On the Set of Outlander: Can We Learn to Speak Gaelic Like Jamie?

We certainly try!

If we were ever stranded in Scotland circa the 1700s, let's just say we'd probably be screwed.

On the Set of Outlander: How to wear a kilt like a Highlander

During our recent trip to the set of Starz's hit series Outlander, we got an introductory Gaelic lesson from the show's expert and tutor Àdhamh Ó Broin. While Irish-born star Caitriona Balfe actually grew up speaking the language, co-star Sam Heughan had to train in the Highlander's native tongue.

After trying a few of the most common sounds and phrases, we'd be lying if we said we weren't insanely impressed with Heughan's skills. Check out the video above for our hilarious attempt to speak Gaelic.

Outlander airs on Saturdays at 9/8c on Starz.
