"Tha mi ann an ospadal a-rithist."

Translation: I am in a hospital again.

[Kathy24percent]

I have the hardest time understanding this gal!

[Gizmos69]

I struggled with hearing a-rithist as it sounded like a v sound at the start not the r soundit should have. I worked it out using my notes and thinking the most likely statement.

[FiferWD]

She sounds so happy and cheerful. It can't be the food!

How do you tell the difference between "in A hospital" and "in THE hospital"? Aren't both "ann an ospadal"?

[PatriciaJH]

No, "anns an" is "in the". So "tha mi anns an ospidal a-rithist" would be "I am in the hospital again."

[JaneyCKidd]

Most people would say "I'm in hospital again" in English without specifying "a" or "the" (sub-text "I was ill again")
Can you convey this in Gaelic?
