Looking for practical Welsh to Scots Gaelic phrases? This free guide lists 100 essential sentences for travel, study, work, and everyday conversation. Each line shows the Welsh phrase first, then the Scots Gaelic translation (Scots Gaelic) — so you can scan quickly before a trip, class, or video call.

The phrases are grouped into eight topics: greetings and pleasantries, useful phrases for travellers, everyday conversation, directions and getting around, shopping and dining, emergencies and health, work and business, and time, days and numbers. Use the table of contents to jump straight to greetings, directions, dining, emergencies, or numbers.
