- In this talk, Dr. Teresa Lynn discusses the use of the Irish language on Twitter and the importance of social media for minority languages.
Dr. Teresa Lynn is a Postdoctoral Researcher at the ADAPT Centre, Dublin City University. She completed her PhD through a cotutelle agreement between Dublin City University (Ireland) and Macquarie University Sydney (Australia), investigating parsing of the Irish language. She built the first syntactically-annotated corpus (treebank) for Irish and with that, trained the first statistical computational parsing models for Irish that can identify the syntax of Irish sentences. Teresa was a Fulbright-Enterprise Ireland Awardee in 2014-2015 and spent time in St Louis University, Missouri working with Professor Kevin Scannell on the automated analysis of Irish tweets.

I am Brazilian and i am learning talk Irish.. This language will never die
Mairfidh an chultúr na hÉireann go deo 🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪
dia daoibh. Is astrálach mé agus táim ag foghlaim Gaeilge ar duolingo. I never thought that I'd be able to learn Irish but I'm so glad that I can now.
I'm using duolingo as well.
Dia is mhuire duit!
Bail ó Dhia ort!
I also use Duolingo! Very helpful! 🇮🇪
I am learning on duolingo how to speak Irish. I'm at the beginning. I still get mixed up with different verbs because they are at the beginning of the sentence. I am looking for a native speaker that can help me translate and understand the connections and concepts of the language because it is very deep. I'm learning it to better understand my roots.
I was born in the US but i am of strong Irish heritage. I've dicided to learn Gaelige to get closer to my roots, which i am very interested in from a spiritual stance as I am a Pagan. I hope one day I can visit Ireland and hold conversation with many native speakers, to get a real feel for such a beautiful language. Im sure there are so many sayings that a student wouldn't learn in a classroom setting, that are half of the languages charm. After learning about its endangerment i have been even more inspired to learn this language. My family assimilated here but forgot who they are.
I hope you get to know the way God worked through the life of St. Patrick. The history of the Trinitarian God in Ireland is powerful. One would have to purposefully pretend it did nothing in Ireland not to find the Christian Triune God of St. Patrick, St. Brigid, St. Declan and St. Brendan of Ireland.
Maith thú, Is Éireannach tú agus tá gaeilge I do chroí.
@@Karl_with_a_K Go raibh maith agat! 💜
@@gofishglobal7919 The concept of triple-God(s) in Irish is actually incredibly old, dating far back into ancient Pagan times. Most gods were seen to have three forms, which was an important number to the Pagans of Ireland (who predate Jesus and Moses by millenia).
@@pickleslayer3381 Yes, that is exactly why I mentioned it. Even though, the Holy Trinity is not technically a triple-God because the three persons work in perfect unity.
That's my cousin on the telly!

Comhghairdeas léi. Ar fheabhas.

Go raibh maith agat!
as an adoptee who got over 90% Irish, i feel like i would like to reconnect to the Irish language. But somehow i feel like an imposter as i was raised in a completely BRITISH way and hearing my grandmother say that so and so had some Irish blood and what a shame that was. So even tho i didn't know my heritage, i learned from my British grandmother that somehow being Irish wasn't a good thing. I didn't grow up there or feel particulary Irish and yet i have so many irish qualities that must have been inherited. Thankfully my adoptive parent whose roots were from Yorkshire, absolutely LOVED the irish accent and in particular the music. He'd get very emotional. I just wish i had known then who i truly was.. My dad is now gone and i find myself wishing to learn my ancestors language.
There's nothing stopping you from learning Irish now
this was such a great talk!!!! i learned a lot from it. thank you dr. lynn, for sharing this lecture with us. :)
Love this, I’m living in the Bronx and wish I could speak GAELIC with others as I love it,being from Donegal in Ireland
Annie, there are groups in the Bronx dedicated to the learning and speaking of Irish.
Annie Davis Tá Seans Maith agat ar duolingo
There are many enthusiastic online groups, my daughter is living in Scotland and she is still taking Irish lessons from her teachers in Kerry...
@@michaelcarolan3117 ta me ag foghlaim
@@anniedavis4569 maith thú, fáilte abhaile.
Irish people should embrace their language because Gaelic shows their unique identity that is completely different from Britain.
Very interesting! I'm learning Irish now, can't wait to someday be fluent! ✌️♥️🌲
I totally want to re-learn gaeilige. Especially as I live in Rosgoill in west Belfast!
I have been wanting to learn for a long time do you know any were that you can?
@@willedwards2530 sorry Will. I haven’t looked into where local Irish classes would be! But I do know you can learn Irish at the Culturlann on the Falls road in Belfast. Not 100 per cent about now though, what with the pandemic like.
Maith thú Sean.
Tá mé Sualainnis. Is breá liom Gaeilge! I lived in Co Cork in the late 90s, we pretty much spoke English though.
Iontach! Bhí mé ag staidéar Sualainnis...teanga go hálainn!
@@ofaoilleachain 🇸🇪❤️🙂
Thank goodness, the pressure is off that spelling! I’ll give it another try. So social media has redeemed itself:)
Hey that's my cousin as well!
Is there a ¨blog of blogs¨ for Irish like tirnamblog and blogiadur?
Úsáidim mó Ghaeilge gach lá! Tosaigh nó dul isteach an pop-up gaeltacht i do réigiún, tá sé iontach don Gaeilge! - Athlone, Westmeath
Social Media helps to make it more a living than relic language.
Remember the TECHNOLOGICAL SHOCK of adapting the spelling system of Irish language to conform to the limits of the manual typewriter. I was trying to discuss song lyrics with an Innis Oirr-born farmer and he could not read the modern spelling of my lyrics. I wonder about the impact of this technology-driven institutional contortion of the Irish language. How deep is the division between native speakers and scholastic standardized speakers? What new divisions are evolving between the Irish of a cherished heritage and fast-paced and creative interpretations, even spellings, emerging from use of social media?
As an early learner, I feel in awe of colorful and poetic idioms as much as intimidated by my own lack of cultural context and sub-text. It is difficult enough to first translate Irish words to English words, then decipher the intended meaning. It is an entirely different and possibly impossible thing to think in English words and guess the appropriate imagery and idioms and then translate to Irish words with cultural and emotional fluency.
The same is true for Low German.
Platt deutsch is the name of right??? use moin instead of guten morgen?? literally all i know about that language
Is it possible to use the images of the maps d'úsáid na Gaeilge ar Twitter? An bhfuil cead iad a úsáid? (Múinteoir anseo)
go deimhin. Cur teachtaireacht chugam ar Twitter @cigilt
Go Maith!
Is Meiriceánach mé agus labhraím
Gaeilge le mo chait, Una ni Feral agus Donnachadh McTabbais!
Mise cuideachd, agus tha i a' tuigsinn gach uile facal ;-)
A few badly typed words on Twitter is really meaningless for assessing the health/vibrancy of a language.
However online is a great way to connect with other learners if the goal is to work on improving together and using the language.
Facebook is ok for it, as are learners forums. Discord is probably the best.
I am trying to find free texts/videos about irish gaelic; pronunciation and word by word translation. The bible would be a good example
that's a great idea did you find anything helpful?
The moral of the story is that language is being corrupted all around the world.
preasail As that hasn't been happening since we first started speaking.
Iontach 👍
Iontach ar fad, an-taitneamhach agus spreagúil.
