@willbuckingham You could have really impressed her with your #Taiwanese vocabulary from the Maryknoll books. “Reverend”, “Reverend’s wife”, “Father” (priest), and religious “Sister” and “Brother” (nun/monk) are covered in the first few lessons in book 1.

@willbuckingham, I picked up my copy of _Tâigael_ today, and I also downloaded the #Taiwanese audio from the website. For Tâi-gí language learning, I plan to use these for listening input (once I get to the point where the material is more comprehensible for me) and for spoken output shadowing.
For anyone learning Taiwanese (Tâi-gí), Scottish Gaelic, Mandarin, or English who might want to use _Tâigael_ as a resource:
- The book contains 4 short stories, each translated into 4 languages. There are 5 written translations provided for each story: Taiwanese written in Pe̍h-ōe-jī (POJ) romanization, Taiwanese written in Chinese characters, Scottish Gaelic, Mandarin written in Traditional Chinese characters, and English.
- The website has free audio of each story in 4 languages: Taiwanese, Scottish Gaelic, Mandarin, and English. The audio files can be downloaded.
- ISBN: 978-1-9993764-2-0, https://taigael.com
It was so much fun doing this interview with #Taiwan Plus, along with Hannah Stevens, and the writer Naomi Sím (who is going to be featured in an upcoming report).

People (I) also ask:
❝When will you do #Taiwanese translation?❞
#Tâigí
#台語
#POJ

The stories from #Tâigael, our collection of tales in translation between #gaelic and #Taiwanese, are now available to listen for free online in Taiwanese, Gaelic, Mandarin & English. The book comes out next week! Tune in here!
The Taiwanese film 'A Journey In Spring' (春行) had its Australian premier at the Melbourne Taiwan Film Festival. The film's directors discuss LGBT stories and the importance of using the Taiwanese language

Divergent post:
I was thinking about 流浪
And I learnt that the proper translation is 'vagrant' and this is the first time I heard of the word, so I wonder how often first language English speaker ue this? We in #Taiwanese use 流浪 a lot, here is a famous folk song describing a young man wander to old Taipei area,Tamsui, and try to make a living

#TSMC Starts Building #US Chip Factory Within Hours Of Receiving Permit
#TSMC's ground breaking comes the same day the firm received construction permits for the third fabrication plant. The speed appears to have been timed with media reports from #Taiwan have claimed that TSMC is yet to submit details of its $100 billion additional investment to the US to the #Taiwanese government for approval.

A pet peeve is western tourists in #Japan who can't tell the difference between #Taiwanese and #Chinese and keep assuming everyone (sometimes #Koreans too!) are the latter.
The next episode in PBS NewsHour's series about Taiwan. This one is about Taiwanese identity, beef noodles and baseball

Governments identify dozens of #Android #apps bundled with #spyware
#BadBazaar and #Moonshine, which have been previously analyzed by cybersecurity firms and digital rights nonprofit #CitizenLab, were used to target #Uyghurs, #Tibetans, and #Taiwanese communities. These two spywares hid inside legitimate-looking apps, acting essentially as “trojan” #malware, with #surveillance capabilities such as access the phone’s cameras, microphone, chats, photos, and location data.

We're so excited to have all the stories and translations in from our Tâigael project, bringing together writers from #Scotland and #Taiwan, writing in #Gaelic and #Taiwanese
We're hard at work on the book, but there's a sneak preview on the project website.
Damn. The #Taiwanese writers knocked it out of the park again with #HelloGhost. That was... wow.
