[am broinn an tighe]
-
Cha bhitheadh móran, gheibheadh tu do chreach airson cluiche no caoch am broinn an tighe. Ach bhiodh againn seòrsa de chluicheannan, no seòrsa de lùth-chleasan, mar: 1. A’ tighinn troimh a’ chlobha. 2. A’ tighinn troimh a’ bhata. 3. Ag eirigh leis an eallach aotrom. ’S mar sin. Dh’fheumainn iad seo shuas a shealltainn.
