14 year old American trying to learn Irish over quarantine. It hurts my brain, but these videos really help! Thanks!

I'm in love with the Irish people. Something HAS to do be done to keep and grow the Irish language!!

I'm an American who's been learning Irish on my own for years. I finally broke through enough to be doing my Masters degree in Irish. I've had to accept that I'll never fully master it, but that eternal challenge and search for improvement is precisely why I love it so much. Your videos have helped me so much, go raibh míle maith agat!

Hello , I am a native of Ireland .Thank you so much for your gift and sharing our language. it has always been a dream of mine to learn our language fluently. I feel it is so important for every culture to know and be connected to their native tongue. Go raibh Míle mo chara

I have been trying to learn the language of my ancestors for years. NO ONE else, person or app, breaks down the phonetic pronunciation the way you do here. BLESS YOU!

God bless Irish people.

As someone who holds my country and culture above all else and want to learn the language of my people this helps exponentially thanks🇮🇪

Im half irish half tunisian and grew up in england. I've always had fond memories of visiting my grandad in ireland, and wanted to learn the language, since im a teenager the earlier the better! Weirdly enough as i started learning I felt that I had been missing something, and now I am whole again. I am really grateful for your videos for teaching me irish!!! Lots of love!! Dia duit!! ❤

I became interested in learning Irish because I learned about how the British would keep tally sticks for Irish students and issue corporal punishment for each time a student uses an Irish word. I didn’t ever know my great grandfather and grandmother, but I felt an intense political obligation to learn the language for them. They were from Donegal, so I feel so glad to learn from someone who speaks the way that they spoke. Go raibh maith agat.

I was born in Limerick named after Pearse and spoke Gaelic fluently, my family moved to Canada when I was 8 (I’m 18 now). But the plan for me at least has always been to go back home. I sadly lost my native tongue so thanks so much for making these videos they’ll be a great help!

I UNDESTOOD EVERY WORD YOU SAID TO MY SHOCK,IT JUST POPED BACK IN TO MY HEAD FR0M SCHOOL .GOG BLESS LOVELY GIRL

My great-grandmother moved from Clonbur to Boston in the early 20th century. She didn't come back to visit until the late 1950s. Over that time, she had lost her Irish language skills, while her brother had never learned English. So a cousin had to translate for them. I was able to find and reconnect with my Irish family, and for my parents 50th wedding anniversary in 2015, we went over and met up with some, and then some more in a few following years. Two of these were fellows who were excellent in both Irish and English and because of this were able to do well in their civil service careers in Dublin, and both are now retired. I want to learn Irish, but worry about my ability to learn it, because languages are much easier to learn when you are young (especially before puberty).

We just returned from Ireland, and the Irish language seemed far from "non-existent" to us. English may dominate, but we covered a lot of ground and everywhere we went, on the buses, in parks, at the college or in restaurants, someone was speaking Irish. It was a wonderful sound. The bilingual signage helps to reinforce it as the true native language of the country. I intend to learn it at least on some level, to honour both my family heritage and current efforts towards revitalization.

0:42 "well... basically, the British." 80% of Irish history in just four words.

I'm not Irish, but it would be a real shame for this language to die out. Only the Irish people can prevent this from happening. Stay strong 🇵🇹🇵🇹

I love that you are so passionate about your language. I wanted to learn Gaelig for a long time. Greetings from Serbia.

I am from Eastern Europe and I have no blood relationship with Ireland in any way but I think it has such a cool history and culture so I want to learn the language!

I am Australian and my Irish ancestors came here in the 1840s. They spoke Irish fluently and even my grandmother used to speak it a fair bit, they just refused to let go of it. She had alzheimers now and any hope of her teaching me (i’m 20) seem lost, so i’ve come here. Hopefully i will learn it and be able to teach my children when i have them, too.

Im german and i dont plan to learn irish but instead of doing my homework i follow the roots of the holy youtube algorithm

I'm only of Irish descent, but I'm overjoyed to have found your channel.

i looooove it nice i lived for 15 years in ireland all over the place and actually never bother with it but recently i start to homesicking ireland and missing a lot so i start to learn irish you great thank you with love from russia

Its so satisfying to see young people trying to keep alive their languages. Good job! Im still struggling learning english just because its the "international" language bah! Every country should promote learning and using their original languages tbh subscribing cause Gaelig always has been on my language's wish list to learn someday

I'm from Ohio in the USA. My family has an Irish/Scottish heritage, my wife and I went on our honeymoon in Ireland. I really would love to learn Irish, and am glad to have discovered this channel. Thanks!

