Hi Zoe! Have you checked out our beginners course on learnirishonline.com ? It has everything needed for someone with no to little Irish (past/present/future, greetings, pronunciation, is/tá, prepositions, comprehension, resources, etc..) Let me know if you want more info GRMA!
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.
Hi David. This confusion comes from a weirdness with English. It's clearer with the verb 'open'. Tá an doras oscailte = The door is open Osclaítear an doras = The door is opened But with a verb like 'close', both these sentences are the same in English Tá an doras dúnta = The door is closed (describing the state of the door) Dúntar an doras = The door is closed (closed by someone, but we don't know who) That make sense? I know it's a bit strange.
Bhí sé thuas agus thar a raibh mé ag súil leis. Go raibh míle maith agat. Bhfeidir go bhfuil tú ábalta físéan faoi and tuiseal ginideach agus briathra a úsáid nuair a bíonn tú ag stáidéar nó ag cleachtadh an briathra saor. Bhí sé an-úsáideach agus cabhrach dom! Ní fhéadfadh sé a bheith níos fearr. go raibh maith agat uair eile.
Good video, well explained, thank you.
Ar fheabhas! Go raibh míle maith agat, ,ba mhór an cuidiú é!
These videos are great, an enjoyable way to learn and really well explained
Great videos (1 & 2). The pennies have dropped at last on both the passive and conditional tenses after years of trying to get to grips with them.
Fiseán iontach, a chara! Go raibh maith agat. Bhí sé an-úsáideach agus cabhrach domsa!
Could you do few videos to learn basic Irish?🙏🙏🙏

So the Free Verb must always be used for this kind of construction.....and to say " Ta an doras Dunta" is wrong? The Door is closed.........
