  • I was born in Ireland and was adopted out at 5years of age. My adopted mother, who is irish, (her parents were born in Ireland) would not allow Irish spoken in the house. I so enjoy listening to it.

  • @McGonagall1994 yes most irish people do. I know i do and so do me friends.

  • ? is this Irish ?

  • God Bless you Nan and keep you strong after you car accident. Get Well soon.

  • Can only say prayers and math in Irish.

  • Awww shes so cute!

  • IRISH

  • Doesn't sound anything like the one I learned, but i'm from leinster.

  • @momooks It is though! I totally understand this. She just leaves out the last few lines, that's all.

  • i love your nan already :) <3 kisses.

  • @Darlingxavenue - thanks, we love her too. She's just suffered two fractured ribs in a car crash here in the East End - poor old thing. She's nearly 86 too.

    I see you are a stand up comedian, we'll have to come and see one of your shows!! You should contact the Laughter Factory people in Dubai, they regularly run stand up comedian shows out there!

    Regards

    Danny

  • @dr1141tube East End of LOndon? Sorry to hear she was in a car accident. This video is very sweet!

  • Éire <3

  • this women is my favorite she's so awesome and she speaks so quickly it's amazing i wish she could teach me gealic.on a diffrent note she's just too cute:)

    *kissesdear* i have ancesstors in skype i belive idk but, my last name is nicholson

  • What a cool language. I'd like to learn it, even though I'm not Irish. She has a beautiful accent as well. :)

    Also, do Irish people all call their grandmothers 'Nan'? Where I'm from, Newfoundland, everyone says 'Nan', as opposed to 'Grandma' in the rest of Canada. I suppose it comes from the Irish, then, since we had so many immigrants.

  • Thats great, love hearing irish on YouTube. Did she not skip a few lines though? I'm pretty sure she did.

  • wow either this lady hasnt spoken any irish in a LONG time or she has a REALLY strong north/west accent. It sounds hardly anything like how we say it in Munster! good for her though :) I love youtube-savvy grannies :)

  • can you recommend an irish dictionary that i mite be able to get from the library, because i am learning the language

  • I would just like to know who the hell could "thumbs down" the Lord's prayer - regardless of the language? (Maybe some Brits)? I don't speak Gaelic, but just the sound of it is magical and melodious; it's fantastic that the language is still alive.

  • That doesn't sound like the Our Father that I learned in Irish.

  • i dont no this in english dont mind irish

  • what a sweet little lady, shame most of the irish youth are atheist fake christians that only attend church to gossip.

  • amen

  • The donegal irish sounds so different to the connemara irish:L

  • I love irish language, it's hard to learn but it's getting there :)

  • Hmm i think i learned a different version...

  • You Nan is adorable!

  • My dad is a dental tech and mentions when anyone has badly fitting dentures to the point that I notice. Her dentures don't fit well, she has to keep pressing them back in and has to keep them close so they don't shift or fall out.

  • This Lady sais it right, its called Gaelic not Irish

  • @sainglain

    It's my wonderful Donegal mum. But your comment about the language is a little off - yes if you are speaking in Irish the language is Gaelic. If you are speaking in English as we are here, then it is called Irish.

    Indeed it is the same mistake many English make when referring to Ireland as Eire. The name of Ireland in Irish is Eire, in English it is Ireland.

    Great you like my Mum's Our Father.

  • @dr1141tube - díreach toisc go labhraíonn tú Béarla agus cónaí i Sasana ní chiallaíonn gach ceann ar YouTube Tá a ró-

  • @sainglain

    Sanglain, listen mate, why not just accept you have got it wrong. Your comment in Irish is not even coherent - what has living in England and speaking English got to do with anything? If you are going to say it, say it in English!

    I appreciate it that you like my old Mum speaking Irish and it is good to see what I say supported by ScabbyHole99 too.

  • @dr1141tube - you have two massive ENGLISH CHIPS on your shoulders - fuck off you english cunt you are no wat relted to ÉIRE = 32

  • @sainglain

    I have approved your comment on hear. It illustrates a number of things, one that you have no respect for the Our Father or my Irish mum by saying what you have said, secondly, that you typify the reaction of someone who has lost an argument badly and as a result are a bad, no very bad loser, thirdly - you are a twat also.

    Can I suggest you go back to your worrying obessesion with videos of horses - I guess they must give you some satisfaction :)

    Regards loser!

