This extremely useful book was written with the purpose of not only explaining the formation and function of all parts of the Gaelic verb, but also to go beyond the frequently terse descriptions given in most course books. Its 165 pages are packed with step-by-step explanations, numerous examples in a wide range of registers, and copious notes. Within its covers you will find help with all those aspects of Gaelic verbs which can be so troublesome to learners, including Verbal Nouns, the Assertive Verb, Defective Verbs and Irregular Verbs. In addition, while perusing it, the student may glean much incidental vocabulary, grammar, and sound examples of usage.

'Undoubtedly the clearest, most comprehensive explanation of Gaelic verbs and their convolutions! Highly recommended for serious learners.' — David Wright, Web developer and software engineer, Isle of Skye

'Gaelic Verbs, by Colin B.D. Mark, provides both the newcomer to Gaelic and the seasoned learner an immensely varied and immediately useful set of maps into the heart of the all-important Gaelic verb.

'Gaelic Verbs unravels, simply and accessibly, the mystery of how Gaelic verbs work and how they may be applied in everyday conversation. Mark's book would be an invaluable reference work in the library of any Gaelic learner.' — Toirstean MacRobainn, Director, Scottish Gaelic Learners Association of the Bay Area

'I find Gaelic Verbs a very good resource for the learner, and also for the native speaker who wants to know how the language works. To those with experience only of English, Gaelic verbs may seem somewhat difficult and complicated. Colin Mark's simplified and systemised approach serves to maximise the student's understanding of how they work. But the idiomatic use of verbal forms, which may not always follow cold logic, is not ignored, and Mr Mark's work gives appropriate expression to the beauty and uniqueness of Gaelic phraseology and idiom.' — Ruairidh MacIlleathain, Gaelic broadcaster (BBC Alba), journalist, and writer
