When you say you speak a language, and people think you’re fluent in it..
You don't really speak the language then, do you. Knowing a couple of phrases doesn't count.
Best thing is- people pretend to be foreign national and then the translator arrives 😂😂
@@EllaKarhu Yeah but it's hard when you're in a in between I speak a good bit of Russian and I'm able to get round just fine with it, but I wouldnt say I'm fluent or close.
Miikka Karhu there’s something in-between you know. Besides I’m never going to say I’m fluent in a language because really, I consider that something that only be achieved by mother tongue speakers. I’d say I speak French well but I also speak Italian on a conversational level. I still make a lot of mistakes but the locals understand me and I understand them. But I don’t speak Italian then according to you?
Miikka Karhu You can speak a language without being fluent. I speak Spanish and can converse pretty well but Iʻm not fluent by any stretch of the imagination

reminds me of a story i got told in ireland: there was a succsessful barkeeper in america leading an irishpub always bragging about him being such an irishman and fully knowing gaelic. when an actual gaelic speaking guy went to his pub they started talking in gaelic. The barkeeper only knew the "our father" in gaelic though, so when he was asked a gaelic question he answered in the first rhyme of it. The irish lad quickly understood and proceeded the prayings next verse, on wich the barkeeper could answer in the next one and so on making it look like an actual conversation. the irish lad got all his drinks for free on that night and didn't tell anyone.
Barkeeper's a filthy liar
Well he's got the same level as most Irish lads.
Tis now an open secret
Lmao
Don't tell me you're one of those Americans that thinks he is Irish because you've Irish ancestors ffs

Swap Irish for French and you've got the educational system in English Canada.
M-A Kuttner, most bilinguals in Canada are from or live in the « billingual belt » those areas where English and French speakers live there so you need to speak both languages on a daily basis.
Montreal, Ottawa, New Brunswick, region of Quebec and Ontario near the borders.
Why the hell do they teach it like that?! I've always wondered.
At the beginning, it's really hard to teach a subject that people don't want to learn. A.K.A Mandatory foreign language, after that, it's just the nature of school itself that is really bad with learning languages. Because they note people on their ability to speak a foreign language and by consequences, they create losers and winners.
So competition, some losers will feel like it's impossible for them to learn a foreign language that they are dumper than Katia, let's say, but what they don't know about her is that her mother works for a federal agency and therefore her mother helps her with her homework because people in her family already speaks French, so she is in an advantage, but she will make feel other people in her class as inferior.
They will start to resent and hate their foreign language classes and just try to do the bare minimum to pass the tests, memorizing words and expressions and nothing more.
Because there is no fun or joy in that stressful and competitive environment, maybe that the students are more equipped to be good employees, but learning the foreign language in question ... Not so ...
What we should do is favoring cooperation in classes where students can learn from each other, like with Katia and her parents helping her with her homework, but in that case scenario, it would be everyone enjoying this help, even those who are not as privileged as her. So in a positive environment, people wouldn't resent learning a foreign language as much.
Because it wouldn't be linked in their mind as a painful, stressful traumatic experience, but rather as something fun, challenging and that takes time. Because learning a foreign language takes time and it's really better to enjoy the possess. For example, English is not my Native language Shcool after many many years just taught me the basics. Just being able to get by in English, now my level of English is really advance, but I needed to learn all that by myself. Obviously, it's easy with English with the availability of movies, music, books, etc...
But that's it and with time it just became more and more, easier to listen to it, to talk, to write English. But I needed to invest myself in that and to make my own immersion. I just enjoyed the process and that's it my English is getting better days by days.
Yuuup! I can't have a conversation but I can order a pizza from a clown.
Im assuming you could replace irish for welsh in some parts of Wales as well.
I like how the guy supposedly doesn't understand English but knows the guy said "lovely to meet you" 😂 great sketch
You can see he understands English from the first sentence of the interview.
Common tactical among bilingual people to try to get out of talking to others.
Pogue mahone doesn't mean 'lovely to meat you' it means something more rude.

Interesting. Some of these words were still in use in Jamaica when I was a child. Didn't know they were Irish Gaelic. I thought they were just old-fashioned English words no one uses any more. Interesting. There were other words in our vocabulary that were probably Welsh and Scottish Gaelic. Makes sense. The Jamaican flag has the cross of St. Andrew; Rastas wear tam o lyns which they call tams; Bob Marley sang about dancing the quadrille etc.

