I know all the amazing work that Morgan, Jon and yourself are doing is going to help so many people in the future with quality information about the entire Irish culture. Keep up the great work 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I'm loving your videos and am deeply interested in Ireland and the Irish language. I've noticed that you and most online instructors from Ireland don't say "Gaelic" but then there's one or two people who seem to be native from Ireland who post videos where they consistently do pronounce it "Gaelic" I'm curious if that's just a dialect thing or if there's some other explanation for it that I'm missing :)
I know this video is kinda old but Ive been recently finding the history and energy of the goddess Airmid very interesting and im thinking about praying to her as well, but I havent been able to find much about her, aside from the story of the healing herbs with miach which I find very intune with my spirit as I like to grow and even dry and burn my own herbs for protection and healing. I know as much as shes the goddess of healing/medicinal properties and herbs but not much from there, so I was wondering if maybe you know any special tips or have any insight on the worship of Airmid (I hope im spelling that right ive seen multiple different spellings so Im still stuck on pronunciation) sorry for the long comment but im very interested 😂
This is unrelated, and I'm only commenting this here because it's the most recent video. I am continuing to do my digging, but the resources I'm finding are definitely like wading through deep water. (Which is fine, I'm not complaining!) I am looking for a litany of sorts (in English also) for all the namings of An Morrigan. For example in the Táin Bó Regamna, An Morrigan is referred by "Faebor beg-beoil cuimdiuir folt scenb-gairit sceo uath." Which I was able to find a sort of explanation of before, but have lost my page and can't find it again. What I would love to find is a list of all the different ways in which An Morrigan has been referred to, or all the differing ways in which she is named. I'm finding a lot of Morgan Daimler's webpages are saying that they're no longer available. I'll continue to do my research, and use the resources and codicis that you've mentioned many times so far. But if anybody can help out I definitely will appreciate it!!
I really want to pronounce Airmed correctly. Did I hear that right it's more like (in English) "ar- vidge" ? Also do you know if it was the same in old Irish? Thank you!!!
old irish and medieval call irish gaidhlig or ghaidhlig. but few used older irish. they of course use the case system(often now called moods and modes because they don't follow the much better known latin case systm) , throughout fairly long passages, but i don't expect anyone to struggle with old grammar and pronoinciation, just that scottish gaidhlig preserves some of the old forms. iwould alos pronounxe the de with a dage in de dannaan as a je or hald andhalf j/d, as the e following isa slim vowel. however that might be a dialectal difference.
I love the sound of all those names. I'm wishing I had an Irish name rather them one of these biblical name we all got. I love St Patrick day because it's a celebration of the Irish but St. Patrick has and his Catholic church has been a curse to the Irish.
Would it be accurate to say the "tha" in Tuatha is then entirely silent? It sounded as though you pronounced it that way, but maybe my hearing is weak.
I can answer that, actually, provided you’re okay with a little roundabout explanation. The original Irish alphabet does not include the letter “h.” What we’re seeing as an “h” letter after some letters (such as “t” and “m”) is something called the séimhú (SHAY-voo). It changes the sounds of some consonants, and has a function in Irish grammar as well. In the original Irish alphabet, it was shown with a dot over the consonant. In the case of “Tuatha,” the “h” after the “t” signifies that the “t” should sound like an “h.” Therefore, it’s pronounced “too-ah-hah.”

Hi lora i hope your well . There is a new film out called "The banshees of inisherin" . It looks interesting .
I really want to pronounce Airmed correctly. Did I hear that right it's more like (in English) "ar- vidge" ? Also do you know if it was the same in old Irish? Thank you!!!
That is my name, and that’s how I pronounce it. Most people pronounce it AIR-med, though, as it’s spelled. So I just go by Airy, most of the time.

You can always change your name if it matters that much to you. I changed mine
