Don't worry too much about where that 1% came from. I'm 1% Native American. Any relations I may have in America are the descendents of people arriving in the late 1800s- early 1900s. 😊

I was fascinated to see that you undertook a DNA test to find your ancestry. I did one last year and at the age of 64 discovered that I had been an Irish citizen all my life without realising it. I was adopted at birth and brought by a family in the UK who had Irish heritage. I was delighted to find my long lost family and a brother and sister I never knew I had, they have embraced me and welcomed me to the family. My mother was from Cork and my father was from Dublin, I now have an Irish passport and have been with the help of your videos trying to learn as much as I can about the island of Ireland and the people who inhabit it.

I'm from Hong Kong and I had Irish teachers at school, teaching English, geography, history and .... One was from Dublin, one from Kildare, one from Cork, one from western Ireland, I don't know where, and still another from Londonderry (Derry!). Unfortunately, I didn't manage to pick up an Irish accent from them, but I do recognise someone from Ireland immediately from the way they speak. Pardon me, if I say your Irish way of speaking English captivates me entirely, and throws me back to the embrace of my teachers, who are now in heaven. I visited Dublin twice, first time on St Patrick's day. My wife and I went to Mass in the morning, had breakfast with my teacher, watched the procession through the streets, and passed by the Liffey dyed in green. The same evening, my teacher came over to the hotel and we had dinner together, Irish stew and Guinness, to complete the celebration! Would I be too presumptuous, if I claimed to be half an Irishman? ☘☘☘

Thank you for this. Note the boundaries of the Irish language dialects dont match the modern province boundaries, but much older province boundaries:- ULSTER IRISH - Bounded by the Rivers Erne + Boyne (Louth + North Meath Spoke Ulster Irish CONNAUGHT IRISH - Bounded by the Rivers Shannon, Brosna, Inny + Erne (Clare, West Offaly, West Westmeath, Longford, West Cavan, South Fermanagh + the small piece of Donegal South of the Erne spoke Connaught Irish) MUNSTER IRISH - Bounded by the Rivers Shannon + Nore (Kilkenny West of the Nore spoke Munster Irish LEINSTER - Bounded by the Rivers Nore + Boyne (Leinster Irish was actually very similar to Connaught Irish, whereby you had a Central Irish language dialect, which ran from Mayo to Wexford:- “Connaught / Leinster Irish”)

It's strange to think that I'm Italian, I live in Italy, and I and a group of friends of mine are learning Irish alone (of course there are no schools of Irish in Italy...), we help eachother and we tray to speak the more Irish we can... and that's only because we think Irish is an amazong tongue!

​@@pietrobuoso1169why Irish, I don't understand why you want to learn it

[@pietrobuoso1169]

@@liambyrne591 it can be any reason to love? Because Irish is beautiful, because it's the language of the Heroes of '98, of Wolfe Tone, of Patrick Pearse, of Bobby Sands... because it's a language of freedom instead of a language that you are forced to learn because it rules the economy, because its grammar is fascineting, because of all the beautiful ballads, songs, sean-nós and prayers who are only in Irish. Because of the Irish poetry, because of the irish proverbs, because anything is more beautiful in Irish! Because it is a language in which you can tell your secrets... no one will understand you outside the Gaeltacht at least. Because it's a problem that we are loosing it and I want to do all that I can to maintein it. Because in northern Italy, under all our latin heritage something of the celts is still alive. But after all this is only speaking, cause there's no reason to love, just love

I'm in Belfast and so we use Ulster Gaelic, we all know there are different dialects, but Im just realising the huge difference in pronunciation.

[@Kalvinism]

yeah a chara, i'm from Dublin, the original Leinster dialact is long gone and the irish we learn in school here based mostly on Munster pronunciation. I listen to a lot of Kneecap and hear loads of different pronunciation, but i think it might be the best sounding dialect in my opinion. my gf is a fluent speaker from Galway so I'm learning the Connacht/Connemara dialect. Irish is really cool, and I love how on such a small island we have such variety in our language.

[@genevievedolan1288]

Thank you for the Irish language lesson. It is very interesting to hear the different dialects. I hope you do more. Keith O’Brien, you look and act so much like my son you could be his twin, (which of course means I think you are gorgeous absolutely gorgeous)

[@DidYaServe]

Good video. I'm a native Irish speaker from Cork and my mother is one from Corca Dhuibhne in Kerry so I have the Munster dialect. I attended a Gaelscoil here in the city and a Gaelcholáiste out in Ballincollig but those I went there with quickly lost their Irish once they finished school. I wish they would teach young students the local dialects instead of the caighdeán as people engage with it more enthusiastically. Standard Irish comes across as somewhat bland and forced in my opinion.

[@davyholden]

I do agree. It’s nice to have a particular dialect that is local to where you come from. For me, even though I come from the southeast, I must say, I love the Connacht dialect!

[@deaganachomarunacathasaigh4344]

If you break down theres 20 dialects of Irish within 3 provincal dialectal groups. 21 if you include the Caighdeán. I myself speak South Mayo Irish but I do have alot of North Mayo influences. Theres 3 dialects in Mayo. Gaeilge Mhuigeo Theas, Gaelig Acla agus Gaelige Mhuigheo Thuaidh. South Mayo Irish is similar to East Galway Irish and has a similar sound to Galway Irish but with its own unique pronunciations. North Mayo Irish has very strong Ulster influences from Tyrone because of the Ulster plantation. Achill Island/Inis Bigil Irish has influences from West Ulster. But at heart all 3 are Connacht dialects

The 1% is a misread. I did get 2.8% Ashkenazi as well as 97.3% Irish, Welsh & Scottish but when they updated I got 87.1% Irish and 12.9% Scottish and Welsh. The small percentages shouldn't be taken seriously. It just depends on their reference panels and their algorithms. This is why when dna testing companies update their methods you can lose and gain those small trace regions.
