Should I make a new one for 2023?
Yes! I am curious to see if a new generation has learned Irish.
would be interesting to watch a new video, I'm new beginner in irish and find any video good to watch
Ar ndóigh!! D'aistrigh a lán iompair ó na laethanta a rinne tú an chéad físeáin. 😄
Absolutely
Yes please
The "Nil" response is such a mood
and the "pard'n?".
For some reason I thought he said 没有
Fitting he had a rugby jersey on
Níl**
It’s níl** akshully 🤓
"do you have Irish?"
"I have a lot of irsh."
That is how irish grammar works
In Irish you say you have things pretty often. It's the same with emotions in Irish, you don't say you are sad you say you have sadness on you
So she’s translating it literally and not into proper English?
@@ishish8816 no it's correct. That's just the structure of the language. If you translated the proper English sentence of let's say "I am sad" you would get "ta bron orm". It's just that if you break that Irish sentence down based on the individual words it reads as " I have sadness on me"
That’s the way we talk. He could have had a lot of Irish on him and we would understand that, too!
We really do sound like Sims 😆
I always said Dutch sounds like the Sims, but now that you mention it…..hahahah
That's because other languages are spoken with a different accent, but Irish nowadays is spoken with mostly the same accent as is used in Irish English so it sounds a bit like jiberish in your own accent rather than another language.
I left this comment years ago on a Tiktok video of Gaelic and I got ripped to shreds lol
@@jerusalem4492you think so? I’m Dutch so I can’t hear it in that way 😂😂
That’s so funny
@@jerusalem4492Nah the sims is Italian with an American accent 😂
Wow that fluent guy ❤
First guy too tho ❤
As a Scot and learner of Gàidhlig, its great to see how it's at least common for people on the street to have a bit of Gaelic, even if just a little to say "I dont". Not the same here and its a shame. Our version of "do you speak gaelic" is "A bheil Ghàidhlig agad?" Or "Do you have gaelic?" Or more specifically "Is gaelic at you?". Thats how we express having things in Goidelic languages, you dont 'have' things, they are 'at' you.
Tbf to you guys Scotland has more diversity in language with Gaelic English and Scots
@@quandaledingle7812 Scots is little more than a dialect.
That's really interesting. Thanks for explaining that lovely concept. From Uruguay 😊
I studied a bit of Russian years ago and they have a similar structure for the concept of "having". They don't have a specific verb so they say "next to me there is" (у меня есть).
I wonder if it is a coincidence or an old Indo-European trait that has survived in these languages but not in the rest
@@osasunaitorthat structure with the verb "to have" (using "at me" or "with me" and "there is") is found in all the Semitic languages such as Arabic and Hebrew. It is found in Welsh as well (another Celtic language like Gaelic). This led linguists to speculate whether the Celtic languages came in contact with Semitic speakers and developed a Semitic substrate for certain concepts. There are entire UA-cam videos about it but the theory is not universally accepted. The theory is based on the ancient Phoenicians originating in Lebanon but who had a presence in the Mediterranean as sea traders and had significant contact with the western side of the British Isles.
My father taught himself Irish Gaelic.
He taught me to say "I don't understand." in Gaelic as a sort of joke on his friends that spoke it native.
They all laughed about it while I tried to figure out why a legitimate answer was humorous.
Nil is agam is kinda the fuck it don't care not interested but I have to show you I understand and have to answer kinda moment
Because it's funny, I mean you could spend some time learning it better, and then it wouldn't be a joke anymore.
@@livedandletdie I loved my Dad, but he was a lousy teacher.
I tried!
Ur father is Irish, roflmao. Such a dad joke
@@ywoulduchoosetousethisOnly for racists
As a Welsh person, absolutely love this! Éirinn go brách ❤️

Are Welsh and Irish Gaelic mutually comprehensible languages?
@@no_more_spamplease5121 Yes and no. It's a closer language than between Welsh and English, but you wouldn't be able to have a proper conversation between the two. Breton in France is a closer language to Welsh than Gaelic is
Irish Gaelic sounds so cool! It is like a fantasy language.
