We were governed by the English too long so English became seen as more important to actually get somewhere in life. It’s just the way it is. If we were never invaded, we would all be fluent in Irish.
@@rorysampson5492 True English helped our people get somewhere but lets not forget it was illegal to teach Irish for a great deal of Britain's rule over the island
@@HaiLsKuNkY Latin for clergy related items. It was illegal to teach Irish -- even to your children...at home...outside the auspices of the church or the gov't. To chose to only deliver a sermon in Latin is not the same as a state entity outlawing the act of teaching and learning language and ergo culture and heritage. It was cultural genocide unlike the desire for traditional religious dogma. These two do not deserve juxtaposition lest to highlight the degree and absurdity demanded by the british crown.
Yes, but expanding the area wouldn’t do anything and would be factually wrong. A gaeltacht is an area where Gaeilge is spoken in the home predominantly, not where it’s taught in school. Expanding the area where Gaeilge is taught as an L1 (or first language) in school, and is the only language taught in school would be much better. Assuming you mean where it’s taught?
@@zzzzz8421 No, what I mean is expand the area in the sense that more people speak their national language. For people of Celtic background it is a tragedy to see their national languages die. They should be reborn and flourish. This must be a policy of the state. The current policy of the state is to allow Irish a slow death.
Ireland is a sad example of how a native language can collapse and how people can adopt an invading language cy or in this case England for the Motherland.
I thought Ireland was part of the European Shengen area and therefore was obliged to provide living accommodation in all areas of Ireland, so why not people of colour as well?
because of mutt entitlement mentalities like you. 99.9% of Irish people who ever lived werent given accommodations for living either, thats fucking why. Imagine a whitey showing up to africa saying where's my free house at?

00:36 - no mention of the Gaeltacht Quarter in Belfast?
Not an official gaeltacht tho in the view of the irish government
Dia Duit☘️💚
How much of the Irish identity is left? ie these communities.
How about increasing the sizes of Gaeltachta areas?

Could provide you with a kick in the balls Mr herr

Why are there no homes available for EU immigrants there?
There’s no homes for Irish people, do you know anything about the history of Ireland and our economy?
