@@Jack-cv4ej well you do realise nearly 40% can speak it but only 4% speak it on a daily basis. You obviously live in Dublin or Cork or some city where ya don’t have a clue what’s going on around ya. There are gaelscoils everywhere in Ireland and people do go to them, sure the only school where I live is a gaelscoil and I’m in the north of Ireland too😂

This man's first language was probably Irish (Also known as Irish Gaelic.) At 0:51 he says "San thuas! An gcíonn tú é? San thuas a bhíodar!". He said this while looking away from the camera to someone (probably his son).

[@faelan1950]

This means, "Up there! Do you see it? They were up there!" Funnily enough, his accent is far easier to understand while speaking Irish lol.