Happy for you guys, been trying to learn my native language Cornish
Just visited Ireland this summer and I was fascinated by all of your history. It’s so sad what has happened to your beautiful country but I’m glad there are still many people out there trying to preserve such an amazing culture!
The ancient language spoken in most of the central and north-western Iberian peninsula before the Roman Conquest was celtiberian.
An old language belonging to the same family tree than Irish.
More than 2.000 years ago the Romans conquered the peninsula and all those celtic languages died.
O wow I didn't even know that they have their own language,.that's amazing!
Beautiful, never let it be forgotten 💙
So wonderful to listen to languages that still survive after European colonization. Hundreds, or even thousands of languages have been lost here in America.
Sounds so cute
I always thought it was a beautiful language, and as a kid, my teacher taught our class some Gaelic. Also we could do basic river dancing. I am from florida.
We Germans love the Irish.
Hi, greetings from Ireland 🇮🇪 to Germany 🇩🇪. I know a few German people, I have been to Aachen, the Harz region, Halberstadt. Beautiful places there.
Love the Irish language. I’m English cockney & Iv always loved Irish accents ❤
Irish people, learn your native language! Its way cooler than english 🙏💗
The stupid ad was covering up the translation closed captioning, so we didn’t know what they were saying.
I’m glad they’re keeping their language alive.
Love it. Is that Gaelic? It’s beautiful!❤❤❤❤❤
Gaeilge
Just bring it back in school as first language lol
I genuinely tried to learn Irish for one and a half years as my third foreign language. It isn't as difficult as a lack of materials is. Now I do German for less than a month, I already can read through a text for native speakers with a dictionary, a pleasure I didn't achieve in Irish still.
Loved this! Subscribed and I would love more of this content, interviewing ppl on the street to see if they speak Irish!
Duolingo said that they got more Irish learners there than the actual speakers
I've never really heard Irish Gaelic, but it sounds really nice. Wish Gaelic was alive and taught in Scotland, it's a shame to lose the language when Welsh and Irish are kept going.
SHES SAID I AM MOMMY WHAT A QUEEN
It's interesting that Irish grammar seems somewhat similar to Spanish in terms of having adjectives, rather than being them. It's also interesting how common or popular French names seem to be among the Irish, particularly women (in case you're wondering why I brought it up, Claire is French).
Well, Claire (technically Clair, no?) may be French but that's not my name. My name is Clare. I am named after the Irish county of Clare. In Irish, my name is Clár. So while there is a French name Claire, that's not actually *my* name. Although I do have a cousin with a french surname so you're right on the French influence! 😂
@@Clisare I've seen it spelled both ways. And it's always interesting to see the little similarities between languages and cultures that people think of as completely disparate. It shows we're all human and there's only so many real differences between us.
Irish sounds like english played backwards
Im American, and I didn’t even know Ireland had a native language other than English. 😅🙈 Sounds really cool 🎉 Hope more people learn it.
The guy in white pullover sounds like a Swedish.
I just found out I’m 20% Irish, wish I could learn some😊
As someone with the name Catriona, hearing it properly pronounced in irish/gaelic was incredible. I've never heard it proper. Thank you
Four syllables or GTFO! ❤❤
Hi Cat aka Catriona, how are you. Greetings from Ireland 🇮🇪 to Canada 🇨🇦 (I think 🤔). Irish is a lovely language though not widely used here. Those of us who speak it, love it. I wish you a lovely day. Slán = goodbye for now 👍🙏 Michael
this sounds like the sims characters
I love Irish people ❤❤❤❤
someone that doesn't speak it. sounds like the language that the minions speak.
this would be interesting to see in Wales (but with welsh of course)
The third person is so phine 👀
That was so cool!
Such a cool and Interesting language wow!!!
It sounds like the sims language.
It sounds so nice
Opressor always goes after your language first, its easy to forget why you must fight when there isnt anything to speak of
Even I know the Gaelic word for city “baile”
I speak scottish gaelic and it always throws me off cause I recognise a lot of words but then I can't understand the accent 🤣
Hoping for a 21st century Irish language comeback. And an Irish comeback in general.