Grace Valente yesss 👌👌
Cheap assassins 😶
And before any of you come to conclusion that Irish lass is about to murder someone - kill, (or chill, because there is no "K" in Irish alphabet), means "church" in Irish, and what this idiom ("I'd kill") means, literally - "I would bless". When said by Irish, of course. Or, at least, with Irish accent.
@@moamber1 So when a criminal says in an interrogation that they killed a guy, the Garda just thinks "Aargh, we'll never get them to confess to this murder!" 😶😁
Honestly this is second-language learning in every school everywhere. We need to overhaul our language curriculums.
In my country's schools we learn three or four languages. Maybe it's just me, but I think the teaching is pretty good.
In my nation,they teach English as the second language,but things has got so bad that even though most of Vietnamese can speak English,most are at the toodler level.
So yah,u got it right.
Well, many countries do get it right. I've met people from many countries who speak three or four languages.
I went to Ireland on an exchange programme in uni and took an Irish course. I loved it but it’s really difficult and unlike any other languages I’d learnt before. I went to a Pop Up Gaeltacht event in Dublin. I couldn’t understand a thing but really enjoyed it because people there were really encouraging. Wish I could get better at it but it’s hard to find classes outside of Ireland. I tried Duolingo but I’d prefer it if I could be in class in person to talk to other people. I’ve dreamt about moving to the west of Ireland for maybe a few months to learn it.
I have an Irish (native) teacher via zoom and there are many classes. Apps do not really work for me, only as an extra. We actually used this sketch in a lesson

Oh wow, that's a sad mistake. Spend a year trying to surprise someone and then find out you can't communicate. That sucks man

As a Polish person, it's the same for us with basically any foreign language we learn other than English (usually German, French or Spanish). Though it's also the same with English for people who don't use it outside of school. So yea, learning languages at school sucks.

As an Irishman myself, I can confirm that no one I know personally other than my Irish teacher herself
The sad truth is I can speak French easier than Irish, and I only have a secondary school (middle/high combined) education in French, while I was “taught” Gaelige/Irish from age five.
Basically, we’re taught all the basics of the language in primary/elementary school, and then go on to secondary school with an “understanding” we already know the basics: which we don’t because they were “taught” to us in a very young age. And that “education” was very different and spotty for every child.
Nonetheless, the secondary school curriculum goes straight into pros and essays, and never goes back over the basics on any real depth; and for exams we are encouraged to basically learn off whole essays/paragraphs that we’ve had corrected by “Irish teachers,” (basically fake it), to pass our tests. Not to mention, the Irish school curriculum is based on the two weeks of intensive testing that you do in the end of your last school year, as opposed to a continuous average/GPA. Fun.
The saddest thing is that we only lost our language in the mid-1800s or so. And we got our independence back from Britain only a hundred years later, after eight hundred years of colonisation. We even had “bush schools” (named from the idea of literally teaching children in secret “in the bushes”) when Irish was outlawed. But yeah, the final two nails on the coffin were when speaking Irish in school was corporeally punished (kids would wear a meter stick around their neck, and any time they spoke Irish in class, the teacher would put a notch in the stick, which would count how many times that student would be hit with the stick at the end of class). And, of course, the Great Famine, when there was a potato blight that decimated the Irish peoples’ only real food source (as potato’s were abundant and could famously grow anywhere, even the sides of roads) and Great Britain refused to waste resources (that they had; they were still even _exporting_ beef from Ireland during the time, if I recall) to feed us when we ran out, eating grass in desperation being a strong visual that’s stuck with me. (Estimated 1 million died, 1 million emigrated, why Irish people are all over the globe; population only now back to where it was then in the last ten years, but of course, that means it’s much less that other countries of a comparable size cause we missed a lot of that growth time. But “at least” we can freely travel/live in Britain on Irish passports, even after brexit; they know they owe us, even if many English have forgotten, and Irish history is not taught in English schools).
But yeah: a very proud people, the irish. ;) Even if many can’t speak the language well. Also, your formal warning to never say Ireland is part of the UK; we may have lost our Northern part due to plantations, but we’ve never really given much “love”for the British. (I hear there were celebrations all around when the queen died lol).
That’s not to say, fuck all English people, at all; it’s more the power™️ than the common people that we truly hate. ;)c
Doulingo keeps telling me "there are more people learning Irish here then there are native speakers"
But now I guess the native speakers are the ones trying to learn it there :D
no need to out us thanks

If they're a native speaker of Irish then they wouldn't need to use Duolingo.
@@MrHarrystank to be fair, learning a second language is hard. For adults with jobs and kids to raise, it's not lazy to not have the time or energy to devote to a project like that. Especially if you don't really *need* it for your daily life, and you aren't surrounded by native speakers to keep you focused and motivated.

@Honeysuckle Blossom Indeed, did 4 years of French at school, then took another 2 years at French A level, but apart from school trips have never actually been to France on holiday or anything. So that was worthwhile lol :) Meanwhile I go on camping trips to different parts of Wales every other year (love it there) and keep wishing English schools gave the option of learning Welsh instead - would probably have been far more useful to me and I'd have used it a lot more.
I had 2 years of french (dropped it like a brick when I got the chance) Bagette.
Also 2 years of German: Krankenwagen
@@Cyhcg5uhgb really? Ambulance?
I've been to France and Ireland with school. And during these few days I've learned more then in 5 years at school.
Btw, "Wo ist die Bibliothek?"

