Is there any evidence that he spoke Gaelic? PatGallacher 19:08, 15 March 2006 (UTC)

Yes. He and his father had a Gaelic chaplain, they were both raised in the Gaelic speaking area, and in this case, he even has a Gaelic name (Muiredach), of which Murdoch is one of several possible anglicizations. Even the title Duke of Albany is a 14th century borrowing from Gaelic. - Calgacus (ΚΑΛΓΑΚΟΣ) 19:11, 15 March 2006 (UTC)
