On Thursday 22nd February an East Sutherland Gaelic Heritage Night held at Golspie Heritage Society will feature a special screening of the documentary Mar a Chunnaic Mise: Nancy Dorian agus a’ Ghàidhlig about linguist Professor Nancy C Dorian who spent a large part of her academic career studying the speech of the last speakers of East Sutherland Gaelic. The documentary offers a chance to find out more about her work in the coastal villages of Brora, Golspie and Embo and her enduring friendships with two of the last remaining speakers of this dying dialect.
Following the screening there will be an opportunity for discussion on Gaelic in the area. Attendees are welcome to share any memories they may have of Gaelic in the area.
