Great stuff, I’d never heard the Munster one even though that’s where I’m from ....I’d always used cén fáth. Good to have a few options.

[@contactlight8079]

My father, from Tipp always used the Munster version. He was in his 80's when he died. Could it be a generational thing?

[@sirchess3095]

I honestly came to listen to the way irish people say WHY (uuuwhyyyyyyy)

[@TradIrishHarper]

Intoxicating language.

[@CodeAndGin]

And this is why i don't talk to anyone outside of either Gaeilge na Laighean nó Gaeilge Chonamara. Tá mórán focail nach bhfuil ar eolas agam mar d'foglaim mó chuid ghaeilge i gConamara.

[@nicolemadden1016]

Could you please tell me how to say "You talk too much" my grandfather used to say it to me as a child

[@martinneosel3403]
