Thank you so much for making this video. I am Irish and have been making an effort to learn the language for real this time, and I'm 30 years old, living in Mexico and trying to make up for lost time. Tugann tú inspioráid dom. Go raibh míle maith agat.
You, Molly, and Bitesize Gaelic are triple-handedly turning this sixth generation irish-american into a real and true irishman. I have decent proficiency over arabic (4 years in college) and Im finding what I learned there (phonetically/muscularly) very transferable. Spiritually though (Im not a religious man at all, was not raised with any association) learning Gaeilge is like a whole other thing. I feel like Im opening up centuries, millennia even, of my own history. When you learn the language your ancestors spoke for thousands of years, it puts into context the rather recent development that is their transitition/migration to English/theUSA (in my case). But not only does learning this language allow me to connect to my past, it is a window into the gaeilge-renessaince in art and culture in the present, and it feels good to be a part of that project which has global potential. I know this is all in english and I cant say much in Gaeilge at the moment, but my promise to you is if you keep putting out such useful content as this, a year from now Ill be able to give you an update in Gaeilge, and you can see your work firsthand. Go n-eiri an bothar leat, maith an fear, Dane! Agus go raibh maith agat.
Bitesize Irish Gaelic* (Bitesize Irish is the name of the youtube channel) Just wanted to give the right plug for anyone interested! These phrases are great!
i love these videos. I am learning scottish gaelic in nova scotia and its nice to see similarities with irish. Wish there was someone doing vids like this for scottish gaelic maybe ill just have to learn irish insteadd :)
Dia dhuit Dane! Wow that's really really great! I've never seen a better video! I'm really impressed coz I learned a lot of useful and new vocabulary! Táim an-tógtha mar d'fhoghlaim mé a lán stór focal úsáideach nua! Go raibh maith agat agus slán go fóill!
Dia dhuit Dane! That's a really very useful video,you thought a whole "bunch" of new and useful phrases! YOU ARE THE BEST! TÁ TÚ AN CEANN IS FEARR! Míle buíochas agus slán tamall!
Love all your videos and have signed up on Patreon. Would really love some PDFs though as I am trying to type some of the phrases up to revisit and memorise.
You are doing a great job. However, I think one of the problems with popularity of Irish is lack of entertaining content, pop- or mass-culture, like stories, interesting materials in Irish (not necessarily about the language), audiobooks etc. I'm not from Ireland but I have a question for all Irish people - why there's tenfold more content in Icelandic, both authentic and translated from other languages, than in all Irish dialects combined (ok, the only alternative for Iceland is Danish and not English). Nonetheless...
Before all this covid 19 stuff there were plenty of pop up Gaeltachtaí in pubs and other places around the country. But if you are referring to TH-cam then that is a thought provoking question.
It’s on the rise tbf there’s a few podcasts as Gaeilge and there are loads of new books being written in Irish too. There was also recently an Irish language film nominated for an Oscar and there is apparently going to be a continuous effort to try make Irish language films more mainstream in the country and worldwide. And the rap group Kneecap from Belfast are showing the potential of the language in music and they’re unreal too

@@LearnIrish Of course you are great!👍
Is tusa mo réalta eolais. Because you are my source of Irish information. Go raibh maith agat.

This is the first time I looked up Irish and I don’t know what I expected but not this fairy language, non the less I love it.
Learn something new every day! Slán go fóill.
Thank You so much for the very nice video! I appreciate it! You are the best!
That's why they call me the Great Dane!

Nice video, I'll be adding these to my anki deck! Do you upload any pdfs to accompany your videos?
Not really nó but that's an interesting idea.
@@LearnIrish I've seen other language teachers on TH-cam offer pdfs as a patreon perk, I'd definitely sign up for patreon if you had them!
It will a worthwhile idea, thank you for your suggestion.
Nice Video
Nice comment.
Thank you.
How would you say good woman / good girl?
You could say maith an bhean for good woman or maith an cailín for good girl
Físeán an-chabhrach 😁
Molly! Míle buíochas agus bíodh lá deas agat, tá tú ar fheabhas 🙂
B'fhéidir gur féidir leat ceacht a dhéanamh le haicinn Chonnacht nó Uladh.
Bhféidir lá amháin tá súil agam 🙂

I’m from Ulster and we don’t pronounce half those words like you do lol.
No surprise there, an English speaker from Texas and Edinburgh would probably say the same about English.

Im Irish and i dont even know how to speak Irish *₩*
That's not really surprising, most Irish people like you either don't care or are too embarrassed to care. Kind of pathetic in a way
iontach ar fad
Míle buíochas