Hello, I'm Irish descended American wanting to connect with my ancestry in what ways I can. Thank you for doing your part to preserve our shared heritage :)

So cool my grandpa is from county Sligo. He's passed now and I'm all the way Californian dude . But like you my heart yearns for Ireland I guess because it's blood runs thru me 24/7 . I feel like I've lived in a time passed there and it was wonderful and beautiful and I was happy there for so many days. A far cry from living here in California my whole life. Or I could just be crazy. But I don't think so. I have dreams that are so vivid . But really I just wanted to say thank you. Your easy on the ears . You have a beautiful voice and just a beautiful way of being. From my heart to yours. Keep up the good deed.

The last time I heard Gaelic spoken fluidly was from my Great Uncle in Pollagh, Newtowncashel. When I was but a wee bairn. Sat in the cottage in front of him next to the peat fire as he told me tales of Irish folklore and Legend, sadly did not understand a word of it. My Auntie told me bits of what old Pat was saying. Beautiful lyrical language I will never forget.

im half irish but i grew up in england, and so ive been trying my best to teach myself the language so i can connect more with my family and heritage. Thank you for making these videos, they are a great help!

Here's text for subtitle: Dia duit, agus fáilte do Gaeilge i mo chroi. You are probable wondering what I just said, but don’t worry, we will get back to that in a second. So as most of you probably know, if you are Irish or you are living in Ireland or you visited Ireland, That the use of the Irish language is pretty much non-existent. We see Irish on signposts. We hear it on public transport. Sometimes you get the Irish translation of places that aren’t even in Irish. For example, next station, copper and Kate’s Rinella. Copper, I really don’t see the point of that. And of course Irish is spoken in the Gaeltacht. Gaeltacht just means Irish speaking area. If you’re wondering why Irish people don’t speak irish anymore, Well, basically, the British. So the reason I’ve started this channel is because I have No.1 I have a passion for learning the irish language. No.2 I have met many people that have grown up in Ireland, But they had hearned Irish at school can’t really remember a lot of it, Or they never got the chance to learn Irish and they would love to speak it. In the words of Patrick Pearse: ”Tir gan teanga, tir gan anam.” Just as a disclaimer I was from Donegal, So I learned Alstive Irish So in Ireland there are a few different dialects of Irish, But I think it’s okay just for basic conversational Irish, like some my pronunciations will be different to people who speak Irish in Dublin or Galway. Anyway, let’s learn Irish. So when I started this video I said “Dia duit” “Dia duit” is how we say “hello” in Irish. So you’re probably thinking that sounds like two words. Well because it is. “Dia” means “God” And “duit” means, In this context it means with you. Dia duit is kind of like “God be with you” Or “God be over you”. And the reason for the religious aspect of that is because Ireland was always a very religious country. We did start off as pagans, But then when Catholicism came in, It became a very religious country. So that influenced our language in some ways. So you’ve learned your first word in Irish. A lot of you might have already known that if you are Irish. So “Dia duit” means “hello”. You don’t say “Dia duit” back. You say “Dia is Muire duit”. Going slower that is “Dia is Muire duit”. And that means “God and Mary be with you”. I think it’s quite nice. I don’t know there’s just something nice about like An old tradition like that my language. Conas atá tú. There’s a few variations I was brought up. I’m using “conas atá tú” That’s what I would say But they’re widely recognised in Ireland With different ways to say it So it doesn’t matter what part of the country you’re from If you say “conas atá tú”, people who speak Irish will understand you. Tá mé go maith. In most cases in Irish, when you want to start a sentence with “I am”, you would say “tá mé”. But that can change depending on the context of the situation. “Tá mé go hiontach”, which literally means “I’m wonderful”, “I’m in tastic”, “I’m great”. And then if you want to say “I’m not good”, You would say “Níl mé go maith” You want to say “awful” - “Úafasach”. So that a kind of difficult Úafasach So those are a few of the basic ways that you can respond `to “how are you”. We’ll get more into detail of How you can describe how you’re feeling. I’m moving on then to a few basic phrases. So you had say hello, then I said a little back. Say how are you, and you response of that. It’s three words. You say “le do thoill” Say thank you, you use four words “go raibh maith agat” So at the start of this video I said, Remember “Dia duit”, and “fáilte romhat Gaeilge mo chroí” “Fáilte romhat” is welcome to, But if you’re gonna say to somebody you’re welcome, Like somebody say “go raibh maith agat”, And you want to say “you’re welcome”, You would say “tá fáilte romhat”. My last llittle phrase I’m going to teach you is How to say goodbye. You can use one word just say “Slán”, Or two words “Slán leat” The last thing I have to explain is what is my channel called. So, my channel is called “Gaeilge I mo Chroí”. And what does that mean? That mean Irish in my heart. “Gaeilge” is “Irish”, “i” is “in”, “mo” “my”, “chroí” “heart”. The reason why I’ve called my channel that is Because I feel like sort of I speak English, And that’s the language I was grown up with. But any time I speak Irish, I feel like it’s something like in here, Like it’s something close to my heart. I love the language, I feel very confident when I’m speaking it. It jsut feels right, and I want you to feel the same way. So if you’ve enjoyed this video, And you would like to learn more about how to hold a comversation, we’ve done the basics how to starting a conversation. I’m going to be covering all of it in videos on this channel. So if you have any suggestions about Irish that you’d like to learn, Please leave the comment below, and I’ll try my best. In the meantime, head over to my Instagram and give it a follow, I’ll be posting daily with little Irihs phrases and sayings, Because I truly believe that if you’re learning a language, Then you need to be learning it every day, Speaking it a little bit every day, Or learning something new consistency is a key, When you’re learning a language. Thank you so much for watching. Agus, slán leat.