So this is where the sim characters got their language from
Depends on how you pronouce it, for example i pronouce whats the time as "cain ti me"
My mind is blown! 😳
Oooooooh my goodness... I'm in love❤❤❤
the guy sounda kinda dutch accent
BRO IM FINDING OUT ITS A LANGUAGE AT ALMOST 4 IN THE MORNING WTFF
Is she the Rattling Bog singer ?
Me? No
An oldie but a goodie
Oh okay…, so another Scandinavian language, only this one settled it selfs on an island hidden behind a larger island ?
Now I’m waiting for an Irish chef 🫢
It sounds amazing though. 🍻
It's a celtic language
No insult to the Irish, but this is what Quebec fights so hard no to become. After centuries of colonization, occupation and brutality, most Irish must use the Englishman's language to communicate. Vive loi 101
Sounds like
Me? Gongaga.
I never knew Irish was a language
Best I can do is 1-10 thanks to my nan 😂
The Irish have taken great care to make sure their language was not completely destroyed by the British.
Racist hate
the English- some Brits were also busy trying to keep their language alive in spite of them
And now it's being ruined by mass immigration
I’m feeling awfully attacked in this comment section 😂
@@Lili-fs5yr Try to ignore it. Anybody can comment. Just remember that. Always consider the source, and since you don’t know the source, try to ignore.
The 3rd person makes you want to learn Irish. He spoke it like it was a delicious food. Beautiful and pleasant to the ears. Had to watch 7x because of him.
Nah
@MaybeOrangeJuice. Yah.
Idk, but Irish sounds pretty hideous to me. Like someone with a mouthful of marbles, who can't enunciate consonants. It's like they speak with the vocal muscles of a toddler.
You experience food woth your ears?? Well now you know why they don't teach Irish cause you get statements like this dork.😅
Sounds Danish.
Wales have boosted the amount of Welsh speakers over the last 20 years making sure that it’s taught in all Welsh schools. We’re hoping to get a million Welsh speakers by 2050 after the English tried bullying it out of us. I hope the Gaelic Irish and Scots do the same.
Don't blame the English blame the English elites from decades ago
*Welsh elites. Dont forget the the Royals have a Prince of Wales, several prime ministers have been Welsh, the Tudor dynasty who happily continued legal discrimination and forced assimilation of Wales were literally Welsh and most of the industrial era Welsh elite were cross border land owners pushing the Empire along.
You and I as ordinary people in the Isles have more in common than the rich bastards stamping their boots on us, but who were born in the manor around the corner
We Scots are trying to rebuild our amazing language
@@AlbannachEditz😂😂😂😂😂
@@AlbannachEditzyour two amazing languages. Scots Gaelic and Scots
We learn Irish in school since junior infants, so I’m ok ish at gaeilge.
Not unless you went to a gealscoil did you really learn Irish
@@mikeyyiannaki5786Even in Gaelscoils you don’t learn real Irish, the standard of Irish in the schools is so bad that people joke about it calling it Gaelscoilis instead of Gaeilge.
That’s also ignoring how all the Irish in the school system is a watered down simplified version with English sounds.
@@cygnusmir1627 Ireland needs to get its shit together
Yea I have autism so after 3rd class I never had to learn it again and I won’t cause I don’t give a shit it’s to hard
I love this so much, yes reclaim your language!! That’s what Korea did with Japanese. I get Ireland’s time of colonization was longer, however, and English as lingua franca of the world makes it silly to let go of English completely, but I love seeing Irish people speak their language!! Love Ireland 🇮🇪… from the 🇺🇸 and 🇰🇷
My paternal grandmother is Korean, and my maternal grandmother was Breton!
That's why I'm learning Bretoned and Korean... the Japanese wanted to erase Korean, and the French wanted to erase Bretoned... the French almost succeeded, but it's having a resurgence like the other celtic languages.
만세!
@@gwenethp511TIL Breton is not just a Skyrim race haha
truly hope there will be a day where the irish language is as widely spoken in ireland as korean is now in korea
That's what ruzzia did to Ukraine
@@gwenethp511frankly I live in bretagne and no one speak breton anymore but really old people (and they struggle). I sincerely doubt it will come back , the bretonnant are struggling to even agree on how to speak it while everyone is moving around for work and getting more and more mixed. But it's the same for every regional language here. The only ones having a future are corsican and overseas languages considering on how they insist having tv show in their languages and hosting assembly where they speak it😅
Having Scottish Gaelic, this is a trip. Like I can basically understand what they're all saying but the sounds are different enough that it's sort of uncanny lol
I can relate to this! I am of a mixed race which is Brazilian/American and I can immediately tell the difference between Brazilian Portuguese and other races’ pronunciations and slang in Portuguese. The uncanniness is REAL and it’s wild to me how different they sound in comparison to what I’m familiar with.
