Baile Amsterdam
Seumas and his friend Calum live in Partick,
Glasgow. One of their classmates, Donald, has
recently moved to Amsterdam and they are keen to
meet up with him again. They have both worked
hard throughout their school summer break in
restaurants in Glasgow’s popular West End, in
order to fund their proposed four-night break.
Neither Seumas nor Calum have travelled to Europe before, and they
are enthusiastic about finding out about Amsterdam before they go.
Read below some of the information that Seumas has printed off about
the city of Amsterdam as he begins his research on the city and its
many attractions.
Part A
’S e baile mòr a th’ ann an Amsterdam, ach chan eil e ro mhòr. Tha
tòrr thaighean-bìdh ann, tha dòighean-siubhail math ann ach, fhathast
tha e sàmhach agus bòidheach. Tha aibhnichean brèagha ann agus chan
eil tòrr trafaig ann. Tha baile Amsterdam làn eachdraidh agus tha tòrr
rudan ann ri dhèanamh.
Based on the information you are given, indicate whether the f ollowing
statements are true or false.

Cha bhi na bùithtean ann an Amsterdam a’ fosgladh gu mu dheich

tòrr uisge ann.

Dòighean-siubhail diofraichte
Calum decides to look at travel within Amsterdam. They would like to
get around the city quickly but cheaply!
Part A
Tha e nas fhasa siubhal ann an Amsterdam air na
tramaichean. Tha iad luath agus chan fheum thu feitheamh
fada airson tram. Faodaidh tu ticead fhaighinn bhon
draibhear, air an tram fhèin, bho bhùth nam pàipearan no
bho Oifis a’ Phuist.

2.
List the four ways in which you can buy a ticket.

Part B
Tha e nas luaithe siubhal air baidhsagal ann an
Amsterdam. Faodaidh tu baidhsagal fhaighinn air màl
aig prìs reusanta. Feumaidh tu a bhith faiceallach nach

Part C
Chan eil dràibheadh an seo ro shàbhailte oir tha
dràibhearan gòrach ann! Tha e nas sàbhailte trèana a

7.
Is car hire cheap or expensive?

Part D
Chan eil meadhan bhaile Amsterdam ro mhòr, mar sin tha e
furasta coiseachd bho àite gu àite. Coisich mun cuairt agus
cumaidh e fallain thu, agus chì thu na togalaichean brèagha
cuideachd. Feumaidh tu a bhith faiceallach oir tha
dràibhearan ann nach stad aig solais dhearg!

Transcript
The following passage is an extract from a tourist guide
on Amsterdam that Calum has been reading. You will
hear information on Amsterdam Airport.
Listen to the passage as many times as necessary in order to answer the
associated questions.
Èisteachd
’S e Schiphol an t-ainm a th’ air port-adhair Amsterdam. Tha e glè
fhaisg air meadhan a’ bhaile. Tha e mu chairteal na h -uarach a-mach à
meadhan a’ bhaile.
Tha trèanaichean a’ dol air ais agus air adhart eadar am port -adhair
agus meadhan a’ bhaile a h-uile ochd mionaidean. Cosgaidh trèana gu
meadhan a’ bhaile 22€. Chan eil na trèanaichean daor!
Cosgaidh tagsaidh 35€ ach bidh e slaodach, oir tha an rathad chun
phort-adhair glè thrang le trafaig. Chan eil na tagsaidhean saor idir,
idir!
’S e port-adhair fìor mhath a th’ ann oir tha tòrr bhùithtean diof raichte
ann. Gheibh thu diofar ghibhtean annta mar teòclaid, càise, deoch agus
aodach fasanta. Tha na bùithtean anns a’ phort-adhair gu math daor!

’S e Vincent Van Gogh an t-ainm a th’ orm. ’S ann às an
Òlaind a tha mi agus rugadh mi ann am baile Groot Zundert, air an tricheadamh là den Mhàirt, anns a’
bhliadhna 1853.
’S e an t-ainm a th’ air m’ athair, Theodorus agus ’s e ministear a bh’
ann. ’S e Anna an t-ainm a th’ air mo mhàthair. Tha sia peathraichean
agus dithis bhràithrean agam.
Bha mi ag obair ann am bùth leabhraichean agus bha mi nam mhinistear
airson greis, ach cha do chòrd na h-obraichean sin rium idir!
Chaidh mi gu Baile Mòr Paris agus dh’fhuirich mi còmhla ri mo
bhràthair Theo. Thòisich mi a’ peantadh anns a’ bhliadhna 1878, ach
ann an 1888 ghluais mi gu Provence agus thòisich mi a’ cleachdadh
dathan soilleir.

16. An taigh aig Dòmhnall
Donald’s mum shows the boys to their room and gives
them a tour of the ground floor of the house. In order
to make them feel more at home. See if you can draw
a plan of the ground floor based on the information
she gives.
Seo sinn anns a’ chidsin!
Ma thèid thu gu do làimh chlì lorgaidh tu an taigh-beag agus am fras.
Ma chumas tu ort a-mach às a’ chidsin, thig thu chun t-seòmar-suidhe.
Ma thèid thu tron t-seòmar-suidhe, tha seòmar-ithe ann.
Ma thig thu a-mach às an t-seòmar-suidhe, tha an seòmar-cadail agaibh
air do làimh dheis.

Seumas chats to his sister about his trip and the things he has
been doing since he arrived.
Listen carefully to the excerpts from Seumas’s phone call
home on the second day of his holiday and answer the
questions which follow.
A.
Halò Ealasaid! Is e do bhràthair Seumas a th’ ann! Tha mi gu
math. Tha mo thuras a’ còrdadh rium math dha-rìreabh oir tha tòrr
spòrs air a bhith againn!
B.
Tha an t-sìde brèagha. Tha i grianach agus teth. Chan eil gaoth
ann idir.
C.
Chaidh sinn air turas bhaidhsagal an-dè. Chòrd e rium uabhasach
math! Chaidh sinn tro meadhan a’ bhaile agus sìos ri taobh
Abhainn Amstel.
D.
An-diugh chaidh sinn chun taigh aig Anna Franc. Bha latha
inntinneach againn. Chunnaic sinn an leabhar-là aig Anna agus
choimhead sinn air fiolm mu deidhinn fhèin agus an teaghlach
aice.
E.
Tha sinn a’ dol a-mach gu biadh agus chun taigh-dheilbh. Bu toil
leam fuireach ann an Amsterdam!

19. A’ ceannach anns na bùithtean
Calum puts an entry in his diary for day three of his trip.
Read the entry and answer the questions on the following
page.
An-diugh chaidh sinn gu ionad bhùithtean ainmeil ann an
Amsterdam. ’S e am Magna Plaza an t-ainm a bh’ air. Dh’fhosgail an
t-ionad seo anns a’ bhliadhna 1992.
’S e togalach mòr agus spaideil a bh’ ann. ’S e oifis-puist a bh’ ann
bho chionn bhliadhnaichean. Chan eil na bùithtean ann an Glaschu
coltach ris idir!
Tha na bùithtean air trì ìrean agus tha staidhre-ghluasadach ann eatarra.
Bha a h-uile seòrsa bùth ann agus chosg sinn tòrr airgid!