I am catalan. You reclaimed your independence yet lost your tongue, we on the contrary are still crushed under castillian boot but keep fighting for the soul of our nation, our language, even when millions of castillians migrated here to dilute our identity (doubling our population). What you are doing is worth GOLD; be sure all your not present family will bless you from heaven. Finding this channel made my day a bit better and I will learn a bit of Gaeilge for sure :)

Recently found out one of my first ancestors to come to America was an Irish man who was an indentured servant for 7 years. I really want to get in touch with that side of my heritage

Oh my gosh, my son wanted to hear Irish Gaelic spoken instead of sang. I am so glad you have put this out here. And that you say things on the repeat a wee bit slower. I am basically retraining my brain to hear properly and re-learning the Irish language. At one time I was fluent but seizure disorder kind of mess with that. English is my first language, are used to be fluent in Irish and Scottish Gaelic. So I’m trying to relearn them now. Your channel is amazing thank you so very much for doing this. This was just the resource that I needed. I am legally blind so books are no help. I have hearing loss, so when you say it slower in is helping me to make sure that I’ve heard consonants correctly. Thank you thank you thank you. I know I keep saying it but thank you.

im iranian my native language is farsi and im in loooooove with irish language.such a beautiful language

My grandparents used to speak the old tongue but my mother didn't care to teach me any. I will be watching to learn whatever I can.

I was today years old when I learned Irish is a stand alone language! Beautiful, keep at it and keep you ancestor’s soul alive!

I grew up listening to Irish music, hearing and reading stories and myths from Ireland but was never able to learn the language even though it's my heritage, and learning it's basically a dead language was super sad, so I'm hyped about you doing this and hope to become fluent one day!

My grandfather effectively stopped the use of Irish in our family when he raised my father and aunts in English, my father despised the language in school and thus never taught me (I was born in Germany so learning it in school was never an option). I’d love to be able to speak the language my great grandfather went to such great lengths to preserve (ironic considering what my grandad and dad did then lol), all the better then that you speak Ulster Irish since my grandfather, the last native speaker in my family, is from Monaghan!

Yea my heritage is from Ireland and I'm trying to get into my Irish side

I'm a Brazilian and I find you guys' culture, history, everything fascinanting. ☘️

Thank you so much. I am currently using Duolingo which is okay. I am Canadian. My grandfather was from Fermanagh. We never met but I love the language. The grammar however is really difficult for me. I will keep trying. I look forward to your next video.

I like how your sweater exactly matches your eyes!

In 2014 I did a solo trip to Ireland as I drove around Cty.Clare I notice the street signs in Gaelic I thought this was great I knew the Irish spoke a Native Language and I though not Irish would like to see this heritage continue on , I'll never forget my time here or the people who were so kind to me. Ireland Forever.

