You COULD challenge the Scotts to a public competition to see who can get more people speaking native languages. You know how stubborn and competitive they are, and it would be a big win.
@@sebby324 so sad to read that. I know that orthographic and grammar rules in Irish are not exactly easy, I can understand that English is more useful nowadays, but considering the suffer of so many Irish citizens along centuries, wouldn't it be nice to conserve alive such a thing like the national language? I've read that in Wales is a bit fashion to speak Welsh among teenagers (maybe I'm wrong)... It'd be cool to see the same in Ireland.
Superb effort... for some people who have only got halfway through Duolingo Irish, I can't wait to be part of a community with the common cause of joining up Irish speakers... being online means that an Irish speaker is no longer like a panda looking for vanishing mates...
I think it's great that there exists a community of Irish speaking folks that are passionate about keeping the language alive and relevant. Being an American and part of the "generic English-speaking demographic", having something as unique as a language like that to associate myself with is something I'll probably never be able to relate to. That said, I think it's a strong part of the cultures that do have that available to them and something to be proud of, so preserving that for future generations seems important to me. Even though it will almost assuredly never see the widespread adoption of English, being able to keep it as a unique element of Irish heritage is such a noble goal. The closest thing I can correlate it with here in the Americas would be all of the native languages across both Northern and Southern continents' various cultures. As an example, I imagine the number of people that can speak Navajo is likely in constant decline and it'll be a sad day when it finally becomes a dead language; it's a part of these kinds of cultures that unfortunately gets lost to time. I can appreciate any effort to keep those unique aspects and traditions going for as long as possible and this video was a cool glimpse at some of the modern approaches for the Irish-speaking community to do just that. Well done!
Some of this accent sounds harsh... Not as soft as the Irish heard from the old timers? But it's good that Irish is becoming so popular to learn and speak again. It seems like it's evolving again and gaining new life these days which is so good!
@@vikingsailorboy When you listen to native speakers, the language sounds poetic. The accent here sounds artificial. She might as well speak Esperanto.
Love how you speak Irish clearly. Despite me being crap at Irish I can actually understand most of what you say. Used to despise Irish at school, probably post colonial chip on shoulder, but now have a renewed interest. Keep up the good work.
No, it wasn't your fault, the school system would make anyone hate it. Postcolonial overhang at work in the institutions, thank God for these alternative sources where the language seems beautiful and alive!
If by 'clearly' you mean with the phonetics of the English language and thus requiring no ear training on the part of the anglophone learner, then yes she speaks 'clearly'. But her pronunciation is actually not good, almost every single word is mispronunced to a greater or lesser extent and in my opinion she could benefit from starting from scratch and learning the phonetics of the Irish language... This will be a challenge as she has already achieved a degree of fluency using anglophonetics and mispronunciations, but it'd be worth the effort
Thank you for this wonderful video. I use it often in my Irish language studies. And thank you for interviewing Caoimhe her Irish is very good! And you éadaoin are very interesting to listen to. slán go fóill!

She actually is, just by producing and uploading these videos. I've been using Duolingo (free phone app, with Irish lessons). I just needed it all put together for me, and She's definitely done that, perfectly.
Sgoinneil! As an American, I find this sort of thing fascinating. I first encountered your online presence in the "Irish People Try" videos. You are both beautiful and quite funny. After some time, I decided to see if you had other videos out there. I had no idea that you were promoting Irish online. I live in an area that has a lot of people of Irish descent. There are little Irish pubs all over the western suburbs of Chicago. However, only a small percentage of these people still speak Gaelic. I have been working on Gàidhlig, since much of my family is of Scottish descent. I can see many similarities, but also many differences. There are, as far as I know, no Gàidhlig speakers in my area, so the going is tough. I commend you for promoting such a beautiful and historic language. Keep up the great work!! Oh, by the way, sneak a little Gaelic into the "Irish People Try" videos. It might pique some interest. Wishing you much success!!
I really loved this video, but most of the Gaeilge channels mention haven't posted in a while. I was looking forward to subscribing to some active Gaeilge channels
Go raibh míle maith agat!!! I have to tell you, I'm crying right now, so happy and relieved that I found your channel. I was exploring my ancestors and found I'm mostly Irish, and in exploring my heritage, I remembered the songs my great grandfather sang to me, in a "magical Faery language". Finding Gaeilge (and Duolingo with app lessons for free!) I fell in LOVE. This language fills my Soul. It feels like something I lost a long time ago, and finding it is better than Christmas morning for a 5 year old. I've struggled with the flow of conversation, and pronunciation with flow and rhythm. I do love singing and have enjoyed TG Lurgan for pronunciation and some word recognition, and I'm grateful for that. I guess what I'm trying to say is, your videos as Gaeilge, are my lifeline to the actual spoken reality. Go raibh míle maith agat!! One day, eventually, I'm only commenting as Gaeilge!! 💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚

Go raibh maith agat Great video. Tried the apostrophe and it seems to work quite well. Have been using a number of sites to learn Irish but progress is a little slow as I have no one to practice with. There doesn't seem to be too many people in Australia that can speak this beautiful language. I have found that Duolingo is quite good now that they have revamped the the site.

