Do you do lessons ?
Also I’d love if you did a video on dog comands in Irish things like come stay heel, leave it , wait, focus,, look, place, crate or den, car, let’s go, go for a walk car ride hike, play, go pee go poo and more obscure ones like siieek, drop it, around , under, over, wall, jump, hold, pick up, get it, paws up ethe ct (I’m just listing the commands we have used with our dogs I can think of off the top of my head
Go raibh mile maith agat a Dane! Love the T-shirt. I’m a Yank here. I enjoyed learning again the comparative and superlative forms of good. I also knew Ba mhaith liom forms of a sentence. But now I can practice b'fhearr liom.
As I always say, knowledge is power and information is knowledge first and foremost. I love America and I've an incredible grá for my Irish American brothers and sisters 🇺🇸🍀
What a blessing to run into this! ☘️💚
An rud is annamh is iontach 😀
An bhfuil tú ag foghlaim na Gaeilge na laethanta seo, a Bhrian? Nach iontach an rud é tú a fheiceáil anseo!
Wow Dane, driving tests and the Irish language??? A jack of all trades!
So Barry you are one of the few people who crossover between my 2 TH-cam channels 😅 is breá liom Gaeilge! Good for the soul and whenever I hear anyone making fun of Irish it just gives me such motivation to keep making more videos. Bring it on.
Thank you for another great and useful video Dane!
Nice to hear that you found it useful 🙏
Just found this channel. Cheers for this! Always nice to find another useful site in learning Irish (not as easy to find as the Spanish ones - lol!)
Glad to be able to point you in the right direction, bain sult as!
Great video as usual, I was wondering if you could do some other videos on other prepositions as I often find that it's hard to tell which to use.
Have a look at this,

Great tips !!!
Good luck with them Patrick 🍀
Can you explain/examples of sentences in Irish where "used to" is used, I.e. We used to go to that school; we used to live in Limerick.
Thanks Dane

A Dhane, a chara, Go raibh maith agat as an bhfíseán. Seo mar ag fhoghlaim Gaeilge níos fearr. Tá sé deacair dom, níl mo chuid Béarla chomh maith. Lá maith agat. ☘
Déan do dhícheall agus bain sult as 😊
@@LearnIrish Déanfaidh mé sin💪🏻🍀
I really enjoy your videos and they are very helpful in learning Irish. I found the latest “Irish Made Easy” especially helpful. I was wondering if you could direct me, or possible add this feature to your program. I find most Irish programs focusing on speaking, rather than listening and reading. And yours in my favorite for learning phrases and words for speaking.
I’m also learning Spanish and have three programs that focus mainly on listening and speaking. I have been able to acquire the Spanish language with great speed using three programs that offer a lot of listening and reading in a comprehensible way. You can see what I’m talking about by searching TH-cam for “Dreaming Spanish” and the other one is “Español Con Juan”. They focus more on listening versus speaking and they are done in a way that is comprehensible.
The other program is LingQ by Steve Kaufman. It’s a pretty elaborate program and includes multiple languages but sadly not Irish. He does mention adding other languages but needs fluent speakers to work with his organization. I don’t know what it entails but if you’re interested maybe you could check it out. It’s a great resource for learning languages. Again, I really enjoy your program and the ideas I aforementioned would be a complement to your program. Thanks again for helping us learn the Irish language.
I really appreciate your comment, thank you for sharing your thoughts and experience and I'll look into your suggestions. Sounds very interesting.
I am here in the United States and have been teaching my Gailge with your videos. The problem is I can't find groups of people who practice speaking. I think the best way to learn a language is by way of emersion, but with so few people speaking the language that is difficult to do. Any suggesions.
Try Google or Irish cultural centres, there might be some Facebook groups that could help you depending on where you are.
can you make a video about how to say "i need" and "i want"?? they always confuse me.

Go raibh maith agat!! Brilliant lesson !
Thanks very much
How would you as “do you want t go for” and things like a hike a walks? Ect
👍

