Dunno if anyone cares but if you guys are stoned like me during the covid times then you can stream pretty much all the latest movies and series on InstaFlixxer. Been watching with my gf recently xD
You're totally right, Mr. Giolla! Irish is by no means a dead language. I am so deeply interested in it in this 2019 ! I am sorry some people are careless when they express their opinions, as the woman who complained on the radio about translations of signposts. There is a course online that I am following. Regards from far Mexico City!
I’m an American trying to learn Irish. I was able to use the very little I know with a couple of people while in Ireland recently, but still working on learning more
I am delighted to find this channel. I am Canadian. My grandparents were from Ireland. I am learning with the free language app Duolingo. It is awesome! There are all kinds of people from around the world learning as well. The grammar is quite challenging but I love this beautiful language. ❤
I love the sound of this language. I have toyed with learning it from time to time. I am a polyglot so, languages come relatively easily to me. It is sad to me when I read comments from the Irish in lots of these videos stating that they have no motivation to learn it because they would rather learn Mandarin or Arabic or something like that. They want some financial incentive to learn the language. Many of them do not seem to understand that the reason to learn it is because it is yours and no one else’s. Your country is doing very well these days. If your language was more prevalent throughout your island, it would be foreigners who would be learning it instead of English if they wanted to do business with you. Think of that for a moment. I know that if I ever visit the place, I will endeavor to learn some phrases in Irish. I will deliberately seek places out that speak it. It seems the polite thing to do when you visit a country to learn its language. From what I can gather, Galway seems to be the likeliest place barring somewhere in the countryside. Is this accurate? Is it an Irish speaking city?

@@klunny998 Aye but the dynamics causing the language loss work more or less the same way. It's just more tragic that such a process is in play in Ireland itself. Pakistan is still speaking their language, even if emigrants lose it after a few generations.
My family left Ireland generations ago, and one part of my family has almost entirely thrown away Irish traditions, food and culture. The language was definitely not passed down. But I'm involved with the Irish cultural society local to me and if I ever am blessed enough to return, I'd love to learn Irish and support and fortify Irish culture.
Beautiful language, you Irish need to start bringing it back and treat it like the Welsh do with their language. I watched a program a while ago which visited Cornwall and their language Cornish/Kernewek but it’s very rare for modern day folk to know it.
That’s because the Cornish let their language die. It had to be revived. There are several forms of it too. They can’t agree on which one is more authentic. Most of them sound very Anglicized when they speak it too. They have the curse of the English R. For some reason, English speakers have a terribly difficult time getting away from that retroflex R regardless of what language they speak. Unless they’re native dialect trills it, they just can’t bring themselves to use the tip of the tongue to make it except with great difficulty and lots of practice.
Irish is a very nice language! Though i could hardly find video in youtube where i can listen to this beautiful language😔 Does every Irish understand english?
Me too. People forget. So, seemingly good with languages, I was teaching myself Gaelic. Mum was Limerick side so she referred me to Dad 'Silent o'Miles' was my nickname for him. Man of few words. All he replied was 'you've a Cork accent'. WHAT! So, I've taken my sons all over Eire and me also Scotland. NOW UNDERSTAND ...

Where to start. I moved to a French speaking city at 30 and now at 47 speak French fluently. I’ll move back to the land of my grandfather when I retire and learn Irish.
What Éamon said sir was that basically, is mise Meiriceánach is like saying that your name is American, but is Meiriceánach mé would be 'I am American'. Go n-éirí!
I have two questions. Do the protestant people in Donegal speak Irish as well. Also I hear a twinge of a Donegal accent that I hear in English in your voice. Are there regional Irish accents that correspond to the accents in English, ie Cork accent, Donegal accent?

I wish to help revive this language, im trying to learn it. I hate when languages die and people dont care about it. Gaeilge is just as important as culture is in Ireland. Without the language what culture is there?
@@Louisef22 It's slowly dying out, there are 1.2 million speakers, but 170,000 speak it as their first language, so native speakers of it are going to lower a lot more until its just foreigners who learn the language, it's sad and it could have been avoided completely if it weren't for the english
They speak English in most of Ireland. Most people aren't comfortable speaking Irish or can't speak it. So you don't need to learn it, but you can if you want.
@@valeuudiste4664 In the next year I will trip to Dublin from Brazil to visit Dublin and Kildare. I'm devoted Saint Brighid. And I want too much visit Her Church or Her Sacred Well. I'd love to learn a few irish phrases. I admire deepest irish culture. Many greetings for your answered me.

I lived for a year in Northern Ireland and taught French. But I also learnt a bit of Irish via the Open University and got a beginner's degree. It's important to keep your roots. We, the French, couldn't see the importance of our local patois and dialects. It is still frowned to speak a local word in France. I know the Irish and the Welsh are truly resilient and must do whatever they can to ensure they do not lose parts of their histories. Adh mor oraibh (if I remember well). Love from France, always keeping a place for Ireland in my heart. As for languages, I did learn many languages, Irish is to me one of the hardest (pronunciation and grammar).
The fact that most French people still say «local patois and dialects »😅😅😅 to refer to fully fledged regional languages, like Breton, Catalan, Basque, Occitan, etc... shows the low esteem those languages are regarded with.
@@isamukim1693 Not at all. I was referencing to my local patois. A dialect is a language variant spoken regionally, like Lorraine French. A patois is one form of this dialect that could differ from one village to the other. Breton, Basque and Alsatian are regional languages with local dialects. In my vision of French languages.

