How to say Mo Ghile Mear in Irish

[@MetalWarrior-jb5cq]

Thanks for these videos. Irish language is very tough to learn. Without you and your channel. We wouldn't have a ghost of a chance.

[@maryd2409]

Love your videos. Very helpful Siobhan !

[@TheNycbagpiper]

You are absolutely awesome

Irish is IMHO the most lovely language on the planet. I sing this song to my daughter at bedtime (poorly). It’s one of her favorites. Thank you for the help with pronunciation!

[@williamwallace-m4v]

bravo. this was much needed.

[@Weyitlakatzin]

Exactly what I was looking for!

[@shadowmend7373]

Listening to these videos makes me feel very emotional at times and gives me goosebumps, it is such a special language so beautiful to listen too. My Great Grandmother spoke it fluently

[@tomjones2202]

Glad you like it!

I do not speak Irish Gaelic but I've been and still am trying to learn Scottish Gaelic. Came upon this video and find it very very interesting. Some things I understood and it was so nicely presented. Very clear speech, easy to follow. Thank you so much. I'll watch more of your videos. No, not even dreaming of trying to learn both versions of Gaelic but I like the sound of it and enjoy the beautiful rhythm of the sentences. 🙋🏻‍♀️Best wishes from the Bavarian Alps - my very own Highlands 😀

Could you please put up the other 2 verses of this wonderful song or tell me where to find them?!!!. My Aussie acapella group is performing this abd we have used your pronunciation guide to learn half of the song. It was so amazing! Thank you so so much.

[@BitesizeIrish]

Hi, here you go: www.celticartscenter.com/Songs/Irish/MoGhileMear.html Best of luck with the performance 😊

[@garrymacantanaiste575]

Thank you so much, I really want to sing this song, but I couldn't work out the phonetics. This is GOLD.

[@bubsstand6388]

Thank you so much! I've been trying to learn the verses to this song for years. Your pronunciation guide and the phonetic spelling were so helpful! I appreciate all the time and energy that went into making this video. I wonder if you would do a follow up video with another couple of verses?

Dia dhuit Siobhan agus go raibh maith agath ! Greetings from France.

[@djsteffon8966]

Hello! Can you make a video on how to say “Erin Go Bragh”, there are no videos on how to pronounce this correctly. Thank you!

[@A.D953]

Hi can you tell me if "gan leithscéal" means no excuse

[@LaurenceOConnor-fg4dk]

Well, that was informative.

[@therightfoot81]

I'm in the middle of trying to learn my native language, and I am totally confused with some of the words in this particular video and I'm 100% sure it's my lack of understanding. But, my confusion? The word 'Because' which I've learned up to now is 'Mar'. Then there are other words like 'Bron', which I have thought meant 'sad' or 'sadness'. Please settle my determined mind and teach me the why I'm seeing things differently or is it a thing that I am still way behind in my efforts to learn Irish. Great vid by the way.

[@chrisoleary9876]

Go raibh mile maith agat a Siobhan!

[@fredfloyd68]

hein do

[@williamwallace-m4v]

why cant gaelic be written like in english? would make things much easier. or simply switch to a phenotic script as the alphabet?

[@williamwallace-m4v]

@@BitesizeIrish okay i have 2 questions regarding your answer: 1) has gaelic the same problem as british english in that the spelling is stuck in the 14th century whereas the pronunciation changed? or has gaelic always been written in an unnecessarily complicated way that doesn't actually match the letters it uses in pronounciation? e.g. was "glè mhath" spelled and pronounced like "gle wah" back in the day or more like "gle math"? if the spelling never matched the pronunciation anyway, why not make the spelling easier? then we wouldnt sacrifice the authenticity of the language.

[@williamwallace-m4v]

​@@BitesizeIrish thanks for the answer. so the spelling is standardized and logical in its own frame. but is there a standard spoken irish I could stick to while learning?

[@JosephDennisKelly]

Siobhan, the video highlights the innate musicality of Irish, the English sounds absolutely flat in comparison. Really well done.