I'm an Englishman who has moved to Kerry, while not many speak Irish around me ill be using Irish Please, thank yous, hellos casually as i learn the language. Such a beautiful and ancient language should be preserved. Ireland is relatively untouched compared to the rest of Europe so i feel as though some of the culture here must be ancient. History is cool, and important, and some of history is stored in language, Lets not lose it.

Years ago, I spent some time in Tsaile, a Navajo town in Apache County, Arizona, desert land near Chelly Canyon. The Navajo inhabitants pronounce their town's name sail-ee, yet the similarity of its spelling to the Irish word "an tsáile," denoting a salt water area, or sea, is obvious. The town of Tsaile hosts the main campus of Diné College. Diné is the Navajo language name for "the people," the Navajo people, and when they would say the word, it sounded to me like the Irish word "daoine," also meaning "people." Curious! Maybe just coincidences, but the words can stir imaginings of ancient history. Yes, we must safeguard the languages, the vehicles of culture and cultural memory, and learn from them.

First, I would like to thank you for caring enough to teach people, Gaelic, Irish. I’ve been to Ireland four times in my life. My mothers people are all from Ireland. The last time it was in Ireland for a reading of the will for a great end I’ve gotten a couple books on how to speak Gaelic Irish when I was there, but they’re not as good I like the way that you’re breaking it down showing is the spelling and pronunciation marvelous. You’re brilliant thank you for that. Sincerely, Robert Wallen Gonzales

From a Brit who has fallen in love with the Irish language, please keep this going. Hearing how some Native American and Chinese dialects are dying out it's important that this doesn't become a dead language.

Dia duit, Molly. Gaeilge i mo chroí... I'm Ukrainian who grew up in a Russian-speaking environment, so I guess I know the feeling you've mentioned and I understand why you gave the channel this name. I'm subscribing.

I love that. "Weeeellllll, the British"

That is a beautiful name for your channel. I want to learn Irish, and thank you for having this channel. 💚

As a linguistics graduate who has Irish and Scottish ancestry, I really really admire what you are doing.

I'm Serbian but I spent my entire childhood in Ireland and went to school there, this is making me nostalgic

Hello, I am a Spanish guy who moved into Ireland son months ago. I am keen to learn Irish I think we should keep this language alive. I already can say: Éire i mo chroí

Watching in Arizona 🌵🤠. I love hearing the Ulster dialect. Most Irish language videos seem to feature Connemara. Represent the north! ☘☘☘

I just came across your channel I speak English obviously, but my heritage is largely Irish so I am interested in learning Gaelic, also I like that you take the time to break the word down so I can learn the dialect correctly as possible ❤

my wife and I are French, been living in Ireland for more than 15, our little one will join an Irish speaking school and we don't want to leave her on her own, so we 'll try to follow it too !

After years of loving Ireland, I finally decided to give it a go and learn Irish. Thank you for your channel! Let's see how it goes!

I am currently learning Irish, I love the sounds and the people. Slainte

Good on you!! I'm Birmingham born, Irish father. Anyway in 1988 I took up Irish classes in our Irish centre. Stuck at it for 2 years. Not week in week out Anyway found myself in a pub 4 years later, working actually, whilst collecting the last few glasses, I overheard somebody talking in a strong Donegal accent( it turns out) I out of nowhere said something in Irish, wud you believe me if I told you I carried on talking in Irish for another 10mins!! Possibly longer! I surprised myself and that Irish man!!!

Dia dhuit ar maidin! Thank you so much 🙏 I’m third generation in America but I have always felt the connection to Ireland. I believe in the decolonization of the planet. I am learning this language and teaching my children and it feels like the key to something that was missing. Even though I didn’t grow up in Ireland I’ve visited, I know sometimes Americans can be cringey but really from the bottom of my heart thank you. We come from Fitzgerald’s and Downs from Sligo and Leitrim.

Of all my nationalities , I feel most connected to the Irish side. I am excited to learn to speak Irish. Thank you for this opportunity.

I’m Irish and I don’t know much about my culture, so thank you!

Wow bless you hope you teach many to re-learn Irish!