Grma as do físeán Dane! Mo ghaeilge would improve so much if I didn't have the fear of saying things wrong. I always want to speak with my kids teachers as Gaeilge (they're in a Gaelscoil so perfect opportunity) but I stop myself out of fear of sounding silly. I know they wouldn't laugh at me but Im all in my head about it. Any suggestions?
You should just focus on a few specific phrases and get confident with them, use that as a springboard. Honestly just do your best and use what you can.
@@LearnIrish míle buíochas dane 🇮🇪
Fan slán
@@LearnIrish what does that mean in English
It just means stay safe, fan is stay or wait and slán is safe
For the people saying that this needs to be taught in schools .....your not in school are you? School doesn't teach you the beauty of a language it teaches you how to answer basic questions and doesn't bother to help students who haven't learnt the language they're entire life irish should be optional for me I went to a Northern school except for the last 2 years that made it so I HAD to do it in secondary school and I know the language that little the last few years of secondary school I've never gotten higher than a 50 the language needs to be made optional
I agree with you, the Irish language should be optional for the last 2 years of secondary school, that way you can cut out the messers and just focus on the people who want to learn more about their native language.
@@LearnIrish I disagree Dane. We should take a leaf out of the Israeli and South African books and print everything bilingually with more prominence given to Gaeilge i.e. slightly bigger letters and a little bolder in print particularly on all PACKAGING and wrapped goods. This is one of many steps that should be taken with the ultimate goal of a national language and because of the importance of english this should be a SECOND language. This is a step by step process. We *Irish* must be proud of our heritage and promote it all the time.
Your method in *Learning Irish* is to be complemented, the words easy and simple come to mind when I view your podcasts. On the subject of Gaeilge in schools, it must be compulsory throughout the schooling years. Unfortunately we as humans must be nudged in this direction.
I hope you continue with your excellent work on you tube,
Thanks for sharing your thoughts and opinions, if Irish could be made more of a living language in everyday life then that would be great.
The most beautiful sounding language in the world, it's a tragedy and very sad that we have abandoned our native language for an invading language. When I was going to school over 30 years ago it was barely taught in national and secondary schools, I think It should be compulsory in all schools around Ireland and not just in the Gaeltacht area's.
It is compulsory in all schools up to when students finish but that doesn't mean it's working as a way to cherish and spread it.
It should be the only language taught in nursery/primary education at least
I love your optimism!
Good morning James i totally agree with you. It's a total shame. People can be very ignorant when it comes to learning there language. Risteard.
Happy St Patrick's day to everyone. Richie from Ireland.
Dia duit,Dane!, Jab maith i ndáiríre !
Go raibh míle maith agat
Míle fáilte, measaim go bhfuil sé áisiúil!
Galore from Irish? Enough? Plenty?
That's correct 👌
GRMMA Dane. Ar fheabhas. Is maith liom a beith abalta na rudaí a ra i mbealach difriúil.
De réir a chéile a thógtar na caisleáin, beannachtaí 😊
Físeán ar dóigh a Dane 😁 smaoineamh maith! Maith thú 😉 (nath eile ag baint úsáide as ‘maith’)
An-cruthaitheach a chara agus míle buíochas 😃
Ó is mian liom a bheith 28 ní 78@@LearnIrish

Go raibh maith agat ! Minionn an fisean seo dul chun cinn do cheachtanna!

@@LearnIrish Díreach! Tá tú go hiomlán ceart!
I ndáiríre ar fheabhas,
Táim fíorbhuíoch díot.
Shameful that excatley 100 years ago the irish fought for independence, from the limeys, and the country still refuses to speak it native language.
It's just that people don't care enough, thats what it all comes down to, but me and you do care it seems.
I find your pronunciation incomprehensible as I learned Ulster Irish. Perhaps you might clarify that there are a variety of dialects in the Irish language. Ulster Irish is closer to Scottish Gaelic than it is to the Irish spoken in say Dublin or Kerry. Inevitably a result of the Plantation of Ulster and before and after that, due to the continual migration of people to and fro from the northern part of Ireland and Scotland over many centuries. When I lived in Scotland, I found Scottish Gaelic easy to understand. It just sounded to me like Ulster Irish after too much whiskey. Whereas, I find newsreaders on RTE hard to fathom. They sound good but it ain’t the Irish I understand.
If you find my pronunciation incomprehensible then you probably have a lot to learn. Ulster Irish is the same as Connacht and Munster, it's all the same language with dialects of course, and by trying to suggest that Ulster Irish is closer to Scottish Gàidhlig you are, let's say, a little misguided to be polite.
@@LearnIrish I'm not saying Ulster Irish is a different LANGUAGE from Irish spoken elsewhere in Ireland. Merely that Ulster Irish in its pronunciation is extremely close to Scottish Gallic. Thus making Scottish Gallic very easy for someone like moi, an Ulster Irish scholar, to comprehend. Jtc surely you know that even the forms of English spoken in the northern part of Ireland are heavily affected by the Scottish language Ulster Irish middle English etc etc depending upon colonisation and migration flows. Unless of course you think I'm speaking double Dutch which is most likely the case.
I'm sure you're not entirely wrong, no doubt the movement of people has had an impact in both regional area - Scotland and the North of Ireland.
@@LearnIrish careful now. Me not being ‘entirely wrong’, jaysus, might that mean I might be right? Even a teeny weensy bit right? Movements of peoples globally have affected and are affecting language forms. Always has been, forever and ever. I was just trying to talk about the specificity of a part of ireland. Another tangent relating to this discussion is the case for example that Irish people who migrated to particularly remote parts of Canada after many generations have retained Irish accents, due to a lack of influx of others to remote areas. I have a professor buddy who has written about this.
Yes that's right I've always been fascinated by the Irish accents in Newfoundland other parts of East Canada, a great story.
Is cinnte go bhfuil mé ag feabhsú.
