. - I am a doctor.
Other examples of this can be found in the game Night on the town.
