  • The reason one was made in irish is because its one of the official languages of the EU. There were versions made in Basque and Catalan also as they're official languages too. Welsh and other celtic languages are national languages but are not officially languages of the EU (eg welsh has official status in Wales but not in any other part of the UK). Is maith liom an advert seo. Té mé ag caint Béarla san obair agus ar an teilifís, mar caint Gaeilge sa Teaglach.

  • @johnmasterson86 an bhfuil tú ina chonaí i ngaeltacht?

  • The two women speaking Irish Gaelic sounded American, the first in 0:03 & more pronounced by the other woman in 0:20. It's unfortunate a small percentage of Irish people are native Gaelic speakers or had learned it later in life. I ponder if the next EU parliament elections may have TV spots in other Celtic languages: Manx (presumably extinct), Welsh, Breton, Cornish (a small number are fluent in Cornwall) & Scottish Gaelic. How come there isn't a spot in Welsh? Wales is a bilingual country. +

  • @demikede1 Actually they don't sound American at all. By wrongfully calling Irish 'Irish Gaelic', you do.
