What’s driving the overall increase in Gaelic being spoken in Scotland? Are there online Influeners making it something fun and cool to do? Are there TV programs including this language? Maybe it’s the Gen X’ers; 40 something Scots who now value their culture, as the land fills up with “undocumented” Africans, Arabs and agitators.

Learning a second language is highly useful for intellectual development. It develops a sense of objectivity that may be missing in children raised only on “feelings,” especially if you practice speaking in the second language to others who cannot speak your first language. You are forced to communicate, and develop “work around” phrases for words you don’t know.
Not only does learning a second language make the grammar of your original language more understandable to you; but also, once you learn a second language, learning a third or more becomes remarkably easier.
In my bried retirement job in a multicultural suburb, I was able to make sales in the three foreign languages I had formally studied years before in high school and college, plus offer a few helpful comments to customers in two other languages with which I’d become familiar through travel.
There is resentment in Scotland because most of the country (The Lowlands) has little connection to Scots Gaelic. Their language was Lallans, a non-Celtic language related to English. BBC Scotland broadcasts in Scots Gaelic, but I don’t think they broadcast in Lallan Scots, so those who speak Gaelic have an advantage in public broadcasting jobs.
