Wow, I really hope we don’t lose the Irish language. It sounds so beautiful, I love it so much. Even when Irish people speak English, it is the most beautiful accent of all English accents 🥰
Hello! I'm from Russia and everytime I hear somone speaks Irish I understand that I want to learn it so bad! I know I can't use it in my daily life, but it's so beautiful, so It's in my list of 10 things I have to do, I want to do before I die.
Well, I have no sweetheart, but I sure love learning the pronunciation of the language and words of love of Ireland. I'm Irish on my mother's side, and she spoke differently.
Thank you so much for this delightful lesson. I am a Fijian from the Fiji isles in the South West Pacific currently learning Irish for the sake of the love of my life. Your presentation is invaluable and the pronunciation in brackets is the clincher. This kind of real-life situation relevance elevates learning from the casual to the discerning refinement. I owe you a deep great debt of gratitude. God bless you. Miles of sunny smiles from the Fiji isles ❤🎉
Lovely video! It's interesting how the English just uses the same word "love" without change in different functions, "she's my love" "I love you" "I got a love-letter" etc which we shouldn't expect to translate directly into other languages. Unintentional perhaps but it's interesting how you used "sweetheart" prior to going into "heart" phrases.
Thank you so much for this I have been learning Gaelic slowly, and my boy Cillian just died and I wanted something to put on his headstone in Gaelic. This was perfect thank you.
croí is "heart" and is pronounced kree as indicated, but mo chroí is "my heart" and the modifier 'h' changes the sound for the possessive form. It is more noticeable when talking about his and hers: his heart "a chroí" her heart "a croí". You will be doing very well if you learn enough Irish to worry about getting those details precisely correct.
There's no letter k in the irish alphabet (nor j, q, v, w, x, y and z!). Only 18 letters in the alphabet. Although that's changing somewhat with translations of modern english words
I also learned Tá grá mo chroi thú And tá mé I nGrá leat Probably neither are correct, it depends who you learn from but I think they all seem to get message across. Beautiful language. 😍
"Tá mé i ngrá leat" is correct but the other phrase is not. It should be "Is tú grá mo chroí", or simply "Grá mo chroí thú". I speak only Irish to my two daughters, now grown up.

Great video- great pronunciation ☘️However…. “Mo chuisle”- the ‘u’ sound is gentler ( not a ú) . For ex. It almost rhymes with the English word ‘hush’ +’le’ . Mo -ch-uisle . With that ‘ch’ sound at the beginning👍 ‘is tooh mo khwish-leh’
Looks very much like "Do you want a cup of tea?" lol. You're joking, right? Funny. But isn't that also seen as a way of betraying your country to the English occupier? Just thinking...
yep , did you know when victorian britian was ehtnivally cleansing with gusto that one of the gallic/gaelic words for love was "Gaol" and the tans used it for Jail ..bal lad of read ing Gaol by oscar wilde froze this in time and his detractors hadnt a clue .. regarding your original question ... it means there is love at me upon you .. or to edge it down.. I have love for you , now it could also be anintrodcutory .. teh plain ould I fancy ya .. as with everything ..the tone and the look between the eyes is what counts ..
Thank you for taking time to explain each Gaelic word. Rich and very meaningful. Saying these words with you 💖 I feel connected to my loving ancestors of old. Can you do heart warming expression concerning of our "Teaglach", please. These expressions Feels so beautiful. New Subscriber to your channel.
Caraim thú or gráim thú are direct translations, but they're less idiomatic, the verb "car"(also means to be devoted to) was used more in old Irish as "caraid". But these idiomatic ways are much more beautiful.
Thank you for this video. There is something I'm trying to figure out and I hope you can help me. In the video you've said that "mo ghrá thú" and "is tú mo ghrá" are in different dialects. Could you please tell me what dialects they are, respectively? I haven't been able to find that information.
@@siobhanchristine-bligh183 that is the letters H-O-M-E in the Ogham alphabet. It is a form of writing that has been in use in Ireland for more than 1000 years. It is read from bottom to top.
I have very little Irish but I remember in school I learned to say 'Is breá liom milseáin' (I love sweets). So why not say 'Is breá liom tú'? Or is it 'tusa'?
I think that would translate to "I like you" but is brea liom is used more for objects/food rather than people. My advice is try to use one of the examples in the video, they are lovely ❤
I agree with @mscrazymadness that "Is breá liom thú" is more commonly used when referring to things you really like. For example "Is breá liom tae" (I really like tea!). You can certainly use it in a song if it fits the tone and rhythm. Don't forget the 'h' in thú. It changes the sound from "too" to "who"
I notice not every word that comes after "mo" uses lenition, even if the consonant that starts it is eligible for it. Why is that? And why is "is" broad instead of slender?
Yes, I learnt my Irish in schools in Belfast and Dublin. My entire education as gaeilge, even Maths! And yes, I'm sure it sounds very different to the dialects in true gaeltacht areas in Ireland, both now and in the past
You are right, and you have an ear for detail. The 't' in tú in Gaeltacht areas is dental, not alveolar, i.e. it is like the Spanish, French or Italian 't', and unlike the English 't', used by many who learn Irish.
If Everyone Person was to translate as clearly and lovingly of their Language as you do, then learning would not be a problem in any Language Go Raibh Maith Agat.
Only non Irish folk or Gaeilgeoirs say Gaeilge. And if you’re a Gaeilgeoir from Munster you’ll most likely say Gaelinn. But basically no one calls it Gaeilge.
@@MyIrishJeweler A lot of Ulster and Munster speakers still use the genitive case so they would say Conradh na Gaeilice in Ulster, and Conradh na Gaelainne in Munster, Gaeilic and Gaelainn in the nominative and dative. Tá Gaeilic agam nó Tá Gaelainn agam. They only use Gaeilge the old genitive in Connemara for all cases.

Thanks very much, glad you enjoyed it!
I my self have no clue either! But, my Irish sister is flying back to the states this coming Friday! LOL!
My dad often tells me "Ta grá agam duit" - I have love upon you. ❤
What a lovely way to share his love for you. Your dad is a sweetheart
thanks thats the easiest to remeber & say for this irish American yank going to use that now for all my loved ones
No, that translates as 'I have love for you.'
Do you pronounce it similar to hello for duit ( gwit?)
A slight harder d sound. More like 'ditch' in english. In hello (Dia dhuit), the 'h' softens the d sound
"Grá mo chroí thú" - you're the love of my heart
I watch a lot of you tube videos on the Irish language, this was one of the best.
I love that you took the time to give a clear differentiation between each phrase, and the careful guidance on pronunciation. Thank you!
You are very welcome!

Why is this in my recommended? I still love the video 😊
The best way to say "I love you in Irish" is:
"Cupán tae?"
That's a question.

What is origin of Irish words. It sounds like Swedish. Is it because of the Vikings?
I notice not every word that comes after "mo" uses lenition, even if the consonant that starts it is eligible for it. Why is that? And why is "is" broad instead of slender?
@0:48 You used the Irish word 'pós' (marry) to explain 'chuisle'.
Ah, I just listened back. It does sound like I said pós. But I said the english word for "chuisle", which is "pulse"
❤
Im confused. Isnt Gaelic the irish language?
How can I tell my friend that I love him in Irish? not in a romantic way though
Fun tidbit: this word, geal, is related to the English "gold" and Czech žlutý "yellow", coming from the same PIE root with the meaning "to shine"