@Cormac Mac donnacha Speaking Irish is considered an affront to refugees, as is Irish music, Irish dancing, and Irish sports. Ridiculous? Yes. True? Yes.
@Cormac Mac donnacha You are flat out incorrect. Even as the Irish Language is experiencing a resurgence by way of texting and social media, it is considered an affront to refugees. Even years ago it was considered an affront to non-Irish speakers in Ireland. My cousin and a friend were asked to leave a shop in Cork for speaking Irish in 1993. A refugee complaining about being offended by native Irish speakers speaking Irish far outweighs your right to speak it. The "racist" word has much more power than the "rights" word.
@Cormac Mac donnacha I'm glad to hear that. I'm going on what I've been told by friends, cousins, and news/opinion articles. I am an Irish Citizen and my father and three grandparents were from New Lodge, Belfast. I have spent a lot of time in Ireland, especially in Belfast and Corca Dhuibhne where I have Fitzgerald relations. I am related to the late Tomas O'Cinneide, who was considered the best speaker of the Munster dialect of his time. I was first there in 1972.
@Cormac Mac donnacha i think this view is not coming from refugees (who have other priorities...) but it is part of the so-called “language stigma” expressed by native speakers (or former). It is a sort of justification for abandoning their old language for a newer one.
I am trying to learn Irish, and I keep returning to this video, understanding a little bit more by ear each time.

I already shared here, about something else) but wanted to say, this is very extra fun, for me as, I am finding scottish gaelic (proper term?) is becoming familiar to me, as I learn ulster ❤... I may benefit later with another language added on, now to my irish 😊... thank you for sharing... ps. our grandfathers were, Gallagher, from Donegal, and dad's dna, had irish and scottish (wow, and even some welsh from the other parent😮)... I love learning ulster, go raibh mile maith agat, for all your sharing!
So that’s where the American accent came from interesting
Is cinnte gur fíor é, 's fíortheanga í. Tá ag déanamh iarracht de dhíth orainn, tusa agus mise, a hÉireannaigh.
p.s. is aoibhinn liom an canúint Gaoth Dobhair, iontach ar fad :D ach táim ag foghlaim canúint Oileáin Árann
Did my youtube, post go through, clear? There are lines in the words? 😮...repeat: le do thoil, an féidir le Dónal Mac Giolla Choill, as Labhair Gaeilge, a léamh leabhar, ar líne... can he please contact librivox?? To read?, 😢😢😢 níl aon leabhair ann, as Gaeilge... "duan na nollag" would be a good one to read, as, it has, past, present, and, future, sutuations, and, we can follow, in english, until we LEARN it all... go raibh maith agat... *his readings of seanfhocail are iontach 🤗... i am learning ulster area...

@@TheDonall123 one trouble, though, they say the book must be in public domain, which the story, itself IS...ach... what about its aistriúchhán go gaeilge? Could it be, still, public domain? Le do thoil, you will have to ask if that is allowed, a mhalairt, you may have to read the english version? TRANSLATING into irish as you go along?, instead if reading it outloud in the english, which would be allowed, but, sadly take much more of your time... ach, there is no hurry.. tá sé chun leabhar fuaime gaelige a thabhairt don domhan mór... mar bhronntanas in aisce... I wish I could do I... I am striving very much to read irish, ulster way, into proper quality, but, I am barely: Brian amháin, ach, go dtí seo ag déanamh go maith 😊, but, I could never read "English switching it instantly into irish 😢" ... SEO AINM AN LEABHAIR: DUAN NA NOLLAG, charles dickens, isn't 978-1-911363-38-5 LEABHAR BREAC, indreabhán, Co. na Gaillimhe, www.leabharbreac.com , arís, a dhuin uasail, go raibh MILE MILE maith agat... ó chroì, neebee...

Half Irish and half filipino here , I chose to study Gaelic instead of Tagalog because it’s a dying language , slan!
This language sounds like Arabic or a bit like Chinese
Hope you would save your native language
It not that Irish or Even Gaelic in general is dead, just that its not dead enough..... Fer some.
Who is this boy?
Me! A little bit older and haven't considered myself a boy for years 😂
You are very young
This was made before all things Irish were considered racist.
@Cormac Mac donnacha Speaking Irish is considered an affront to refugees, as is Irish music, Irish dancing, and Irish sports. Ridiculous? Yes. True? Yes.
@Cormac Mac donnacha You are flat out incorrect. Even as the Irish Language is experiencing a resurgence by way of texting and social media, it is considered an affront to refugees. Even years ago it was considered an affront to non-Irish speakers in Ireland. My cousin and a friend were asked to leave a shop in Cork for speaking Irish in 1993. A refugee complaining about being offended by native Irish speakers speaking Irish far outweighs your right to speak it. The "racist" word has much more power than the "rights" word.
@Cormac Mac donnacha I'm glad to hear that. I'm going on what I've been told by friends, cousins, and news/opinion articles. I am an Irish Citizen and my father and three grandparents were from New Lodge, Belfast. I have spent a lot of time in Ireland, especially in Belfast and Corca Dhuibhne where I have Fitzgerald relations. I am related to the late Tomas O'Cinneide, who was considered the best speaker of the Munster dialect of his time. I was first there in 1972.
Also there? Really? Just the same in Italy in respect to regional languages and cultures, mostly in the north.
@Cormac Mac donnacha i think this view is not coming from refugees (who have other priorities...) but it is part of the so-called “language stigma” expressed by native speakers (or former). It is a sort of justification for abandoning their old language for a newer one.
Please, learn your motherlanguage
He should be prosecuted for having that fucking name.I tried to pronounce it and threw up.
