Ceithir rudan dh'fheumas duine:
Caraid na bhaile
Mullach os ' chionn
Biadh na lònach
'S deoch dha, na chuach
Còig rudan gheibh gach duine:
Obar ri dhèanamh
Bacadh na rathad
Cìsean ri phàidheadh
Fulang is bàs
...
Four things a person needs:
A friend in his village
A roof o'er his head
Food in his larder
And drink in his cup
Five things every person will get:
Work to do
An obstacle in his path
Taxes to pay
Suffering and death
Ann an tìr nan dall, bidh am fear leth-dhall na rìgh
You don't have to be all-knowing to teach someone a thing or two

Hybrid lecture: 'Medical practitioners in the Medieval Gaelic world: Myth and history’ this Thursday
The University of Edinburgh's John Bannerman Lecture will take place this Thursday, 13 March, in person at 40 George Square at 5:15 pm GMT (= 1:15 pm EDT), with a promised 'hybrid' format. The speaker is Prof Deborah Hayden of Maynooth University, who will discuss the transmission of medical knowledge in Gaelic in late medieval and early modern Ireland and Scotland.
This is a particularly apt subject for a lecture in memory of my former teacher Dr John Bannerman, among whose scholarship was the book 'The Beatons: a medical kindred in the classical Gaelic tradition'.
More information about the lecture, including the link for free tickets (which should get you onto an email list with further information on remote attendance), may be found here:
