To Express 'Want' in Irish (Part 1)

[@addictedtocraic]

The literal translations are so useful to this adult learner

[@donhaygood2965]

I’ve learned more in three of your videos than a year of Duolingo and three months of Rosetta Stone...iontach!

[@anbocmor]

I noticed a wee error. I put the síneadh fada on the word ticéad on the wrong letter! This occurred a couple of times due to a cut and paste between the slides. Genuine slip of the finger on the keyboard. I have gone to confessions, and said three Hail Marys and four Our Fathers, and have received absolution. Given that it took so long to get the slides and video up, I'm going to have to take the public stoning, and I'm not going to correct it. It will be corrected in the notes, and is not vitally important to the video . :-)

[@yodhamartialarts2913]

Keep these coming please! If you set up a patreon page I'd pay for this. As I'm sure many would

[@xxDERMO]

Would 💯 pay for these as well hopefully everything is ok and you start doing these again 👌

@Seán Mór LOL.

[@bernie5412]

I am a total beginner so a question. Your slide shows Ba mhaith for all the pronouns except he/leis. But at the bottom it show Ba mhaith leis an fhear. Which is correct mhaith leis or maith leis. Thanks

[@sosh5042]

Please continue the clear understanding you provide for the structure of how words and sentences fit together properly. Go raibh maith agat. Ta an mhunteior go hiontach.

What happened to these videos they were amazing

[@jacquelinemcphee5406]

Please, please, please can you make more of these? Am from Belfast and spent every summer in Donegal. Have been trying to learn Irish on Duolingo and find the pronunciation and phrasing there super confusing. Then watched your first video and suddenly all made sense! Who knew someone who never actually studied Irish could have already absorbed the Ulster dialect! Would love to hear more Tyrone accent Irish explained so well!

[@anbocmor]

Thankyou for your positive message, Jacqueline. I am embarrassed I have not followed up on these videos, but I have loads more in my head. I promise I will try again now to get a new one up each week. Let me know if there's any areas you'd like covered.

[@TheGildedRose84]

[@chalazonclark6810]

You are forgiven . Good work and we'll done

[@mariemcallister7413]

Just found your site would like to so back to your first lesson how do I find it ?

[@dakdoeshobbies8972]

Sean, I hope youre okay. Please continue the lessons with a patreon

[@dennisdelany9098]

Cá bhfuil cuid a dó? Mar shampla "Ba mhaith leis an fhear dul abhaile' / Ba mhaith leis na mná rud éigin a feiceáil.' (nílim cinnte go bhfuil ceart agam!). Also does Irish have a subjunctive case as in "Que-est ce que tu veux que je fasse?" / Qué quieres que te diga? (What do you expect me to do/What do you want me to say?) - there is no subjunctive in English in these cases so I have to use other languages, gabh mo leithscéail!

[@McBean09]

Tá mé ag iarraidh níos mó físeáin uait. ;)

[@sylvaingrandcerf6486]

Is maith liom an físeán seo!

[@sosh5042]

Go raibh maith agat a Sean. An bhfuil tu go maith? Not sure thats quite right. There has been a thought maybe you can shed light on in your own way. Is it possible to have visible sentence replies to your questions or comments to see how to structure those to gain a 3 dimensional view of the language in full use? Le do thoil please give your thoughts when possible. Much appreciated!!

[@zaorsha4644]

In the vocative, "Seán" becomes "Sheáin". E.g "Go raibh maith agat a Sheáin". :)
