Tha còig bliadhna deug ann bho thàinig Achd na Gàidhlig gu bith airson suidheachadh na cànain a neartachadh an Alba. Stèidhich an t-Achd Bòrd na Gàidhlig agus bha e na phrìomh amas co-ionnanachd ris a’ Bheurla a thoirt dhan Ghàidhlig ann am beatha làitheil na dùthcha. Tha Alasdair Macleòid a’ faighinn a-mach dè cho soirbheachail sa tha an t-Achd air a bhith, agus a’ dol dhan Chuimrigh airson faicinn ciamar a thathas a’ seasamh chòirichean na Cuimris an sin.
Fifteen years ago the Gaelic Language Act was passed with the aim of strengthening the language in Scotland. The Act also established Bòrd na Gàidhlig and its main aim was to achieve equality with English in daily life. Alasdair Macleod asks how successful the Act has been in arresting the Gaelic language’s decline and travels to Wales to compare how language rights for Welsh are faring there.
