Hello Teacher! I'm starting to learn and practice Irish! Very interesting structure of your language! And thank you for "Your easy way to teach" From México City, Hello to the Ireland People! 🤔😇🇲🇽😎
Congratulations Dane! A complete Irish lesson video! 👏👏👏Avec mon plaisir! Mon Cher ami! From México City😊 To All Irish People!!! Hola a todos!!! 🤔🙃🍇🍷🍾🥂🎉😇🇲🇽😎
A very clear explanation of this structure which complements the alternative approach (guided immersion) Duolingo takes. Traditional language learners like me can really benefit from your tutorials. Thank you.
Is there a way to distinguish between need and want in a sentence, or is it up to the interpretation of the listener? English separates the two, meaning I'll know when someone wants or needs water because they will explicitly and definitively state so. But it seems Irish doesn't work that way here. Is that correct?
Why did you use "más é do thoil é" instead of "le do thoil"? Is it because le do thoil would please a comma before like "Tá ceapaire le sicín uaim, le do thoil"?
Hi Dane, thank you for the video. Could you recommend a few Irish children's books, preferably duo-lingo English/Irish? I would like to have as many as I can and also give a few to my grandchildren. I have looked on Amazon but can't really tell which one's would be good. Do you have any favorite stories from your childhood I could research? Nothing too difficult, kids books, maybe up to the age of 7. Thanks.
Does the òapply to names? Like Mac or Mc means son or son ofLike McLean For example. , òMalley or òRiely?. Does it still mean from? Sorry if I asked that in a confusing way🤣

Another very clear explanation. Great to learn how to use this in a way thats so easy to remember. You really have a talent for clear explanation. Nice one.
I remember at first I thought this way to phrase it was sort of strange, but then I realized both my native language (Finnish) and English actually originally do the same. To be wanting means to be without.
Just like Ireland was without food when the English tried to wipe us out during the Famine of 1845-52. I would call that an attempted genocide, what's the Finnish for genocide?
I go to an Irish speaking school and no one has ever said "Tá (something) uaim" even though it makes perfect sense to me. Even the teachers who are very skilled at Irish would say "Tá (something) ag teastáil uaim" or "Tá (something) de dhíth orm" if they needed something and if something was less urgent or they only wanted it (instead of needing it) they would say "Táim ag iarraidh (something)". I'm not sure if this is because of differences between dialects or something similiar but it is interesting.
I think it's good to have a bit of variation in the way you say things, if you're answering a question or writing an essay then this will look good and display more richness.
@@LearnIrish that's true. I really like how uaim sounds so I'm going to start using it a bit more regularly if I can instead of the other ones I mentioned above
Best way I can explain it is like learning French in school and then hearing local French people speaking French in a completely different way, it’s not wrong it’s just a casual way to say it. The way the teachers would say it in your school is what they would want you to use when writing an essay. Just slightly more formal phrasing.
Hi, loved the video. Nice and simple and easy to understand. I've been using Duolingo to refresh my Irish after being out of school for 10 years. Is there a way to know for sure if it's referring to a need or a want? Duolingo has used both ways, like you have here, but using the verbal form of teastaigh. So like I've used "Ta ceapaire uaim" to mean "I want a sandwich" and "Teastaionn ceapaire uaim" to mean "I need a sandwich" (sorry for the lack of fadas, my laptop doesn't want to do them right now...) Is this correct/incorrect, or is it purely contextual to know whether it means need or want? Thanks!

I’ve been learning Irish from dualingo but it leaves a lot out. Your channel has been a great help in filling in these gaps. Go raibh maith agat.

Ask yourself why would you say Hello on a Monday but you might say Hi on a Tuesday. Then apply the answer to this scenario.

Yes mac is son of and O is from, such as O Reilly, from Reilly etc
Welsh for from is o
An interesting similarity

Yes try the Collins collection of grammar and verbs. And maybe Motherfoclóir.

From a Hibernian Yank, my head is spinning.
I needed this video so bad, the lesson on Diolingo is killing me 😄
"Duo""
Duolingo has its limitations.

What's memrise?

Wow! Very clear and helpful. Thank you.

Is this correct/incorrect, or is it purely contextual to know whether it means need or want?
Thanks!
You could use ba mhaith liom to mean i want as well and this will give you a bit of variation.
But wanting and needing are essentially treated as one.
If teastaigh is the verb to want or need, couldn’t you say “teastaím” to say “I want”?
You could possibly use that but that would be too simple and these ancient Celtic languages are no fun if they are simple.
Another great lesson👍🏻🇮🇪👍🏻
