    About the Language
    Scottish Gaelic, often simply called Gaelic (Gàidhlig), is a Celtic language native to Scotland. Like Modern Irish and Manx, Scottish Gaelic emerged from Middle Irish, and thus ultimately descended from Old Irish. Gaelic is classed as an Indigenous Language under the European Charter for Regional or Minority Languages, and has about 57,000 speakers, primarily in Scotland, with scattered communities in Canada and elsewhere. Efforts to revive the language are being made.
