Celtic Studies (01/27)

"Madainn mhath, a chlas," Camulus begins, as always. "I would like you to present your conversations. I believe that it was Belthazor and Miss Alexander, and Mr. Macbeth and Mr. Scissorhands. We'll be done with those first. For the rest of the class we will be watching An Ceasnachadh: Interrogation of a Highland Lass. It's mainly in Gaelic, but had English subtitles, and deals with the interrogation of a young girl about her involvement in the theft of the Stone of Scone, and the interrogating officer's frustation with her incomprehension of English and her intense nationalism.

"You may begin your presentation any time."

[[Feel free to 'they did their presentation and mispronounced half of it'. I'm off to bake cookies, back in a bit.]]

Macbeth glances at Edward, somewhat at a loss. He wasn't entirely sure that the pointy-appendaged student was comfortable with the language enough to have a conversation in front of the class, but he would do his best to guide him along.
Even if his own accent was thicker than the hide on a mule and was probably bound to throw the poor lad off even more.

Bel seems very unhappy as he comes to class that morning, but does his part of the presentation, mangling only about a quarter of the words.
