Cad faoi "Gur"?

Iontach

Haigh. Go raibh maith agat as an bhfíseán seo. I am wondering if you have any autistic students? As an autistic person, I could use some tips. I have been challenging myself for about the past 3 years to learn Irish, a life long dream (I am 61 now and studied Ancient History / Celts / Mythological Cycle in college.) I am trying to learn because spoken language is a bit of an unruly beast for me - and I am the kind of person that wants to meet the beast head on. Even so, I get despondent in my inability to comprehend spoken Irish. What tips can you give me as an autistic person attempting to overcome what feels like a titanic barrier in the way of my progress? (PS: Will be signing up with you because I find this Éist Arís format to be hella useful, if frustratingly difficult.) GRMMA!

Really helpful/useful! GRMMA!😊

Tá mé ag éisteacht leat le fada a lá anois coinnigh suas an obair maith go raibh maith agat

Tá mé ag foghlaim le fada …..mar a déarfá: tá fiacla áille agat ;)

Tá mé ag foghlaim le fada …..mar a déarfá: tá fiacla áille agat?

Hello! I’ve been listening to your í bhfad ❤❤ Go raibh míle maith agat

First rule don't spell words backwards.

Me, still a beginner but watching this video anyway and hanging on to every word knowing full well it’s above my level: 👁️👄👁️

Fiseán iontach, a chara! Go raibh maith agat. Bhí sé an-úsáideach agus cabhrach domsa!

For 'an méid sin/that much', does this mean similar to 'a large amount of', or something else?

What?

Hello I Just loved your video...Keep It up

Grmma 😊

The ending doesn't have to be "ooh" every time, that's only in ulster. It's pronounced different in munster and connacht dialects. I suspect the caighdeán oifigiúil follows the connacht pronounciation.

Grmma

GRMA tigim gach focal go math!

Haigh a liam!!! I've been listening to your podcast daily for about 6 months, your voice soothes my cats they know you so well! Thank you!

Go raibh míle maith agat. Thank you for sharing all these phrases. tabhair aire duit féin

Loved presentation

I like this a lot.

"an" creates a séimhiú down south even for the dntls. So it would be an-thionchar here in munster.

Go raibh míle maith agat!

I am brand new to learning Irish. I’ve spent two weeks on Duolingo and have learned over 180 words and phrases so far, but I’m really a beginner, and this seemed to cover nuances and subtleties that an intermediate student would need to know, but I’m still trying to find out how to pronounce Dia duit! (I’ve heard it several different ways), and why is there an “h” in some versions of a word but not in others? (Ghaeilge/Gaeilge? Bhean/Bean?) I haven’t learned the days of the week or the numbers yet. I will check out your other videos, but what I need are slow and clear explanations of pronouncing basic words and spelling patterns (by a human rather than a computer). I teach French as a second language and English as a first language, and I have also studied Italian and Spanish (and language acquisition theory), so I have a good understanding of how to learn a language. I know my students would be overwhelmed if I tried to get the beginners to remember all the grammar rules and exceptions that exist in French. Thank you for this, though, I can see I have a long way to go.

Music is annoying

Interesting but please speak mire slowly!

So this was rather brilliant. How do we access full content?

Will this be school Irish or native irish

I wish TG4 would also have irish subtitles on some programs as the English is great but i dont what was actually said in irish as it to fast at times and would be great yo replay and repeat the phrase or sentence ...esp for peeps with me with mediocre irish ....😮 Could you have a gearr fhocail with them 😁

I'm so glad to find a news website as gaeilge that actually reports on the news that people outside the gaeltachts might care about. That being said, surely the people in the gaeltachts also want to know all the interesting stuff going on in the world that is normally not covered in Irish-language news for some reason.

Ceacht iontach. Go raibh maith agat.

Very helpful! Thank you.

Liam, Grmm agat arís. Conas a labhraíonn tú an Ghaeilge comh soiléir? Tá an fiseán seo simplí agus suimúil. Déanfaidh tú na daoine go léir ó Éire dul go dtí sa Spáinn! Ní féidir liom Gaeilge a labhairt mar a lán daoine Gaeilge ,in ainneoin ceithre blian deag á caitheamh é ag foghlaim sa scoil. (Caithfidh mé a rá 40 blian ó shin). Ach ceapaim go bhfuil suim ag teacht ar a lán daoine anois san dteanga, buiochas leatsa agus le Manchan Magan. Tá brón orm ar na mbotúin , táim cinnte go mbeadh mil marcannaa dearga ar seo i mo chóipleabhar sa scoil!

What's the annoying music for?

Tá Teanglann is hiontach! Is iontach an rud é Abair.ie maidir le foghraíocht a chloisteáil i gceantair éagsúla na Gaeltachta. (Teanglann is great! Abair.ie is great for hearing pronunciation in different areas of the Gaeltacht.)

Thanks for the tips. It was difficult to hear you well over the loud background music, particularly later in the video.

Thanks Liam. It's good to talk about how to practice the language. I am 71 years old and I did get my leaving cert. but I have lost a lot of the Gaeilge over the years. I do think classical teaching, as I have known it did not help when developing 'speaking' other languages. I am Irish, an English writer, living in the Netherlands and I am picking up my Gaeilge again, thanks to you.

In Munster we have more contracted forms for an modh coinníollach - rithfeadh muid = rithfimis, rithfeadh siad = rithfidís. But it's probably easier for learners to just remember rithfeadh.

The music is annoying And unnecessary

That was interesting. However, I lost confidence in you when I reached number 10, as there are errors in the English text.

Grma

At fheabhas. Go raibh maith agat.

Beautiful language and you do a wonderful job teaching and explaining. If I may, are there any books that you might recommend that contain word pronunciation?

Good to get these broke down like this. Very helpful. Are there more like this?

The whole "dé/ar an" thing is mostly because people don't know that "dé" is the dative of "dia" and that it takes the genitive form of the day name. There isn't really a "second system" here like there is with numbers. Mind you, putting that in a beginner friendly way isn't easy, and it doesn't help that déardaoin is such an oddball or that the dative case is mostly in its death throes.

Now, the bit about numbers with plurals isn't exactly correct. If I were to say "trí shicín", I'm talking about three chickens as a group, but if I say "trí sicíní", I'm taking about three individual chickens. You can use plural, but there's a semantic difference there.

Can you please make a video about verbal adjectives and how to make them please
