Error - Scots Gaelic in 12 weeks

Ambigous English prompts for Gaelic words:

  • In level 4, “well” is the English prompt for both “gu math” and “tha gu math”, with no other indication of which form is the correct answer.

  • In level 5, “Who are you? (familiar)” is the English prompt for both “Cò thu?” and “Cò thusa?” There is nothing in the prompt to indicate whether or not the emphatic (thusa) is required.

This is my second attempt to create this topic. Hopefully this time I will be able to see it in the list of topics, and possibly, if I am very lucky, the course creator will see it too. Memrise does not seem to have any way to contact course creators directly.

@CharlaAnn Any luck? I’m trying to contact author of a different course about typos and it seems well nigh impossible. Wish Memrise had an easy option to pm course creators directly!

No luck at all. I’m doing the Basic Scottish Gaelic course now and it
doesn’t seem to have any of that kind of problem. If Memrise won’t give us
a way to contact the course creators ourselves, they could at least provide
some way for us to complain to Memrise and have them contact the creator.
Sheesh! It shouldn’t be this difficult to get corrections made!

In my case the person had a linked FB account and I was able to message him there, so he could make me a co-creator of the course.

That’s nice! I didn’t think of looking for an fb account.

If you want to find the creator of a course you need to …

  1. give the name of author
  2. provide a link to that course
  3. tag a memrise staff (up-right corner click -3lines- and then “about” to see the list of moderators)

Thanks! It was created by
@gregnarmstrong
and here’s the link to the course:

@BeaTrisy, could you take a look at this thread please? The course creator has not responded.

If you look up users memrise staff have a shield behind their username. Tagging = putting @ in front of a username

Hi @Atikker,

A quicker alternative is to look under “About”. They are all listed there.

Well … that doesn’t really help, unfortunately. I have no clue where this magic link “About” is. It isn’t on this forum page anywhere. It isn’t on my home page. At the bottom of my home page, there is an “About Us” link (no memrise staff listed), “Team” (no memrise staff listed), and “Contact Us” (no memrise staff listed). Pretend I know nothing about web pages (not true). With that in mind, how do I find someone on the memrise staff to tag?

Fwiw, I did send an email to the address on the “Contact Us” page (months ago) asking how to contact an instructor, and the answer from the memrise staff was “post it in a forum.”

up right corner of this page

near your profile picture “yellow c” there is 3 lines, click on them and then between bug control and Keyboard shortcuts
