    Great video I often find it hard to differentiate between the past and conditional tense when ba or b' are used

      It can be tricky but luckily Irish has lots of flexibility.

    Irish has one advantage that the other Celtic languages do not and that's Irelands giant diaspora I think that if we are serious about reviving the Irish language we cant not ignore Irish's potential as an international language I'm proud to say that my local Portland community collage here in Oregon is now teaching Gaeilge as a elective. and there are pockets of Irish communities around the globe that would be very passionate about learning the Irish language. The same can not be said for Cornish or Breton.

      That is true and a very interesting point.

      New England has pop up Gaeltachts, so there's already Irish-Americans learning and speaking it in the greater Boston Area.

      @@LearnIrish I would love to learn. My grandma father was an Irish man. We call bottle gourd "poutigeal (buideal ) . However majority of Jamaicans don't know of it and has never eaten it. I also found a particular word that is only used by us and it's origin is Irish.

    Would you be able to do a video detailing how to use the Irish equivalents of ‘I should‘ and ‘I could’? It would be really useful.

    I'm an absolute beginner in Irish and I've been wondering something. Irish speakers in a lot of youtube videos and the voice clips in duolingo always palatalizes slender consonants, whereas you tend to pronounce them unpalatalized. Is this a dialectal difference, or is it that palatalized consonants are more common in formal speech? I hope my question is clear.
    You're absolutely amazing. Your interest in teaching this beautiful language is what keeps it alive.

      Thank you very much, glad to see that you have found the videos useful and informative, I just pronounce it as I see it, I wouldn't be a native speaker as such. But it's important not to get too excited about this type of thing, it's all the same language.

    Hi! In this video you use 'a glacadh' in a sentence where 'ba mhaith' is already the main verb. What does this make 'a glacadh' in the sentence? I've seen things like 'a thaispeáint' and such, and I've always wondered how to do that to all the other verbs, especially the irregulars. great video! just recently subscribed. Dá mbeifeá in ann cabhrú, bheinn buíoch.

    • @LearnIrish
      @LearnIrish  2 года назад +1

      Ba mhaith is not a verb, it means I would like or I want. A glacadh is in reference to the verb to accept

    The choice between Ba and B’ seems no more complicated than the choice in English between the indefinite articles An and A. Unless I’m misunderstanding something. (It’s happened.) What I’d be more curious in is an explanation of the differences between the Past and the Conditional constructions and usages in Irish. Thanks so much.
