Do you think the pronounciations and grammar on Ling are acurate as an Irish speaker?
I don't think they are inaccurate.
So, given your comment below regarding Duolingo, in your opinion would you say that Ling is a better app for learning? I am going through the Duo Irish course for the second time. It has been updated and is much better than it was - but it still severely lacking in helping you gain real time conversational skills. That is what you and my tutor are for ;)
I wish I had this lad teaching me back in secondary school
You're very kind, I think a lot of secondary Irish teachers think of it as a job and therefore lack the passion, knowledge and creativity to truly promote Irish as something precious and rare.
Thank you for clarifying something that's been confusing me for months! btw, in the American South, we have a slang English equivalent for the plural "you"--we say "y'all" when we're speaking to a group or member of that group, as in "And you and the family, how are y'all doing these days?" but I do like the inventiveness of "yee". It served the purpose quite well!
Glad you liked the video Julia, yes I was actually thinking Y'all as I was making it 😊
The pronoun 'you' in English used to be a plural form ('thou' was singular) and there used to be a subject form (ye) and object form (you). In Modern English the form 'you' became used in both cases. However, Ireland still retains this older and more conservative form. "you" and "y'all" and "youse" (like I use myself) are all the novelty forms, some more novel than others. It's a great thought, but Irish English here is being extremely conservative and not innovative. I wish it would be taken up by more people :)
Yes I would often say youse as well, like are youse going out tonight? Interesting concepts.
@@Murphyalex I live in Butte, MT and we say “youse” here, it’s a very Irish mining city.
Very good 😁
Clear and the right amount of information for an effective lesson
Let's call it this the Goldilocks effect
GRMA - this is exactly what I was looking for but didn't realise! Started learning Irish on Duo about 6 months ago - useful but the context and examples here are so much more useful. You have just gained a new subscriber! Slainte! Mark.
So Happy to find this Program. Thank you.
I just started learning Irish, and while I'm still very beginner level, these bits of grammar lessons are very helpful. Thanks for all the work you're doing!
Níl sé cosúil le hobair! It's not like work. Glad you like the content, best wishes 😊
It's wonderful to hear that. Keep it up. Maith thú.

Thank you so much! Duolingo doesn’t teach any of these rules at all and other sources can be quite confusing at times.
I like to keep things simple, knowledge is power.
Duolingo DO have notes and tips for Irish, but in the webversion. Go check it out! Though I do find these videos much better when it comes to make it simple and easy or at least easier to understand…
Best wishes
Thanks for the great lesson!
Dia dhuit!
I’ve been learning Irish again at Cultúrlann Uí Chanáin and these will definitely come in handy.
Go raibh maith agat 😊
Glad you liked the content and good luck with your learning, tír gan teanga tír gan anam.
Another great video great explanation and examples very helpful.
Thanks very much knowledge is power.
Another great video! Love the channel
Good to hear that best wishes.
The moving graphics help guide the eye. Very useful. GRMA!
I think the more interactive the better, glad you found it helpful, best wishes.
Yezzzzzzzz! Go raibh maith agat! I have been *trying* to learn Irish Gaelic on Duolingo for a year. Spending 12 minutes with your video taught me more than 12 months on Duo.
Duolingo is fine for a bit of fun and dipping your toe in the water but that's about it. It is a good app but very limited. Glad to hear that you found the videos useful and informative and best wishes 🙏
One of your best videos yet.
Thanks so much 👍
fantastic thank you so much
Best wishes
A Dhane, a chara, is maith liom do fhísean. Tá me i gcónaí ag foghlaim beagán níos mó Gaeilge. Go raibh míle maith agat.☘
Mar a deirtear, de réir a chéile a thógtar na caisleáin, beannachtaí.
This was so helpful and explanatory! Thank you so much! I think prepositions can be one of the harder parts of the language because some of them are used differently than in English and have so many different “prepositional pronouns” that come with them. I appreciate the preposition videos you’ve done so far. If you decide to do even more preposition explanations in the future, such as for De or Ó, that would be amazing☺️
Glad to hear that you found the video useful and informative and thanks for the suggestions, I'll bear that in mind. Best wishes.
This is such a helpful and clarifying lesson. Do, dó, de don, have been so confusing for me
One step at a time, best wishes
I'm a beginner in the language, but this really gives some useful clarity. As a first-language English speaker, there are differences between how Irish is built up compared with English, but these examples make a lot of sense. If I want to speak Irish, I need to have a sense of how Irish works, and this sort of thing helps in that way.
That's good to hear, best wishes.
Dia dhuit Dane. Your lesson is so excellent. Even though I am still tuning to sounds of Irish but I enjoy the learning process very much. Go raibh maith agat.
Slanté.
👍🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🥇🥇🥇🥇🥇👍
Very nice to hear that, best wishes and good luck.
Tá drochsceala agam = est dysangelium mihi
Latin allows "mihi est" instead of "habeo" - is this simply the sole standard in Irish?

Hi Dane, just on 3:40 of this video... is it correct to think at as well as singular and plural for 'don' and 'do na' - is duine changed to daoine when talking about more than one person also?
I'm not really sure I understand what you are asking, did you not see Duine changed to Daoine in the video as it was referring to more than 1 person.
does do get a seimhiú?
What context?
Go hiontach!

Tá tú an-chúnamh dom ag foghliam Gaeigle, ordógí suas.

Tá an ceacht seo go hiontach. Tá fadhbanna agam le forainmneacha ach míniú soléir a bhí ann.

The apostrophe thing is just a convention it isn't a rule. Conamara people in particular tend not to subscribe to this convention. We'd say do Áine rather than d'Áine
Indeed, thank you for sharing 👍