One tip to encourage speaking Gaeilge/Irish is to start with the words/expressions ppl already use, like 'So long' which derives from the Irish word 'SLÁN' (sounds like slawn) that ppl might remember from 'The Sound Of Music' 🗣🎶"So long, farewell, Auf Wiedersehen, goodbye..." Another, an Americanism, 'Assole' which derives from the Irish word 'ASAL' for an Ass or Donkey.

I would love to learn Irish ☘️

I love the intensity of the close-up when she said, "The British." :) There were like, 4000 years of history rolled up in just those two words. I'm African American, and yeah, I get it.

I really appreciate your approach which is effective. I'm a two time graduate of the Defense Language Institute in Monterey for other languages which was yadda yadda yadda defense stuff, but your steady approach with Gaelic is awesome. I am following you as my primary teacher.

I'm sure I am one of many Irish Americans who will become attached to this channel.

Lovely Channel ! Keep going, please. ❤ I hope you can draw people your age into appreciating and embracing your culture. I was in Ireland for the first time last March (2023). It is my new "most-favoritest" country. You have so much culture and traditions and music and lovely pubs and breathtaking landscapes and sociality. 👍👍👍

Thank you for sharing your knowledge and love for Irish!! The teaching is easy to follow and in depth, unlike some Irish learning resources. Thank you for allowing others to learn from you 💚🤍🧡

I love the fact that you have such a passion for the Irish language. I watch your videos to learn how to speak Irish, unfortunately beyond watching your videos i don't get enough practice speaking it. I believe the only way to learn a language is to emerse yourself in it. If you can't find people in Ireland who speak Irish think about how much more difficult it is to find people here in the United States who speak it.

I 1000% understand about feeling Irish in your heart! I’m 75% Irish, I have a huge Irish family both in Ireland and in England. I was born in England and grew up here, but something has always strongly pulled me to Ireland, I feel more Irish than I do English. So after realising I can be a citizen through family and getting my passport etc etc I’m starting to fully dive into my Irish side and I’ve never felt more connected to myself before! So here I am, trying to learn Irish, even though hardly anyone speaks it anymore. Don’t care, still learning it :)

thank you for this :D ive wanted to learn irish for years and years, mostly because i grew up in Ireland and my hole family is Irish, the only person that i know of in my family that could speak Irish was my Great granny {Grace Cleary} she grew up in Galway but she died before i was born ;-; , and i grew up in Omaigh in Tyrone so rlly it was because of the hole 800+ year war with Ireland and britan i wasn't allowed to learn it, ive always felt free when speaking my native language and i never rlly learnt how to pronounce it, because i learnt from books, so thanks alot this was Brilliant!!!

As a Maori with Irish background this is super cool!!!! I hope the Gaelic language has a huge come back, like what im seeing with Maori today! Aroha from Aotearoa, kia kaha!

I’m not from Ireland but I luv these ppl Yalla let's start learning

At the end saying Irish in my heart it brought me to tears I have never felt connected to a culture I could call mine and you gave this spark back for me thank you

I think someone in my family just spoke a bit of Gaelic for the first time in at least 200 years. I am in Newfoundland. If you look you will see we are the first stop, just across the big big bay there from Ireland itself. Though the English were in charge of course......I have always thought of this place as the land God gave to the starving Irish. Another Island to spread out on. We came here to this little town and have been hanging around here ever since. This island is still VERY VERY Irish. I think you might be shocked if you came here. So thank you for connecting me with my past and my grandmothers and grandfathers. God Bless.

I am from Germany and I lovveee Irish language and Irish culture! I am learning Irish currently!

My great great grandfather was sean O'Neill and I was born in south africa with the same surname and im proud. To br O'Neill

I'm learning Irish on duolingo and actually hearing the words pronounced is SO much better

So cool!! You’re doing wonders for reviving the language. People like you are going to bring the language back!! So happy for this channel!!

Fascinating, as a welsh man I was looking for similarities, but so far it’s totally different!