I'd totally watch a whole "Detective Moran" series, he's hilarious!
Can you speak irish ?
So funny! I learned more Irish in 3 weeks in the Gaeltacht than in a year or 2 in school even though I only did an hours class a day and spend the rest of the time playing sports, dancing and talking 'As Gaeilge". Had great craic there!
Me too!!!
Yes!! Foil Arms and Hog please give us more!!
The Irish speak Irish even when they're speaking English.
I mean, arguably. But then, do Americans speak American?
@@chris7263 Yep they do. Aside from spelling and vocabulary, there are certain grammar differences between British and American English. For instance, in American English, collective nouns are considered singular
This is my favourite sketch!
There is a sad irony to this video. Back around 2000 there was an announcement made that there was officially one last and final monolingual Irishman...meaning he spoke Irish and Irish only all his life and doesn't even know English. He was maybe 45 back then maybe more I don't remember. When he dies though, Irish will be classified a new way as a language I forget the terminology but it has serious implications. So they were going to him having him read all the texts they could and recording everything possible to ensure the monolingual native fluent Irish accent wouldn't be lost. Hope the guy is still kicking, if not what a sad day. My Irish-Do iss meer uh dwit! A hen, a dōg, a tree, a matter, a coowig, a shayv, a shop, a hope, annoy, a day...and um....yea I guess that's all. And it's probably so off in spelling and mistaken the pronunciations I hear that it is incomprehensible to an gaeligophone.
Apparently he died in 1998. The name was Seán Ó hEinirí. Quick google search will get ya the results. Pretty sad tbh, it's an interesting language with a... how to put it nicely... shitty recent history? Yeah that sums it well. When they say "the luck of the Irish" I'm always confused since historically speaking there wasn't much luck to go around on that island, having their population wiped out by a couple/a dozen percents every now and then.
@@thisrandomdude2880 The luck of the Irish is a way of saying bad luck
I'm so sorry about this but seeing how someone that's not irish spells irish words really cracks me up, not blaming you it's pretty darn difficult to spell but for anyone wondering here's the actual Irish words at the end of that sentence
Dia is mhuire duit! (typically used when replying to hello used when saying "hello to you too")
A haon, a dó, a trí, a ceathar, a cuig, a sé, a hocht, a naoi, a deich (basically numbers from 1-10) lol I mightnt have spelled them all right but you get the idea
and rest in peace to that irish man 😢
@@GalaxyCloud lol boy was I off! And died in 1998? Wow so that was an old documentary. I still cant remember the terminology used for languages like Irish though that it would have been switched to category wise...meaning it is a dead language but has a significant number of secondary iriah non monolunguimal speakers. I wonder if it would go back to normal classification if in some unlikely universe, Ireland went back to using Irish since it would have an all new accent and timbre and cadence from the original language's run.
For the sake of the world and its language students though, I would recommend a more thorough revamping of the alphabet and spelling to align with a more latinized or anglicized w....no...you know something, looking at the above post again, I think one thing that is so incredibly charming about Irish is the amazing usage and unique usage of course of the same alphabet much of the world uses and knows but taken fornauch a one of a kind wild ride with Gaelic.
@@YourName-tt8tz, in my opinion, I don't think Irish is ever really going to be like the main language in Ireland. its a nice language to have don't get me wrong, but I don't see it being used anymore as much as English. too little people in Ireland know Irish fluently for that. As for making the spelling more 'English' it's really not all that difficult once you start to get the hang of it. Well at least the reading part, spelling might be a little weird sometimes, but honestly, isn't English as well? Though the Irish do love their vowels in spelling like the word ''siopadoireacht'' it might look complicated to say but its literally ''shopa-dor-ukt'' (it means shopping btw) i think its the grammar that gets to me though, i still don't fully get it but there are weird language things like saying ''I'm hungry'' in Irish (Tá ocras orm) literally means 'hunger is on me'. Yeah, sorry for going on a little tangent there about the Irish language but hope someone learned something from it.
This is actually perfect timing, because I did a speech at the climate change protest in Dublin, but because I did it in Irish, nobody understood a word.
@Steffen Bakken Yeah, it was me and my friend, Hazel

