From what I can remember of the little Gaelic I had I "think" it has possibly a number of variations depending on which part of Scotland you come from.

One with a silent S being 'hoor ach ah'
or ' sure ach ah'

kh = the rough ch not ch as in "church", and the "dh" is a rougher version of that, but it is close enough to "gg"
