The video has been online for a few months now, but there&#8217;s been a new development &#8211; the addition of CC subtitles (which you can switch on or off, according to taste). This has been made possible following meticulous extra work by Maighread to transcribe the entire video so that it can be added to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uhi.ac.uk\/en\/research-enterprise\/res-themes\/humanities-and-arts\/language-sciences-institute\/projects\/storas-beo-nan-gaidheal\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">St\u00f2ras Be\u00f2 nan G\u00e0idheal<\/a> collection.
