The interesting thing is that for non-English speakers, it's way easier to make sense of the Irish spelling. I'm looking forward to having time to retake my Gaeilge (right now I am stuck with differential equations)
These are amazing videos. My ancestors are from Kerry. Many were fishermen. My great grandparents came over and settled in Brooklyn, NY. Surprisingly, I heard very little phrases growing up, but remember being so curious about the beauty of seeing the Gaelic words around our home when I was a little girl. Now that I’m a mother, I’m learning the language myself while teaching my children (they are 56% Irish) in hopes bits of the language can be carried on. My 3-year-old son woke up the other day and said “dia duit” and we always say “le do thoil” even when everything else we may be speaking is English. I will be homeschooling my children and intend on having Irish Gaelic as part of the curriculum- so grateful for resources like this!
I am brand new to learning Irish (as in just two weeks on Duolingo so far), and this is the kind of slow, clear pronunciation guide I need, since I have no prior knowledge of Irish (I’m from California)! I teach English and French, but we don’t use terms like genitive and nominative, etc. around here, so I am going to have to learn when to use which form. I like learning all the variations and when to use each one (and the specific pronunciation guide), but the background music could be turned down a little. It was distracting. Go raibh maith agat!
This is what we need, our language restored. Go raibh maith ??

Perfect pacing in this.

Glad that you are enjoying the channel. Have fun in Ireland!
