I just stumbled in here out of idle curiosity from a link in the "Irish" section of the Duolingo Forums. Turns out my late Grandmother was born and raised on an island only about 10 miles away from this one called Mason Island (Oileán Máisean), just off the town of Carna, now uninhabited. She emigrated to the States in 1919. I remember her speaking Gaelic with her friend "Mary Fitz", also from the island. So, it's interesting to hear just that sort of Irish being spoken, even if I cannot understand even a word. Sadly, I never picked up any at all.
I’m a cockney boy from London Islington.My family are from Connemara.please don’t let the tourists know about the most beautiful place in the world ( in the summer) .Good luck to the Irish people all over the world 🇮🇪that’s me cousin behind the bar in plunkets.joe Higgins a great man from a great family .
I can understand quite a bit of what those people are saying but I have only a few words on the Connemara Irish myself, The people who speak this language have the most poetic ways of talking, great expressions, most people talk like they are reading from a rare master book of the greatest poems ever written
My grandmother and John Bhabín were brother & sister! John William was their first cousins. Their fathers were brothers Martín & William Seoige!! So I would say we are related

We must be related and least distance cousins,

Is fíor dhuit!
Nach trua an scéal é go bhfuil an saol sin uile imithe anois bail ó Dia orthu siúd atá imithe.
Sea is trua. Thréig an Rialtas na n-iascairí agus na pobail a chothaíodar
This is my relative! And my great-uncle wrote the song. Thanks so much for posting!
It's likely we're somehow related. My grandmother came to the States in 1919 from Mason Island, just off Carna, only about 10 miles away.
