This is good but please get the Gaelic speaker a better mic. So much of the pronunciation is lost to the bad audio quality, it makes it that much more difficult. Not sure if it's a bad mic or if he he is using the mic on his headphones and just has it much too close. It's a real shame

[@MegaJacko4]

Gaelic is one of the oldest languages of the ancient world that is still with us today. It came from the mouths of the Celts and Its just amazing how the echos of a time long since past can still be heard today. How this language survived well over 1000 years is a mystery but were certainly blessed to have it still. May it continue to grow.

[@fearnpol4938]

Gaelic isn’t a Celtic language but is lumped in with them, just as the Gaels are not Celts, the Welsh are though.

[@fearnpol4938]

@@NeonDruid13 No idea what you mean by that as the Gaels had their own gods before the arrival of the Middle Eastern sky father cult. If your talking about the druids then they spoke a form of Welsh.

[@pigdogmtb283]

@@fearnpol4938 Gaelic does come from the Celtic language. Irish, Scottish and manx are Q Celtic (Goidelic) languages and Welsh and Cornish are P Celtic (Brethonic) languages. So many people think that "Celtic" is a single language. "The Celts", in the later period, were a people with several dialects and languages branched out from Proto Celtic.

I’ve got not one drop of Scottish in me, nor Irish, but I started learning Irish before a vacation there. Duolingo helped, so did some videos and a live class. I got turned off by some people in a Facebook group; very snooty about native speakers vs “urban” or “new-learners” pronunciations. Hey, I understand wanting to preserve the authenticity of the language, but don’t be all nasty about it. Duolingo added Scots Gaelic a while ago and I switched to that. Seems much easier ( more sound bytes with Scots vs Irish). This is great, glad I stumbled up on it! I really enjoy hearing the phrases spoken and I will take another poster’s advice to slow down the speed for more difficult words.

Some parts of Scotland were invaded by Vikings . Norse influence can be heard in the Scots language in the Northern islands and the East Coast - including words. It also influences the accent of Gaelic in the Outer Hebrides (Eileannan and Iar) - especially in Lewis. Feasgar however is related to Latin - cf, Vespers (Evening Prayer,)

[@almirrafaeldearruda9053]

Very close to the Faroese language sounds

[@alexandramurdoch2850]

Feasgar is also an Irish word. In the Ulster dialect it means early evening. Much of the written form of this video can be clearly understood by Irish speakers

@@maddog8841 another reason what pisses us off AND the northern and southern Irish is when Americans give it "oooo im from Scotland my names scottish back to my DNA test or ancestors back to my great great great great great great great great uncles sister's cousin's 2nd aunt toenail from the custard pixy in the forrest" . we jus piss ourselves laughin when they self proclaim self delude all that bullsh1t to us aswell. Maybe at 1 point (IN TIME CENTURIES AGO) there was scots or irish in the family, but that died waaaaayy long ago and anything that was there has long been dead . Easiest example they don't understand us don't know that we are a separate individual country have different history culture language flag heritage bloodline slang spellings. and yet they claim they are without ever even setting foot here HAAAAHAHAHAAA thats the best part we piss ourselves laughin for. Self proclaimed American scotsman asking a question. A pure blooded scotsman replies. The American "whaaaaat" . mind explosion that it isn't the epicenter of the world as it was deluded into thinking same as its self proclaimed gobshyte that was saying they were from Scotland. Ahaaaaaaaaahahahahahahahaaa. of course only the real proper original true blodded Scotsman know this (UNLIKE THE CARDBOARD CUTOUTS THAT SELF PROCLAIM THEMSELVES TO BE) so no don't tell me what i can and can't what is and isn't about me my blood my fellow countrymen and my birthplace and homeland . you got that .

This is ok for phrases and single words however you can not learn this in your sleep and you can not put a bunch of words together with English grammar. So this video is ok for words and phrases not for sentences.

[@loriewilkos6921]

I think for me it's great for sentences. As a fairly new learner it's important to understand how to begin and end a sentence. (Chan eil, Tha, A bheil, Nach eil, - Ann, orm, ort etc.) Then learning the meaning and placement of the words in between gives me the skill to make sentences.

[@loriewilkos6921]

That is good advice I do write down the words a lot I take Gàidhlig classes with Norrie MacIver of Skippinish. He tells us that repetition is important. This video really helps with pronunciation as well. Listening to a native speaker really helps me a lot.

[@IslasYT]

These types of things and all passive listening does help speed up learning but you have to actively be learning the language as well, you can't passively learn one.

Sorry, the female voice is much louder volume than the male voice, it causes an audio disruption in focus. I strain to hear muffled Gaelic pronunciations, hidden behind some synth-ambient noise.. then suddenly the woman's voice is sharp and high volume. I made it 3 phrases before it annoyed me too much. Sorry, the audio really really needs to be fixed on this.
