Does the verbal goes all the time at the end?
@anbocmor
@anbocmor 21 күн бұрын
@@efthimiosmakris3476 it can shift around depending on the sentence, and depending on whether there's a preposition with it. But there's a pattern as follows: "I would like the bread to eat", whereas English would say "I would like to eat the bread". But it's a very versatile form of the verb and can weave it's way into the middle or end of sentences, and even at or near the start.

There is so much really useful content here for beginners, not just in terms of vocab but also pronunciation and bits of grammar. Plus there's no talking down to us; instead here we have an expert teacher standing alongside us and encouraging us along with real generosity of spirit.

You did an excellent job of explaining the material. I never understood what 'ann' meant when using DuoLingo or Rosetta Stone, you have clarified the meaning of it for me, your explanation of the grammar was much better than any previous explanation of the grammar that I have seen.

I watched the video a second time this morning, and after finishing it went back to begin watching the chart of sentences with verbal nouns forming the meaning that the suffix 'ing' gives in English. At 5:28 you said something very helpful about the sample sentence 'Tá mé ag déanamh mo dhíchill' ('I am doing my best'). You said: 'So, "déan,' and then "ag déanamh," "doing," you're really saying, 'déanamh' means "the act of doing," so you're at the act of doing.' That is an excellent explanation and makes it much easier to understand how verbal nouns work. When I first saw verbal nouns in Irish, I mistook them for verbs. Your explanation shows how they work really well. It is similar to how 'at war,' functions in the English sentence 'Germany is at war.' 'Tá mé ag déanamh mo dhíchill' translates more literally as 'I am at doing my best,' that is how 'ag déanamh' manages to function as a noun in the sentence, even though to someone not familiar with the language it might be mistaken for a verb, as I mistook it for such, initially.

I watched the whole video. I intend to watch it again. I am trying to teach myself Irish. I am confused by the concept of the verbal noun, because the words that are described as verbal nouns often seem to simply be verbs to me. I will use the verbal noun 'ag ól,' in the sentence 'Tá an cailín ag ól,' as an example. 'Ag ól,' means 'drinking,' the sentence, in full, means 'The girl is drinking,' on the surface it seems 'ag ól' is verb phrase, not a verbal noun, because it is describing an action, the girl's drinking. I know what 'ag ól,' and similar phrases such as 'ag ithe,' 'ag rith,' etc mean, but the idea of labeling them as 'verbal nouns' I find confusing.

I had the concept explained to me on Quora. I basically understand it now. 'Ag,' in 'Tá an cailín ag ól,' is essentially a preposition, although it is classified as a particle, it basically means 'at,' so 'Tá an cailín ag ól,' means 'The girl is at drinking,' in that context 'drinking,' is a noun instead of a verb in a similar way to how in the English sentence 'Germany is at war,' 'war' is a noun instead of a verb. I think that 'ag' is strictly speaking a particle, not a preposition, in that sentence, but thinking of it as a preposition, even though not strictly speaking, accurate, makes one able to understand how 'ag ól' is a verbal noun in the sample sentence.
