Can I learn Gaelic anywhere online
« on: Tuesday 07 April 15 21:58 BST (UK) »
Please excuse the use of English but I would like to try learning Gaelic, online if possible. Can anyone suggest a site, or failing that a good text book. If someone would translate this into Gaelic so as not to offend sensibilities, I would be most grateful.

can only translate into Irish

Ba mhaith liom Gaeilge na hAlban a fhoghlaim.
An bhfuil suíomh ar an idirlíon?