I wish there wete more resources available to learn Irish Gaelic.
It’s on Duolingo, though I can’t speak as to the quality of the course
@@beesforbreakfastIt's better than most other resources....most likely.
Drops has an Irish course too
@@beesforbreakfast I struggle to commit to Duolingo due to the nature of the courses. Although, if not many resources are available then Duolingo might be your only reasonable option. It can maybe teach you the language but it has a very weird ordering system and it is hard to take it super seriously. I would recommend it to anyone seriously trying to learn a language to order a textbook, and create a strict regiment. This is especially important if your goal is to learn more than just a couple basic words. Keep in mind I do not speak Gaelic I am currently trying to learn German this is more just basic language knowledge which I believe would apply to any language but bear with me please.
@@beesforbreakfast I can only speak from the perspective of someone attempting to learn it through Duolingo, but I have very little faith in the accuracy of the pronunciations demonstrated. From what I understand though, Gaeilge is quite regional. I suspect that the "correct" way to speak it varies quite heavily depending on where you currently are, much like how German does. It is an incredibly fascinating language to learn, however!
As a fully irish person from the country, i speak more spanish than i do irish and i have been doing irish in school for 11 years, and spanish for 3
As a fully Spanish speaking dude from Latin America, I’d love to learn Irish. After listening to Clannad and Enya nothing was the same.
Sounds like a skill issue.
Spanish is easier. Also you are probably more interested in it than in Irish, or your teacher is just bad.
@@ernesto2024_core Unless you’re visiting and moreover are planing to move to Ireland, I don’t think it’s worth it.
My father was fluent but sadly he never taught us....I only know a few random words...
Learn it please.
Teach it to your kids if you have any. There is a revival of Irish traditions, culture, language, spiritual teachings happening now.
Be part of it or we will loose it with the colonisation of foreign nationals being pushed by the replacement agenda in our little country as we speak.
Go raibh maith agat 💚🙂
@@tubbyrainbow111 🥸
That’s already more Goidelic language to grow up with than most of us Scottish/Irish Canadians/Americans would have. I urge you to learn it 💖 Trust me, if you want to know the Irish language you have resources to learn. Where I come from, there are endangered languages with individuals from local communities trying very hard to get to that point where they can have resources, courses and books for their youth to re-introduce themselves to their indigenous languages. We are lucky that we are finally seeing more language resources for both Brythonic and Goidelic branches. And especially for Irish/Gaeilge, you have a lot of music of both contemporary and traditional natures to explore. Guím gach rath ort ar do thuras foghlama teanga🍀
@@tubbyrainbow111 ofc the great replacement xD this is so 2014
My grandfather grew up in Ireland but never spoke it
Irish is so pretty, hearing it spoken fluently makes the Irish accent make sooooo much sense haha
It sounds so beautiful when spoken, especially when spoken fast! Good luck to you from Russia
Kinda ironic hearing this from russian, don't you think so?
@@pipuslapsus🤡
@@pipuslapsusPeople are not their nations, no matter how convenient it is for us to box them in.
@@pipuslapsuswhy?
@@pipuslapsusikr😅 they've been destroying Ukrainian language for centuries
😊 we should have more Irish TV programmes and films. It's like music to my ears.
Ah you got more than I would have thought in Dublin! More out west, yeah? Slainte mhaith!
west is best
Last summer, on holiday in the north and west, I wore t-shirts with "Labhair liom!" and "Tá Cúpla Focal Agam". A few actually noticed them and spoke to me in Irish, but they usually quickly shifted to English to ask me where I was learning (mostly online). I did get a few conversations out of folks, though, and they were kind enough to not laugh at my accent. I even stayed at a B&B in County Antrim where the owner spoke Irish and taught Irish! (Teach an Cheoil in Ballyvoy)
That was what my mum used to say every time she raised a glass!
