This is the first episode of ‘Buntús Cainte’ (Basic Conversation) a series of brief instructional programmes aimed at beginners in Irish, which began broadcasting on 25 September 1967.
Presenters Máire O’Neill and Aileen Geoghegan take viewers through some basic phrases about the weather. Illustrations are used alongside phrases such as, “Tá sé te” “It is hot”.
Although the presenters address viewers in English and Irish they do not translate any of the phrases being taught into English. Subtitles are used to show the phrases in Irish.
You know you're Irish when you start to discuss the weather.
I remember Bernadette Ni Ghallchoir presented Buntus Cainte and also Eurovision 1971 here in Ireland 🇮🇪
Was that the one where she had a breakdown and made a complete bollucks of the whole thing?
Brodil az,,,ma an da are Erin ,I grew in London,,this is gold for me☘
Go hiontach go raibh maith agat mo chairde hEirranach!
Aileen is quite lovely.
Irish - or Gaelic I guess - sounds a lot like Hebrew. Or Arabic. Apparently, early tribes came to Ireland from the Levant
@@hmq9052 Yeah I think they/we came from all over.
I'm in north west England and there's a huge percentage of people with Irish ancestry.
@@SpotlessLeopard Might explain the dark hair I guess. Apparently the Welsh are also connected to the Arabs. When you think about it Tom Jones does look at bit like Colonel Gadaffi.
@@hmq9052 Yeah it does make a lot of sense.
The red hair and freckles thing is often a myth.
@@hmq9052 the similarities actually extend beyond sounding similar, Irish shares a number of grammatical peculiarities with Semitic languages as well, a linguistic channel called Langfocus made a video about it. However Irish is also considered to be an indo-European language as well. I think therefore it’s an indo European language with a Semitic subtrate
Ah yes, Maire O'Neill and Aileen Geoghan, I wonder what theyre doing now. I think that was around 1966 or 67. I thought Leabhar Gaelige Linn with Eoghain O'Sullibhain was far better. It used to be on at a minute past 6 every evening just after the angulas.
Everyone wants to talk about learning Gaelic but nobody wants to talk and learn about the master craftsman builder from way back in time An Gobán Saor and his son, My brothers, sister and I learned a lot about the Gobán Saor and his son from our dear departed father who told us also should us the remains of one of his old castles, The building still exists on Henry Gordons old farmlands and that is a recorded fact
who the hell gives a crap!

Women aren't supposed to be quiet
@@caimin15221522 They were back in the 60s when grandad here got away with slapping the wife
They saw you coming and they ran away
Go raibh maith agat :)
The Irish government destroyed the Irish language with its inept teaching programme since idependence. Most of the reachers weren't native speakers and had only a rudimetary knowledge of the language themselves and poor pronunicatiion. Language programmes such as these taught basic phrases but you can't speak a language with basic phrases.A functional language is a means of communication. The Irish language is basicaly dead in that regard.
