Well, I'm learning through an app so it doesn't teach non-formal Scottish Gaelic.

Which app? I love looking into them! Duolingo is pretty good, I just think it's scattered. But it's solid.

DuoLingo as a matter of fact.

At least I think I'm American.

It's been about 3 months since I've actually checked where I am. I could be in Columbia. I could be in Bangladesh. I could be in your basement.

@Axel

I don't… I don't have a basement. Wait, are you in my closet? Is that why every day, before I go to school, my closet door is open?!

How does formality work in Scottish Gaelic?
In Italian, you use the informal only with family, friends, and people younger than you (or anywhere online). Everywhere else, you use the formal.

@Mercury Beta Tester

And the Italian course on Duolingo teaches the informal at first and then only brings in the formal much later on (but I haven't used Duolingo in years since they made that terrible UI change and then, much later, fired the volunteers and replaced them with AI).
