Irish for Parents 1 - A School Morning
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 2 окт 2024
- Basic Irish phrases for parents. Suitable for parents of Gaelscoil children, and naíscoil children, but also beneficial for all parents who wish to use more Irish in the home with their children. Broadly speaking I have learned Ulster Irish, but also look at words and phrases and pronunciations from other dialects. It is important to actively listen to native speakers of the language as much as possible.

I very much appreciate the overemphasis with regard to pronunciation and the way you point out how certain phrases don't work in Irish/have no exact equivalent in English but are perfectly good Irish nonetheless; it's helping me get a lot of the "Englishness" out of my speech that I knew wasn't right but wasn't sure how to correct. I have got access to a handful of native speakers but I don't get to see/speak to them nearly often enough, so when trying to speak on my own, I'd slip back into bad habits between those opportunities and wind up having to nearly start over. Feels like I'm finally making some forward progress thanks to your patience. For those who don't have young children, try saying some of these to your pets - I've got a pair of kittens I speak to in Irish ("Tá an mhaidin ann! An bhfuil ocras oraibh? Malarkey, cá bhfuil do bhabhla?" etc). It gives me good practice with those kinds of basic phrases, and it's meant they're quite well trained for cats - since I'm the only one in the house who's learning Irish, if they hear Irish, they tend to assume I'm talking to them and pay more attention than if I were to tell them something in English.
Seanchai fan excellent and highly amusing teacher
There is so much really useful content here for beginners, not just in terms of vocab but also pronunciation and bits of grammar. Plus there's no talking down to us; instead here we have an expert teacher standing alongside us and encouraging us along with real generosity of spirit.
Thank you dearly for this.
This is such important work you are doing. I wish there were more you tubers like you, sir.
Clearly you know well that in order to keep the language alive, the children need to be spoken to in Irish at home.
I love that you are teaching us how to teach them by starting from the very moment they pry open their wee eyes in the morning! Irish all day, every day, that's the way!
I thank you from the bottom of my heart. Please keep up the good work!
Thanks so much for the videos please make more. You make it so easy to understand and easy to grasp.
Great advice or suggestion. Really think about what you say around kids. Its really around 500 words?, lol. for me part of learning another language is learning a new technique, so we translate words like book or train straightt. but i dont want curse or slangs equivolents. also, why learn baby talk? you want children to learn real words that could still be used as grown ups.
I have just come across Sean’s lessons and find them wonderful. They are down to earth and contain all the usual phrases you would use in a day , I am looking forward to continuing with them and trying to improve my Gaeilge .
Tá me ag foghlaim na Gaeilge and your videos are helping me and my wife a lot as are childern are at a Gaelsciol.
Go raibh míle maith agat.
Thank you so much for doing this video. I'm trying to learn Irish and then teach it to my kids (ages 3 and 4) as well as my small homeschooling co-op (6 kids ages range from 2 - 6). This is very helpful. I'd love to be able to see more of these if you'd be willing to share more. Things like, the days of the week, talking about what day or season it is, telling them to clean up for lunch, or snack times, telling them it's time to go outside or come inside. Again, thank you for doing this video.
thankyou very much and I intend to do loads of these. This is just the start, hopefully. I will also take your wee suggestions on board! also, please search for Fonn Foghlama page on facebook where I will be putting out user-friendly revision notes in pdf format for all the tutorials.
I'm American and have been trying to learn Irish for a couple years now, with Duolingo mostly, and Irish Language Learners on Facebook, and that's how I came across this video and I've been taking notes! I have two teenagers and one easily distracted 5 year old so these phrases will come in handy as I try to teach myself and them some Irish. Múscail is usefull for my older two boys, and cá bhfuil... will be useful for my youngest who needs to be reminded what he needs to do next!
I really appreciate these lessons, and the good humour with them.
thank you for this. i hope you keep uploading Irish lessons
plural you(s) is helpful in this case sir, better thatn you all or y'all.
yous may not be a word but Y'all is
I really enjoy listening to your lessons. They are great. Maith thú!
Love this video! I am currently learning Irish as my 2 children 3&5 go to an Irish school. I love saying phrases to them and hearing the extensive replies that come back and of course being told I'm pronouncing it wrong!! This is a great help to me for getting more Irish spoken around the home GRMA
thankyou Ali! as I have said, this is only the start. In addition to this Irish for Parents Series I am doing a more general course. So far I have 3 tutorials up on that and it would really help you too. I dont know if youve seen those but search youtube for Greamanna Gramadaí and it should show up. I will try and get this stuff all better organised as I go along. really appreciate your feedback as it lets me know my tutorials are being used positively!!
Hi this is great as my daughter has just started naíscoil. Looking forward to watching more. Go raibh maith agat!
Wakey wakey wakey is kind of a diminutive, would 'mùscailìn, mùscailìn, mùscailìn!' work?
It wouldn't. Diminutives work with nouns. Verbal orders are absolute, depending on the person(s) being ordered.
Thar cionn uilig... Bhí mé ag smaoineamh rudaí mar seo a chur suas... ach ní gá anois.
Great stuff... I was thinking of putting something like these up... but it is already done so well.
Maith thú féin a sheáin, bhain mé sult mór as an cheacht seo.. coinnigh ort !!
Dia Duit aSean, I'm in the US and so have no experience with Gaeilge to speak of (pun intended lol) other than a few phrases used by my grandparents. They all came from the West of Ireland. So I'm working on the Connacht dialect (I know you said you are using the Ulster dialect but I don't think they are mutually exclusive). I really, really appreciate the way you structure your videos for raw beginners. Go raibh maith agat!
Dia Duit aSean, I'm in the US and so have no experience with Gaeilge to speak of (pun intended lol) other than a few phrases used by my grandparents. They've all passed on now. They all came from the West of Ireland. So I'm working on the Connacht dialect (I know you said you are using the Ulster dialect but I don't think they are mutually exclusive). I really, really appreciate the way you structure your videos for raw beginners. Especially when you give the literal translation of the Gaeilge words and then give the general term as well. That is really helpful to me. Go raibh maith agat!
cad e mar ata tu Sean could you put up a video on how to say to someone mind your own business or it none of your business or keep your nose Ta riont gaeilge agam but it how to pronounced some the words that I find hard to say but if you could that would be great le do thoil go raibh mile a maith agat pol
When my kids were younger and I had to wake them up I would sing "First of tha Month" by Bone Thugs n Harmony 😜
This was a very helpful video. I've been try to learn for a long time, but struggle with some pronunciation, so hearing it is very helpful. Especially in a parent setting! I'm from the U.S. and will be homeschooling my 3 kids, and I want to teach them Irish. I'm also trying to train my dogs in Irish, so if you ever do a little video on dog commands in Irish, I'd love that. Go raimh maith agat!
Dia duit a Shean! Nil aon fada ar mo riomhaire. Btw Go raibh maith agat. Ta a fhisean anois go hiontach!
These videos are a breath of fresh air. I wish you had done more. A natural is what you are, Sean.
Sean, your didatic is perfect! Congratulations for the lessons.👏👏🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪👍
Go raibh míle maith agat - THANK YOU so much for these videos; more would be very welcome! This is perfect.
Dia duit, a Sheáin.
Táim ag déanamh staidéir ar an nGaeilge agus is breá liom do cheachtanna.
Tá siad chomh suimiúil.
Go raibh míle maith agat ón tSeapáin.
