  • The Seanachaí (Eamon Kelly) tells another tall tale. The Seanachaí was prominent in Ireland before the advent of T.V./Radio and rambled from house to house telling stories.

    Bill Grogan's goat! :) Loved the telling. Now this one, I'm having quite a time understanding some of the words. No worries - I'll keep listening to it and work out more of the words. The accent is (delightfully) pronounced to my foreign ears.

    This joke is noted in PAPA'S BILLYGOAT, when the goat eats and hiccups a red flannel shirt.

    This is definitely a County Kerry accent---i.e. "a dinger on the box" = good on the concertina.

    We think that is the reason why the Irish language is plummeting out of existence, agus is trua e sin, constantly correcting people who make a stab at it, won't make it arise from the ashes, it just fans the flames! The Dollies XXX

    ÉIRE, please, not 'EIRE". eire without the fada means "burden"!

    Would you like your country to be called a burden? I think not. Don't half-ass anything. In plenty of languages, a misspoken word can mean the difference between a compliment and an huge insult; ignorance cannot be used as a defense. Anyone with a year's worth of learning Irish know that many words' meanings change drastically with or without a fada, so stop the bullshit excuses and whining. Do your best, but accept corrections!
