Tha mi a' dol dhan stèisean-trèana.

Tha mi = I am

a' dol = going

dhan = to the (shortened form of do + an)

stèisean-trèana = train station

The phrase "ionad-carbaid" in Scottish Gaelic translates to "vehicle center" or "transport hub" depending on the context. It can refer to a car park, garage, or a location related to vehicles.

In Scottish Gaelic, "Paisley Gilmour Street" would be "Sràid Gilmore Phàislig".

Sràid = Street

Gilmore remains the same, as proper names are typically not translated.

Phàislig = Paisley (in the genitive case, as it's following another noun). I said Phàislig no Pàislig, being unsure if I should lenite the word and add the extra H.

"Tha mi airson a dhol gu Pàislig Naomh Seumas."

Tha mi airson = I want

a dhol = to go

gu = to

Pàislig = Paisley

Naomh Seumas = Saint James

Paisley St James is another local station