  • @dr1141tube She's wonderful, and I thank you from the bottom of my Kelto-Scandic heart

  • @dr1141tube My dad always called it Irish. And he called Scottish Gaelic Scottish. Not that wikipedia is the best source, but Gaeilge seems to be the preferred term if we're being pedantic.

  • @sainglain The vast majority of people in Ireland call the language 'Irish' - that is it's official name in English. Some people say 'Gaelic' so as not to confuse people like you. However, go to any book store and look for a 'Gaelic' dictionary, and you'll end up with the wrong language! An Irish dictionary is what you'd need.

  • @sainglain It's Irish.

  • @sainglain Where the fuck are you from? It's called Irish or Gaeilge in Ireland

  • @sainglain I dunno where you live, it's called Irish or GAEILGE in Ireland.

  • Céad míle fáilte romhat!

  • @Thrawn6211 Dia duit how do you put fada's over a word?

    Go raibh maith agat. :)

  • @Thrawn6211 Dia duit how do you put a fada over a word?

  • It's beautiful! I love this language... and now I love also this woman! Give her my congratulations!

    Francesco (Italy)

  • the one thing my grandmother made me learn in irish was this prayer wont teach me the rest of the language though

  • I am an American with of Irish decent. I was wondering if everyone here in this room would mind helping it out. I want to learn Gaelic but for where I live its pretty much hopeless. Slainte Mhath.

  • @hannigan06 i do too, and since gaelic is seldom spoken in ireland nowdays, it'll be hard to find a teacher

  • Does n'e one have this in Connacht Irish??

  • Thank you!

  • I love Irish!

  • my father used to teach me that version of the fathers prayer

  • im part Irish, id love to learn a little Gaelic

  • Ár nAthair, atá ar neamh:

    Go naofar d'ainm.

    Go dtagaidh do ríocht.

    Go ndéantar do thoil ar an talamh,

    mar dhéantar ar neamh.

    Ár n-arán laethúil tabhair dúinn inniu,

    agus maith dúinn ár bhfiacha, mar mhaithimid dár bhféichiúnaithe féin. Agus ná lig sinn i gcathú,

    ach saor sinn ó olc.

    (Óir is leatsa an Ríocht

    agus an Chumhacht agus an Ghlóir tré shaol na saol.) Amen.

  • You can leave out the bracketed bit, that's the Protestant version!!!

  • nil aon gailge agum, that is not what i knew it as.

  • me either

  • That is way different from Leinster Irish...

  • this is one of the best languages i want to learn it

  • Hi, in the Church of Ireland [Anglican] it is said that way , I'll dig it out and post it later, also there are different versions in Ulster Connacht & Munster. How about Doirelondain,I'm only coddin.

  • OMG! i would soo love it if u could post this in Connacht Irish! Question... are the Anglican and Catholic prayers different in Irish??

  • OMG! i would soo love it if u could post this in Connacht Irish! Question... are the Anglican and Catholic prayers different in Irish??

  • Beautiful. God Bless =}}

  • 'sé DOIRE an t-ainm atá air!

  • Thanks for the comment PakehaKiritea. I note your focus on Maori rights. One of the last things my Dad said before he passed away in hospital was that he could see the face of a tattooed Maori warrior looking down at him from across the hospital room.

    Always had a fondness for Maori people as a result so your comments are very welcome.

  • Great to hear...thanks....may Christ be praised !

  • Sounds like she's casting a voodoo spell on me... =O

  • ITS DERRY!!! And no other name but that!

  • ah i see... tá brón orm

  • Fadhb ar bith

  • why dont we call London Derrylondon? See how the Brits like it

  • Fiach

    If you read all the comments, you'll see that as a Londoner, I already made this point 4 months ago.

    Cheers

  • @Fiach2008 LMAO that would start a sh*tstorm Eh?

  • @Fiach2008 To be honest I couldn't give a fuck. And somehow I don't think the Scottish, the Welsh or the Northern Irish (also British) would give a fuck either.

  • @Fiach2008 i know what you mean. I wish the british would stop acting so slefish and give us our country back and leave our country alone!

  • I also remember learning the our father in Irish at national school too. God bless you. Amen

  • Beautiful!

  • Sweet on the preservation of Gaelic. :)

  • Beannacth dia ort.

    God bless. It's always beautiful to see our language preserved.

    As gCanada.

    From Canada.

  • Even if i cnt speak Irish.. I can still read it... that makes me a bit happier now! :D

  • Very funny comment by the way. I like the way the video is keeping older traditions alive even though I don't identify with it.

  • I appreciate the comments separatesix - guessing your roots are from the other "tradition" :) If they are originally Scottish, then the Our Father in Gaelic would certainly be part of your tradition too as the language was widely spoken across that great Celtic fringe - it's a shame the Troubles meant one "side" (not the best word) didn't feel the Irish or Gaelic was their tradition too. Exploitation by the Establishment was the problem - pitting working class against working class!

  • Tha. Tha e bronach. Colonialism/Imperialism really, isn't it?

  • xthebiggeekx It's County Londonderry now we renamed it.

  • separatesix

    Two comments mate - as a Londoner, I don't like having my city's name appended to the front of anyone else's County or City. I would not want to be living in DerryLondon!

    You are lucky this revisionist naming wasn't taking place nowadays because you might be living in Co CocaColaderry and in 10yrs time when the contract was over, you'd be in Co Pepsiderry or Co BancoSantanderderry. :)

    Secondly, its County Derry no matter what sort of revisionist

  • actually, that last bit is where you're wrong. To be "official" It's the county of Londonderry and the City of Derry, though most people, if they don't have strong political opinions would just choose the easy option, Derry, whilst some try to mediate by collaborating both into L'Derry and in fact in new history books it's written as "Derry/Londonderry". It's a crazy world we live in...

  • brizzo

    Thanks for the comments. I agree that "officially" it may be County Londonderry but that doesn't change the fact that most people with a Nationalist / Irish perspective only recognise it by its original name - County Derry. If Bombay is now Mumbai, if Peking is now Beijing, then Londonderry is now Derry

  • dr1141tube

    Of course, i totally agree with you, I wasn't arguing the fact. I call it Derry myself, saying I live in that county, but I was just explaining to those who didn't know what to call it the "correct" and "official" term, but to be honest, nobody really cares that much. If they do they're a fool. In fact, its only in the North that its "officially" called Londonderry, in the Republic, the roadsigns all read "Derry" and nobody argues that. My point - who cares? Call it what you like!

  • It's Derry and Doire originally. Béidh ár lá linn.

  • im from sligo and i think more people should speak gaelic.

    The our father in Gaelic is.

    Ár nAthair atá ar neamh Go naofar d'ainm

    Go dtaga do ríocht Go ndéantar do thoil ar an talamh Mar a dhéantar ar neamh

    Ár n-arán laethúil tabhair dúinn inniu

    Agus maith dúinn ár bhféicha

    Mar a mhaithimidne dár bhféichúina féin

    Agus ná lig sinn i gcathú

    Ach saor sinn ó olc

    Slán agus ádh mór ort.

  • I want to learn gaelic but it's very hard without help from a native speaker. Anyway, I won't give up :)

  • If you can spare some money and want to learn irish gaelic, check out rosetta stone =) It's helped me learn a lot, including the irish basics (I'm learning that now)

    Slán :)

  • please for the love of god keep our language alive!!

    Go mbeannai Dia duit

  • Much Respect from County Derry

  • that's soooo sweet. <3

  • Good bless your mum/grandma. What a beautiful, gentle lady. It was like watching my own beloved mom. Blessings upon you and yours for posting this. My mom is Irish and my dad is Greek and in typical American fashion I speak neither.

  • teachill - I find it odd that you were taught 'for thyne is the kingdom the power and the glory' ending in Irish, as its not typically used. My our father ends mar mhaithimid dár bhféichiúnaithe féin.

    Agus ná lig sinn i gcathú,

    ach saor sinn ó olc. Amen - thanks for the rest of it

  • Bless her she seems like a nice lady. Her smile is priceless

  • wow...just wow...

    the lord will teach us respect, and a lot of other things...and while you listen, one must be thankful to be able to listen to the old folks :) lots of respect from germany:) god bless ya´ll!!!

  • My goodness! You never know who you'd see on YouTube. God bless you my dear Rose. It was as good as a tonic to see you here. From Your wee friend from County Down.

  • My Mum was thrilled to hear from you. Thanks for the comments.

    D

  • Hi dr1141tube, so this honorable lady with the priceless smile is your mom?!!! A truly AWESOME and beautiful lady she is,....i'm subscribed to ya for sometime now, only today, i read a comment of yours, posted 3 mos. ago, that she's your mom! =)

  • THis is sooo cool. My respects to your Nan/ Mum!

  • I know the Lord is smiling when He hears this precious woman saying His prayer.

  • I remember saying this in Primary school

  • I agree :)

  • How sweet she is

  • Yes, she is! :o)
