Updated 8/6/2014 Outlander Episode 101: Sassenach – The Gàidhlig Bits I Could Decipher
So in spite of being at the San Diego premiere and also attending an advanced screening of Outlander Episode 101 last Wednesday, I was also one of the many Outlanders who tuned into Starz at 12:01 August 2 to watch the first Outlander episode yet again. On my initial viewing of the episode titled “Sassenach”, I was only able to pick out a couple of words of the Gàidhlig dialogue. However, after several more viewings (more than 5 but less than 10, but who’s counting?), I have come up with the following list of Gàidhlig I believe I have been able to understand. There is absolutely no guarantee that it is correct and I am quite sure some of the grammar is likely incorrect. 🙂 For words that I could find audio pronunciation files, I have linked them.
Scottish Ghost
While returning from visiting Rev. Wakefield, Frank comes upon a Scottish man looking up at Claire’s window watching her. When Frank approaches the man turns and walks away and then disappears. Frank could see the movement of the man’s kilt but felt nothing when he approached. He is almost sure he saw a ghost.
Who is the ghost and why is he there?

Claire Travels
Claire’s jeweled watch is damaged. She travels from 1946 to 1743 approximately 202-203 years depending on the time of year.
How was she able to travel?

Dancers at the Standing Stones
Claire and Frank witness women in bed sheets dancing around the standing stones at Craigh na Dun. They don’t know why they are doing it but watch in fascination.
Why do they dance?

Outlandish Observations: ABC’s of the OUTLANDER TV Series.
Some of you may recall my ABC’s of Jamie Fraser and ABC’s of Claire Fraser posts from several years ago. I thought it would be fun to do a similar post for the OUTLANDER TV series. Hope you enjoy it!

10 Reasons You Should Watch Outlander
The other day, a Variety reporter wrote an article about 12 cable shows that are coming out this year. (I wouldn’t click on the link only because it’ll increase her page views and that’s not the idea I want to give. Just keep reading.)
One of the shows on her list was “Outlander”, a highly anticipated show that will hopefully turn into multiple seasons. Instead of trying to sell her readers into tuning in, she managed to insult them. According to Saval, the author of the article, she describes it: “This new series is based on the internationally bestselling novels by Diana Gabaldon that bored middle-age housewives have been going absolutely bananas over.”
Sam Heughan to protray Jamie
Has Starz’s “Outlander” series found its Jamie Fraser in Scotsman Sam Heughan?
The official Starz Twitter account confirmed as much on Friday with the tweet: “It’s #FollowFriday here at #STARZ. Follow Sam Heughan (@Heughan) who will play the role of Jamie Fraser in #OutlanderSTARZ.”