I really enjoyed this. A lot of people where I'm from and even some friends of mine would call your dialect of Irish 'Béarlachas' or some would genuinely get annoyed by people speaking like you do. But your grammar and vocabulary are perfect and wo cares if you don't say and pronounce things exactly like we do on the west coast. The English Language has been the dominant language in the East for far longer and you're all entitled to your own dialect too. And although this dialect may sound very Anglicized to us, who cares? Languages influence other languages all the time. Also. because of how clearly you speak and how enunciate all the sounds while many native speakers mumble, this is far better for newcomers to the language. I am currently teaching my Spanish-speaking girlfriend Irish and she loves it but finds a lot of Native speakers hard to understand. I'm going to show her this video and I think she'll understand far more.
Very interesting video. It would also be good if you got someone to add subtitles in Irish as an option in RUclips. In this way people could learn more of the vocabulary you are using.

Bud, if you think that's the best Irish you've ever heard then you clearly haven't heard a lot of Irish. She's fluent but her pronunciation is beginner level. Zero work put in to the right pronunciation, stress, prosody, phonetics in general.
It's a Celtic language, specifially Gaelic/Goidelic Celtic like Scottish Gaelic, and the more distantly related Celtic languages include Welsh and Breton. (Unrelated to English, which is Germanic as I'm sure you know).

Its pronounced ‘Aideen’, which is an anglicised version of the name thats sometimes used.
The inflection over the É is called a fada. It broadens the vowel sound.
So í is pronounced ee
É is pronounced ey (like hey with no h)
Ó is just oh but with more emphasis
Ú is pronounced ooh
Á is pronounced aw
So the Irish name Róisín (f) is pronounced Ro-sheen

Bud, if you think that's the best Irish you've ever heard then you clearly haven't heard a lot of Irish. She's fluent but her pronunciation is beginner level. Zero work put in to the right pronunciation, stress, prosody, phonetics in general.
@@cigh7445 Bubba, I'm an American, where would I hear a lot of Irish? But if I want to compliment someone, well that's my business, not yours, friend.
@@cigh7445 Whose pronunciation is good then?
How do you say 'babes, man's not hot' in Gaelic?
@Owen Williams That would only work if you were literally talking to a child and if you were in a sauna or somewhere hot.
@Owen Williams Té only means hot when it comes to temprature. Gnéasach is a correct translation (which literally means sexy)
A stór, Níl an fear gnéasach
so pretty
where s that language s origin? i m german, speak english a bit but don t understand a single word of irish
It's a Celtic language, specifially Gaelic/Goidelic Celtic like Scottish Gaelic, and the more distantly related Celtic languages include Welsh and Breton. (Unrelated to English, which is Germanic as I'm sure you know).
iontach!

is mise sean =] conas ata tu?
Tidy...
ceart go leor más féidir leat freagra a thabhairt i gaeilge le do thoil ionas go dtuigim agus is é an rud ba mhaith liom a iarraidh ná na dathanna sa gaeilge
Dathanna as Gaeilge? Red is dearg. Pink is bándearg. White is bán. Brown is donn. Green is glas. Blue is gorm. Orange is either flannbhuí or oráiste. Yellow is buí. Purple is corcra.
Ni agus
"No and"?

Nordic is for the Vikings. There were no Celtic Vikings.

Voted down owing to the extremely heavy learner's accent in the video. Hint: try to copy native accents.
Disappointed Englishman agreed
So impressed by your own extensive back-catalogue of videos with precise traditional pronunciation.. oh wait, that's right, you don't have any. Maybe stump up before you tear down, mate. Show us your Irish, then... waiting....
Faigh réidh le fáinne na srón le do thoil
As an Irish learner it took me a few minutes into the video to realise you weren’t speaking Irish ha ha
Irish is the past, a dead past, English is the present and the future.
not true. if irish truly was dead then NO ONE would speak it
As the French used to say about their language
this whole video is uncomfortably loud
