This method of presentation is brilliant. I missed so much on the first time through. On the second, I caught a bit more. By the end, I followed along completely. I love that they don't show you the written part until you've been listening a bit.

Thank you so much for putting these up, I've been looking for this series for years.

On a form from a store I was asked my 'title'. They meant Ms, Mrs or Miss. I wrote 'Mise' so now all my mail from them starts with Mise Siobhra.

That's so funny. The director of an Irish language school told us that he was introducing himself to a complete beginner learning the language. He said, "Mise Liam" and pointed to himself. So for the rest of the time the student was in school, she called him "Mise Liam."

Good! Now I can ask someone's name ...but there's not guarantee I'll understand them using Ulster Irish:)

Matthew Tran-Adams The dialects aren't that different. I have Ulster Irish, and I have no trouble understanding people from Connacht and Munster.

This is all a lot closer to Scottish Gaelic than any Irish I´ve heard before. Although the written bits are standard Irish. So they write _inión_ but say it the same (almost) as Scottish _nighean_ .

@audreynickel3803 8 жыл бұрын

It is Ulster Irish, and we do pronounce "iníon" as "neen." But the other dialects aren't much different in that regard.

Audrey Nickel It struck me that some of the speakers seemed to make two syllables of it, ni-an, which is normally a Scots speciality ;-) faclair.com/Listen/nighean.mp3

@audreynickel3803 8 жыл бұрын

It can vary a bit, depending on the speaker and the context (and how fast they're trying to fit in the syllables)!

Cad é Meir ata tu, is Ulster Irish but Canus ata tu is used elsewhere, how can they both mean the same thing when they are spelled and sound so different.....forgive the spelling I’m still learning

Why is the D replaced with Y in Deadra

@earlofplastic Жыл бұрын

Her name is being used in the vocative case, so it becomes 'a Dheadra' and the D sound becomes a softened Y sound. Look up how the vocative case changes names as it varies

Do they not say dia duit in NI ? In this video they always say hello. Is that common in the Republic as well?

@@tomnoble3210 The three main dialects are distinct enough to require a bit of effort to understand eachother in the beginning but they're not unintelligible from one another once the ear is attuned

@LynnMGallagher 4 жыл бұрын

@@tomnoble3210 I agree with Harky. People who learned Irish as a child in Ireland have no trouble understanding any Irish dialect. Those of us who are still developing an ear for the language might not recognize a word that we know in one dialect but hadn't heard spoken in another dialect.

@@LynnMGallagher That makes sense. Like how I can understand deep Southern dialects in America but watched a friend completely not understand when a neighbor asked him, “Have ya et yet?”
