Stòras Beò: Pàdruig

Pàdruig MoireachPàdruig Moireach brings a new Leòdhasach voice to the Guthan nan Eilean site with this recording made with Archie Campbell. An experienced teacher of Gaelic, Pàdruig’s also been closely involved with sociolinguistic fieldwork in the Western Isles in recent years, working for Soillse, Sabhal Mòr Ostaig, and the UHI Language Sciences Institute.

A Lewisman now based in Inverness, he’s worked in different fields and travelled widely, as you’ll hear in this recording.

Pàdruig and Archie have both been training up to take part in Soillse’s Stòras Beò nan Gàidheal project. Part of that training included conducting practice interviews on each other. We’ve already shared Pàdruig’s interview of Archie. Here the tables are turned, and it’s his turn in the hot seat!
