To say that something is mine you say mo<\/span> or m\u2019<\/span>, followed by the thing that you are talking about: mo pheansail<\/span>.<\/h1>\n
\n

To say that something is yours, you say do<\/span> or d\u2019<\/span>, followed by the thing that you are talking about: do pheann<\/span>.<\/h1>\n
peann >>> a pen <\/strong><\/span>
\nmo pheann >>> my pen<\/span><\/strong><\/h5>\n
\u00e0ireamhair >>> a calculator <\/strong><\/span>
\nm\u2019 \u00e0ireamhair my calculator<\/span><\/strong><\/h5>\n
r\u00f9ilear >>> a ruler <\/strong><\/span>
\nmo r\u00f9ilear >>> my ruler<\/span><\/strong><\/h5>\n

You will see that mo<\/span><\/strong> is shortened to m\u2019<\/span><\/strong> before a vowel<\/strong> or vowel sound<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

If the noun following begins with an f<\/strong>, mo<\/span><\/strong> is shortened to m\u2019<\/span><\/strong> and an h<\/strong> is added to the noun<\/strong>:
\nm\u2019 fh\u00f2n-l\u00e0imhe.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Mo<\/span><\/strong> and do<\/span><\/strong> can change the word that comes after them. This is called lenition.<\/p>\n

Try these when you want to say in my, in your<\/em> etc:
\nna + mo = nam bhaga <\/strong>in my bag
\nna + mo = nam bheachd <\/strong>in my opinion
\nna + a = na bhaga <\/strong>in his bag
\nna + a = na baga <\/strong>in her bag<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
