I speak 4 languages. English, German, Hungarian and Romanian. I've even tried a bit of Swedish and Icelandic. Hungarian, Romanian and English helped me a lot in learning German. German helped me make sense of Icelandic and Swedish. But I can't find any relationship with Gaelic. It's fascinating - a completely different world. Beautiful 😊

[@techt-thecelticmessenger2767]

That's a fair mix of languages! Chapeau! If you go back long enough, there are actually similarities with other ancient Indo-European languages, such as Latin, Ancient Greek and Sanskrit. However, the modern languages have evolved to such an extent that only a linguist will be able to still notice the correlation. A different world indeed and what attracted me to study Celtic languages in the first place!

I love that she says “GWAYLgyuh” for Gaeilge. That’s the true way of saying it according to the rules of pronunciation, which I will include below: The golden rule for spelling in Irish, caol le caol agus leathan le leathan, means slender with slender and broad with broad. The terms slender and broad refer to two categories of vowels. The broad vowels are a, o, and u. The slender vowels are i and e. The rule caol le caol agus leathan le leathan means that the vowels on either side of a consonant (or group of consonants) should agree; they should both be broad or both be slender. Except for “h”, all Irish consonants come in two flavors, called “broad” and “slender”. Basically, broad consonants are pronounced with a “-w” off-glide, and slender consonants are pronounced with a “-y” off-glide. Broad consonants are always written with the letters a, o, or u next to them. Slender consonants are always written with the letters i or e next to them. Examples: Slender “b” beo (byoh) bí (bee) Broad “b” bó (boh) buí (bwee) If you are interested in learning more about Gaeilge, I have been putting together some resources (see below): ************************************************ For those of you who are interested in learning our beautiful language, these are some resources I’ve gathered that you can use.

I know that portuguese is a romance language, but before the romans invaded the iberian peninsula we had a lot of native populations, maybe some of the words of the old language now extinct still survive on our grammar... but the similarities on that sentence are way too obvious.

My grandmother was born in Co. Cork. When I first learned that there was an Irish language I asked her to teach me. She said she never learned it because "the English" made it illegal to speak Irish. She was born in 1909. I always wondered if this was true? She always hated "the English". Wondering if anyone else has ever heard this?

[@stephenm4034]

This was a thing and started as far back as the 1360s, when it was made illegal for colonists in Ireland from England to speak the Irish language and for native Irish to speak it to the colonists. In the 1530s it was made illegal to speak Irish in the Irish Parliament and in the 1540s it was made illegal for the Irish language to be spoken in areas of Ireland controlled by the English. She likely had hatred for the English because she would have grown up around the Irish War for Independence which wasn't the most pleasant of times, to put it euphemistically.

[@_am_i_ell_]

When England took over Ireland they made it illegal to speak Irish (along with many other things) and BUT there were some secret hedge schools where kids could got to learn so that's how the language stuck around then in1916 there was a rebelion against the English because ww1 was taking place and Ireland was neutral and we won the war but England still has "ownership" and of 6 county's in Ireland and the Republic just calls them the nort

It's working for me. Thanks

It took me some time to figure the scheme of Irish spelling, but it was worth the time. Someone told me it would happen. He also explained that Latin has a pattern for long and short vowel, of which I still struggle.

Dear Mrs. Hellmuth.. I lived 6 beautifull years in Ireland.. AND I just picked up a couple of irish words and blessings.. I always wanted to learn the beautiful gaelic IRISH language... and THIS thing just made my heart and soul sing with joy... I am going to subscribe to your channel in just this second.. ;-) TINA HELLMUTH !! ich denke mal, sie sind auch Deutsche?? ;-) ;-) als Saarländerin fällt mir die Lautsprache eigentlich sehr leicht, hatte ich schon in Irland festgestellt.. weil viele Dialektwörter in unserem "deutsch" nicht nur so irre ähnlich klingen, sondern auch fast die gleiche Bedeutung haben... z. B. Willschde? oder.. Willett? sound exactly the same as "mhaith leat"... sounds like oh willett in saarländisch and means in german.. oh will sie.. *lol* cute, isn´t it?? I think this channel is goin to be a hole lota craic ;-) Grand stuff.. really cross me heart ;-) NoW...stay healthy, all the best for 2021... Slán leat, love ;-)

Fantastic video for a new learner from Canada. Why is it that sometimes that the Irish 'r' is slightly trilled and then other times it sounds like a regular 'r' pronouned in the English language? Thank you so much in advance. I love your style of teaching, very slow and you break it down for complete beginners, not to mention that you give us the literal meanings in Irish. Not sure if the R is always said the same or if sometimes it's rolled a bit or not....

[@techt-thecelticmessenger2767]

Hi Moon child! Thank you for your kind comments. I am glad that you liked my video. : ) As regards your question: Well spotted!! It is true that the quality of certain consonants changes depending on the letters that frame them. However, it's a little too complicated for a beginner's course, so I omitted to comment on it. A good topic for a future video, though! Thanks! : )

Conas atá tú? is so similar to Spanish ¿Cómo estás tú? and they both mean the same thing. interesting.

[@Will-cu6vi]

ijansk If I recall, the Lebor Gabala Erinn says that the Milesians (Irish) arrived to Ireland from Spain.

[@techt-thecelticmessenger2767]

​@@Will-cu6vi You remember correctly, Frattelo! Although the stories in Lebor Gabála are of course just part of Irish Mythology.

[@asmrhousemouse3157]

It definitely rolls off the tongue nicely!

[@thekingpotato3573]

I’m going to learn more thanks for your help

[@irish1209]

Lovely video, thank you 😊

[@deoirdanandrei1512]

This video is very helpful, go raibh maith agat! I really appreciate how good your pronunciation is, especially your use of the rolled r’s (the actual way natives from all dialects pronounce Irish, and not with the retroflex r) and you pronouncing properly broad and slender consonants, maith thú!

[@techt-thecelticmessenger2767]

GRMMA, a Dheoirdáin! : )

[@triskalrecords2863]

your so kind

Totally Impressed by her native sounding English. I could not detect that English is not her native tongue.

[@mariemorris7031]

Thank you so much!!!! This is really neat!!!! Thanks

[@greycorner]

This was really useful for me to start learning Irish, I'm also learning on how to make illuminated letters, so that way I can write on a piece of parchment a full story in Gaelige

[@techt-thecelticmessenger2767]

That's lovely! Best of luck with that, Jane!

[@ThePetemcaleer]

I found this really fascinating....Thank you
