Hi moon,
Yes, it is about Scottish Gaelic in particular. Gaidhlig is pronounced 'Gallic' when it is Scottish, and 'Gay-lic' when it is Irish. They are different languages with some similar words.
I said 'Tha Gaidhlig Albannach agaibh?' which means 'Do you speak Scottish Gaelic?' Then I said 'Tha Gaidhlig Albannach agam' which means 'I speak Scottish Gaelic'. The next sentence is I don't like Nova Scotia, but I like Scotland.
The one phrase I teach a lot of people is 'Tha mi gle fhliuch' which means 'I am very wet' in Scottish Gaelic. Then they get drunk and shout it at bars!!
The pronunciation of it is very strange. For instance, the first sentence is pronounced "Haa Gaaaallic Alba-knock ack-ave?"
