Alexander Stewart, published in 1801, and one of the first grammars written on the language. Contents include: Pronunciation and Orthography Parts of Speech Derivation and Composition Syntax Current estimates for the number of Scots Gaelic speakers today suggest that it is spoken by between 50,000 to 60,000 individuals primarily in the north of Scotland and in the Western Isles (e.g. Skye, Lewis, Harris). Once the third most spoken language in Canada, after English and French, Scots Gaelic is also still spoken in Atlantic Canada on Cape Breton Island by around 500-1,000 people. Today it is seriously endangered and there are few fluent speakers.