@@theultimatebro9278 New york is 33feet above sea levels or 10m or so, london is 36ft or 11m or so UN estimates say that sea levels will rise by 15-26 feet by 2070 this makes a lot of cities near uninhabitable. My point being big business knows this and stirs up fear in the public the idea being get people to come together to solve a global problem which further enhances the UN agenda of a world government.
@@theultimatebro9278 If it is such an issue like you guys make it out to be despite there being no long term trend or much proof humans affect climate more than the variation you expect to see decade on decade, why was the 1970s cooler than the 1960s globally?
The 1940s-1960s is really when we started releasing a measurable amount of CO2. And also the physics of global warming don't make much sense gasses in our atmosphere dissolve in the sea as the sea heats up more gasses escape so there should be a slightly higher total CO2 level however its made no measurable impact since we first got reliable reading of the composition in our atmosphere in the 50s.
The last few centuries have been actually some of the coldest in the last couple thousand years, also why was it called "Global Warming" 10 years ago? Now everyone calls it "Climate Change". Maybe because the world wasn't warming and people began to doubt the ludicrous claims being made about "Climate Change".
root_Astr0 well no one listens when they speak in English either. Don’t take it to heart. 🤣
"He's leading us to the bodies!"...🤣🤣🤣
It’s like Japanese English education. Japanese have to learn English from 13 to 18, but nobody can speak.

But it's quite good (I'm learning Spanish) to keep the ball rolling. I've started taking to myself about things at home, like "I'm now cooking pasta with sauce", "we don't have bacon" or "this yellow dress is mine". It becomes more natural and now I'm starting to watch kids shows like Phineas and Ferb or shows I already know in Spanish and every day I understand a bit more.
I had "Tá an fear sá chuisnoir" the other day! (Meaning "there's a man in the fridge ")

There are some quite disturbing ones. Yesterday I got "El cuchillo alcanza al hombre" which translates to "the knife catches up with the man" - Maybe it's the same guy and he ended up in the fridge later 🤔

So funny! Kind of reminds me of the whole debacle where they sent an email for a sign to be translated into Welsh and wrote “I’m out of the office” on a road sign in Welsh
did this really happen? lol
@@alicedwonderland7733 yes picture of the sign on the BBC news site together with story
@@alicedwonderland7733 The English part of the sign said "No entry for heavy goods vehicles. Residential site only." The Welsh 'translation' read "I am not in the office at the moment. Send any work to be translated."

Irish Teachers : NEVER USE GOOGLE TRANSLATE
That’s every teacher

99% of how well people learn second languages at school anywhere
Most schools anywhere do English as a second language
Second? Absolutely not, piece of cake. The 3th and 4th... definitely.
Except the Germans who speak better English than we do. Lol
Public schools are just messed up.
AS an Indian, we had 4 languages. Sanskrit was the 4th and we could be conversational as long as we were studying it. Now lost touch! This is only in school. Apart from that, my mother tongue is different than the state language and we can speak the languages of the neighbour states too
I’m French and started to learn Irish; to be honest, it’s quite hard but hopefully I can speak some in the future! 👍

This reminds me of the korean education system about how they teach English. They don't teach anything useful for communication unless you're speaking in a grammatically perfect version of English that has you identify every single word and what its role is in the sentence.
I barely found this and this is the funniest skit I've seen In a while. Well done gentlemen 🤣
Try being an Australian in Dublin during World Cup,soccer when Ireland got through to I think the quarter finals in 1990? Then being on a tram with an old Irish gentleman conversing fluently in Gaelic “apparently” about their last match! Not understanding a bloody word I kept answering “Yeah!” Then the old guy got off at a stop. A young Irishman then said to me “Ya di-int understand a word ‘e was sayin di ya?” Apologies for my Irish accent!🤣 I said “Not a bloody word!” He said “Ya di ok mate. Ya answered wit a yes each time!”👍🏼🥴😆
I did that in AZ in a nail salon run by some sweet Asians. Some guys walked in, looked shady; I thought they were asking for money, then they left. The Asian workers talked up a storm. I understood nothing except their concern. At one point when a breath was taken I said, Right! The lady painting my toenails looked up and said, Right! Their whole demeanor changed, eased. I was hoping they felt better. Now I think they might have felt imposed upon. Hmmmmmm
I remember randomly picking up a novel from school library about a decade ago. The cover of the book said based on an old Irish legend so naturally i thought the author was Irish. When i finished reading i looked up the author's name on the web and it turned out this author is Australian but somehow grew up speaking Irish as his native language. I think the author's name was Cecil Mór or something along that line.
Edit: Found it. It's Caiseal Mór. Here's his bio users.tpg.com.au/waldrenm/mor.html
I'm glad this webpage is still active because most of the websites i used to frequent back in my highschool days all went defunct
Having a conversation in Ireland and not understanding a single word, and thus only responding with multiple "yeah yeah" "grand" and "for sure" is a great part of our culture
@@JohnDouille I had noticed that when I was in Ireland, some people just want to speak and come to you, I could never stay more than 5 minutes alone but I liked it!