Duit so many connotations. from happy birthday to god with you to tatement endings for no reason. I love this word. My Doctor and I speak Irish he's connacht but some tmes against my Ulster dialect can make it hard but fun too. so we speak Con-ulster in the end lol

Your lessons are very useful and quick tidbits of knowledge. I like how you write out how it should be pronounced, the use of subtitles, and I really like the literal translation videos you do. Thank you again

The best way to avoid conflict and war is to communicate. And the best way for this is if you can speak many languages. It took me 27 years to realize that so any young bucks reading this mark my words. You don't have to be able to speak fluid or write in every language you try to learn. it is more important in live if you an ask for help or ask for direction in many languages. But if you are like me and you only can learn something if you are interested in the hole package that is also fine. I am a german with turkish roots and I learned English in school and by translating songs from English in german and watching English movies with German subtitles. The last two ways are also the best way to lern a language. Because if you are interested in something you lern it much faster. I hopefully will never stop learning. And you shouldn't either. That is the best investment you can ever make. By the way math and the Natural scienceis are without doubt the most important languages of it all. Everyone on the world knows can understand when I write 27+97. If you are good in math or the Natural sciences you can work live and use it anywhere you want. The lesson: Do what you love and become a master of it.

Beautiful language culture and people Blessings

Wonderful! Charming and articulate young woman with an obvious knowledge and passion for her subject! Perhaps if I listen and practice enough I’ll be able to talk with some of my cousins in Ireland! ❤️

Dia duit! Thank you for establishing a KZfaq channel to learn Irish language. I am very excited to learn this beautiful language, considering that I have a lot of interest listening and sing along to the Irish traditional songs since 10 years ago.

My dad was Irish, and he passed away a few years ago so I'm trying to learn it

Dia daoibh 🥰 tacaigí liom ar PATREON agus gheobhaidh sibh: -rochtain luath -fotheidil as Gaeilge -grúpa príobháideach Facebook -deiseanna labhairt as Gaeilge le daoine eile patreon.com/gaeilgeimochroi?Link& EN: support me on Patreon and you will get: - early access - subtitles in Irish - a private Facebook group - opportunities to speak Irish with other people

I've been working on it for a year though Duolingo, which is robotic, these videos are very helpful.

I'm 55 and American, and Scots/Irish, and I'm the 7th of 9 children, of the same father and mother and of course we're all Catholic, or were raised that way. I grew up in a very Irish-American family and I want to learn how to speak Irish, too. Your channel is fabulous. I have subscribed and I will keep coming back to learn more.

Thank you for doing this basic explainer. I just recently visited Ireland and I found the Irish language to be absolutely beautiful and I am interested in learning more about it.

Basically the British lol fair enough.

I'm from Hong kong(which is in asia) and im trying to learn gaelic >< thankyou for this video, it helps a lot！

Kind of cool to know that hello is "god be with you", which is like... a super intense hello. My extended family was always super religious, and their parents were from Ireland, so it explains that.

Native (Scots) Gaelic speaker, from an island with a Gaelic probably closer to yours than any other, in the Gaidhealtachd of Scotland. Loving your channel, and finding it wonderful how similar - how very close - our languages are. Gum beannaicheadh ​​an Tighearna math thu agus gun glèidh e thu sàbhailte, an-còmhnaidh. Barrachd cumhachd dhut!

Día duit from Portugal

Down south Ireland we pronounce dhuit or dh as a g!

I'm American, my grandfather was the son of Irish farmers and my father's family was Irish/Scottish. I never had any form of sense of my heritage growing up. I went to Catholic school and later disavowed it due to personal reasons. That being said I later became pagan and wanted to know as much about my Irish/Scottish/Celtic heritage. I'm not going to get into the England and Catholicism aspect of ireland because in all honesty it upsets me. I keep to traditions using the wheel of the year, I'll celebrate other holidays but merely as a means to an end and if it makes them happy so be it. Anyway, rant over. I actually just started learning Irish a couple days ago and it makes me happy to speak it and I feel comfortable speaking it. I appreciate this video because of your passion for the Irish language and also for teaching me new phrases.

A hundred years ago (actually 1992. Ha ha), I took some Scottish language lessons in Seattle. I took to it very quickly and apparently the teacher thought I was from Scotland! He was very surprised when I told him I was from the suburbs of D.C. in the U.S. I couldn't afford many of those lessons and I am a stubborn fourth generation Irish woman...so, many years later I began an attempt to learn Irish on my own. This was before the internet was big and KZfaq was many, many years away. I was taught how to say my name in Irish and how to say "I am wonderful". That was about as far as I got! 🤣 Anyway, here I am, a broken down old 53 year old, trying once more to learn the beautiful but aggravating language of my mother's people.

I'm trying to learn a little irish as I plan to study in galway, where I have many relatives who speak the language. Thanks for making the video!
