sgùil
-
Bha an sgùil deanta mar seo: cearcall iaruinn agus lìon, agus am biadhadh air sreing ann am meadhon na sgùile. Bha àrc bìdeag an àirde bho an sgùil air sreang a’ bhiadhaidh airson am biadhadh a dheanamh faicsinneach do an ghiomach. Nuair a bhatar a’ tarruing na sgùilean, bha thu ’g a tarruing cho luath agus a dheanadh do làmhan agus do bhodhaig dhuit. Nuair a bha an giomach am broinn na sgùile, agus a bha i air a gluasad bho’n ghrunnd agus air a’ tarruing troimh an fhairge gu cabhagach, bha an giomach ag greimeachadh ris an nì a bh’aige agus cha charaicheadh e, gu’m beireadh am fear-tarruing air. Nam biodh an sgùil air a tarruing slaodach, bha e toirt cothrom do an ghiomach smaoineachadh de bha tachairt, agus an sgùil fhàgail. Chanadh iad na ‘cearcaill’ ann an àiteachan ris an t-seòrsa uidheam-iasgaich-sa. Tha eachdraidh nam ball-sa gu mionaideach aig Niall M’Dhòmhnaill, fear raoin Chùil-fhodair. Cumadh na sgùile: [see illustration]. An sgùil air a’ ghrunnd: [see illustration].
