\"\"<\/a>Local community voices are finding some interesting new platforms from which to make themselves heard. In addition to the recently launched Guthan\/Voices<\/a> page on Am P\u00e0ipear several new blogs have been started, (including audio-blogs!).<\/p>\n

Gaelic tutor Archie Campbell started writing “C\u00f2 ach esan?”<\/a> with Blogspot some months back, but has just recently started adding Ipadio phonecasts – which allows him to complement his texts with recorded speech. That’s very helpful for Gaelic learners who need to hear what the language actually sounds like.<\/p>\n

Loriana Pauli has just started writing “From the Water’s Edge”<\/a> in English on WordPress, but also including audio links from her new Ipadio channel.<\/p>\n

And the Gaelic learners in Berneray now have a class blog, “Guthan Bhe\u00e0rnaraigh”<\/a>, also on WordPress. The first written contribution is by Rita Dix, on her 1985 meeting with Prince Charles.<\/p>\n

All these “new voices” promise to provide interesting material to share – whether directly from their own sites or channelled through Am P\u00e0ipear<\/a>, our local community paper. If anyone else locally would like to try out making their own contribution but is unsure how to get started, then please contact Gordon Wells on 07879 644984.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
