Seonag | Uill, Iain. Ma tha sinn a' dol a phòsadh, feumaidh mise aodach ùr fhaighinn. Dh’fhaodainn an dreasa seo fheuchainn orm. Chan eil i dona. | Well, John. If we are going to marry, I need to get new clothes. I could try this dress on me. It isn’t bad. |
Iain | Chan eil. Tiugainn ma-thà. | No. Come on then. |
Staff | Seadh? | Yes? |
Seonag | An tèid agaibh air an dreasa bhrèagha gheal a shealltainn dhomh? Tha i anns an uinneig ri taobh an dorais. | Will you be able to show me that the beautiful white dress? It’s in the window beside the door. |
Staff | Uill, dh’fhaodainn ach chan eil a’ bhùth seo saor. | Well, I could but this shop isn’t cheap. |
Iain | Och, a ghràidh. Chan eil rud sam bith saor a-nis. An tèid agad air an dreasa fhaighinn dhuinn ma-thà? Siuthad. | Och, dear. Nothing is cheap now. Will you be able to get the dress for us then? On you go. |
Staff | An e seo an dreasa? | Is this the dress? |
Seonag | ’S e. Tha i nas motha na bha mi a’ smaoineachadh. Tha mise còig troighean agus ceithir òirlich a dh’àirde. Tha seo ro fhada dhomhsa. | Yes. It’s bigger than I thought. I’m five feet and four inches tall. This is too long for me. |
Iain | Fuirich thusa dà dhiog, a ghràidh. | You wait two seconds, dear. |
Seonag | Ach Iain. | But John. |
Iain | Fuirich. Ma chuireas tu brògan àrda ort, cha bhi an dreasa ro fhada dhut idir. A bheil brògan brèagha geala agad? Meudachd a ceithir? Agus ceithir no còig a dh’òirlich a dh’àirde? | Wait. If you put high heeled shoes on, the dress won’t be too long for you at all. Do you have beautiful white shoes? Size four? And four or five inches high? |
Staff | Chì mi. | I’ll see. |
Iain | Dè tha ceàrr ort? | What’s wrong with you? |
Seonag | Cha toigh leam an dreasa idir. | I don’t like the dress at all. |
Staff | Dè? | What? |
Seonag | Brògan geala? | White shoes? |
Iain | Cha toigh leam na brògan sin idir. Chan eil iad àrd gu leòr dhomhsa. | I don’t like those shoes at all. They aren’t high enough for me. |
Iain | A bheil brògan nas àirde na sin agaibh idir? | Do you have higher shoes than those at all? |
Staff | Seo na brògan as fheàrr a th’ againn. | These are the best shoes we have. |
Iain | Uill, thèid sinn a bhùth eile ma-thà. Thugainn. Thèid sinn sìos gu Harrods. Bidh brògan àrda acasan. | Well, we’ll go to another shop then. Come on. We’ll go down to Harrods. They’ll have high-heeled shoes. |