It means 'Good Health' in the Irish
@@FunkeeDrewster
I’ve a load of friends in Galway raising their kids with only Irish. There’s a proper movement in the west.
It blows my mind that my ancestors spoke Irish and Welsh. I’d have been totally hopeless. I feel very humbled.
@@katmandudawn8417 Well many people struggle to learn english which is a very simple and practical language (plus there is a lot of material on it)
But any native Irish living in a native Irish territory would pick it up naturally during early childhood. (The same way any other language functions, the children learn to speak only in their native tongue)
I can honestly say I’ve never heard someone speak Irish in my whole existence…I didn’t even realize they had a language if we are being honest! 😂
We get that a lot 😂
It's also my first time. And I know a lot of Irish people lol. Maybe they speak it amongst each other but not when they're with other people?
@@NwabisaRadebemost Irish people these days do not speak it. They learn it in school but aren't fluent in it by any means. But street signs are in both languages and they do try to keep it alive as much as possible.
@@TheKillahKyla It must be a huge flex when you can have a full conversation in Irish 😁
@@NwabisaRadebeHello Nwabisa how are you. Greetings from Ireland. Irish is a lovely language - I can speak it. I wish you a lovely day 👍🙏 Slán = goodbye for now, Michael
To be perfectly honest I know I'm losing a lot because I don't speak to others anymore even when I'm seeing family back in Ireland they just stopped for some reason
They should preserve their language
They do.
@@JSGRanks well 700 years of systematic oppression by a rapacious neighbour tends to have a somewhat negative effect. But laugh away by all means.
We do but its not practical for most people and its taught terribly by dullards
They are now. Just like in Scotland. Hundreds of years of the language being illegal made it a bit difficult to preserve and yet, unlike many other English speaking countries, we've still held tight enough on to our heritage that we're able to bring these ancient traditions back.
@@pixiesouter9461 happy to hear that
That young man who studies Irish in school. He is the pride of Ireland 🇮🇪
Im from Ireland too! I think they should teach us more irish in schools now a days, but go raibh mait agat as an bhfíseán seo

As a Ukrainian, I feel you, Irish brothers. Empires always try to opress our identity by making us forget our language.
As a Ukrainian born in America, we learned the modern version of the language which is very heavily integrated from the Russian language. I can hardly understand when people speak actual Ukrainian. It's sad.
As a Russian, I'm truly sorry for what your country has to go through right now because of my government, and what your people had to go through for centuries because of Russian imperialism. Ukrainian culture and language are beautiful.
Чувак, підтримую, але Слава Богу мої завжди спілкувалися українською в Києві, тому знаю і повністю перейшла вже як 2 роки майже, і дійсно бачу паралель з Ірландцями❤
The Soviet Union actually encouraged Ukrainian during most of its existence, even in areas where it was never spoken. They made a move about Taras Shevchenko is 1951, while Stalin was alive, for Pete's sake. While it is mostly in Russian it includes a long speech in the Borderlandish dialect called 'Ukrainian'.

im so glad the irish took such care to make sure their language wasn’t completely wiped out. its such a beautiful language
This is awesome to hear, Clare. 😎👍🏼
Irish lads are so fitt😍
Ah, the music from 2010's Clisare.
I’ve been sneaking it back in lately 😆
This is exactly how it sounds when Ive been tripping my face off and trying to have a conversation with someone
I soooo soo love this as an Moroccan amazigh! I take pride in speaking my mother tongue and make sure to speak it at home and with my little brother who was born in France. Lets keep our languages protected and make sure they never die
It is so beautiful, i could listen all day ❤

This is a great idea. People should make more of an effort, everyone has a bit more than they realise.

Definitely a fun watch! Brilliant as always

They prefer it if you call the language Irish
Its really sad they can't speak their own language

Did u watch the video?
I've always wondered whether the Irish had a native language. This is my first time hearing it. Please Irish people must protect and continue to speak thier language so it doesn't die out.
This seems like a common thought in the comments. Even I didn't realize they have an actual language..I..don't know what I thought to be honnest
