Here are the Gaelic pronouns and their emphatic case. The emphatic case is used to emphasise a statement or to provide a contrast.

Pronoun Gaelic pronoun   With emphasis  
I / me mi mise
you thu thusa
he / it e esan
she / it i ise
we sinn sinne
you (plural / polite) sibh sibhse
they iad iadsan

 

You – thu & sibh[edit | edit source]

Like other languages, Gaelic has a plural form of ‘you’, which is also used as a polite form when talking to strangers or elders.

It – e & i[edit | edit source]

Gaelic also has gendered nouns, so each object is either masculine or feminine. ‘It’ is represented as ‘e’ or ‘i’. Always check your dictionary to find out the gender of the noun.
