To Colin's horror, he's unintentionally volunteered for a community care programme. He's up to his ears in Betty's underwear, sorting washing and helping her dress. How will he get his head round all these items!

 Blue or Grey? There are regional differences in the words used to describe the colours grey and blue in Gaelic. Blue is called gorm in some areas and liath in others. Grey likewise is called liath or glas by Gaelic speakers from different areas.
Masculine or feminine? You may have noticed that lenition occurs in the names of some of the colours following items of clothing in this game. To lenite, an h is inserted as the second letter after certain consonants: b, c, d, f, g, m, p, s and t. This happens if the item of clothing is a feminine noun. Therefore ³¦Ã²³Ù²¹ dubh but drathars dhubh. It is not dependent on whether the item of clothing is for a male or a female. Words which begin with vowels do not take lenition, hence ±ôè¾±²Ô±ð uaine. Most Gaelic dictionaries indicate whether nouns are masculine or feminine.
