| Eilidh | Ta dà. | Ta da. |
| Màiri-Anna | Ò, Eilidh, a ghràidh. Dè tha thu a’ dol a dhèanamh leis? | Oh, Helen, dear. What are you going to do with it? |
| Eilidh | Tha mi a’ dol a chur a h-uile sgillinn dhan bhanca an-dràsta. Tha an sgoil a’ dol air saor-làithean dhan Spàinn as t-samhradh. Tha mi airson a dhol ann. Am faod mi dhol ann? | I’m going to put every penny in the bank just now. The school is going on holiday to Spain in the summer. I want to go. May I go there? |
| Màiri-Anna | A-null dhan Spàinn? Bidh e gu math daor. | Over to Spain? It will be very expensive. |
| Eilidh | Ach tha Natalie a’ dol ann. | But Natalie is going. |
| Màiri-Anna | Ò, uill! Ma tha Natalie a’ dol ann! | Oh well! If Natalie is going! |
| Eilidh | Carson a tha sibh a’ leughadh seo, a Mhamaidh? | Why are you reading this, Mum? |
| Màiri-Anna | Tha Mamaidh a’ dol sìos a Lunnainn. | Mum's going down to London. |
| Eilidh | Ò, Lunnainn. Cuin a tha sibh a’ dol ann? | Oh, London. When are you going? |
| Màiri-Anna | Diluain, a ghràidh. | On Monday, dear. |
| Eilidh | A bheil duine a’ dol ann còmhla ribh? Am faod mi fhìn a dhol ann còmhla ribh? | Is anyone going with you? Can I go there with you? |
| Màiri-Anna | Chan fhaod. Tha mi a’ dol a dh’obair. Cha bhi mi air saor-làithean. Bidh coinneamhan agam. | No. I’m going to work. I won’t be on holiday. I’ll have meetings. |
| Eilidh | Ach tha mi airson a dhol gu Harrods. | But I want to go to Harrods. |
| Màiri-Anna | Harrods! | Harrods! |
| Julie | Seall siud, Sharon! Majorca airson seachdain. Tha sin saor, nach eil? | Look at that, Sharon! Majorca for a week. That’s cheap, isn’t it? |
| Sharon | Cha bu toigh leam a dhol gu Majorca. Bu toigh leam a dhol dhan Spàinn. | I wouldn’t like to go to Majorca. I’d like to go to Spain. |
