This is the best summary I could come up with:
Gaelic-language campaigners and MSPs have protested furiously about plans to axe a network of Gaelic community workers, raising fresh fears about the survival of the language.
The job losses have alarmed activists, who said these development workers were essential to their efforts to promote and reinvigorate the language and Gaelic communities, after decades of decline.
One senior source said many felt “betrayed”, partly because the cuts had been imposed by Scottish National party ministers, who many assumed would be particularly attuned to the cultural and political case for protecting Gaelic.
Yet Bòrd na Gàidhlig and MG Alba, a government-funded agency for Gaelic-language television, film and radio, have warned that they have shouldered consistent cuts in real-terms funding, putting their services under severe strain.
The University of Aberdeen faced strike action by lecturers on Tuesday after heavily cutting Gaelic and modern languages teaching following a slump in student numbers.
“The reduction in funding for Bòrd na Gàidhlig exacerbates an already dire situation for the Gaelic language, whose preservation is vital not only to our cultural heritage but also to the vibrancy and future of our community,” they said.
