[marco2gill]

tá mise nan leabhart gaeilge ta me in eireann

[kristanawheat]

Do another video in Irish I'm learning Irish as well I live in the States.

[weboggs]

you should do a video explaining that Gaelic is not Irish, that it is scottish. and that irish is what you are speaking which is Gaeilge

[hebrideanwolfdogs]

De tha dol mo eirenach brathair? :) Tha mi a fuarrach an Alba (Steòrnabhagh) agus tha mi a geaousachach gaelic ne Alba, Tha e Uabhasach (similar) go Gaelic ne Eeranach. Tha mi duillich mo grammar* e cearr. Gaelic Gu Brath :D

[kevinubaldoherrera]

Maith an fear!

Hearing the lanugage being spoken with such fluency is amazing. Makese me want to do it in college. Where did you learn it?

[GooogleGirl]

i've studied irish since i was about four. constructing simple sentences is still difficult. our system is terrible!

[ManxyBoy1]

Just to let you know that there's a new course called "Teastas Eorpach na Gaeilge" (European Certificate in Irish) and there's learning centres in London, Paris and New York. That's probably where Megan learned it.

[bheadh]

Ta an ceann seo go maith. Ni raibh an ceann eile. Ta tu ag foghlaim Gaeilge! Ta se an-thabhachtach inniu. Ta me Eireannach-Meirchanach comh maith. A ra rud eigin anseo.

[gollywan]

You're alright, kid. Ought to come to the US and teach the plastic paddies over here how to speak Gaelic.

[PG90210]

It really pisses me off that this is the first video that comes up when you enter "gaeilge" into the search bar!!

But I suppose I have to give you kudos for trying!!

go n-eirí leat agus bhí an físéan eile...nuair a bhí tú ag cannadh... an-greannmhar ar fad!!

[Glgebhrste]

Tá an ceann seo ar fhad níos fearr na an céad físeán a rinne tú! Tá tú ag feabhsú! Maith thú féin - Tá súil agam go mbeidh an 3ú ceann ann ar ball!

[chainedhearts1]

i really want to learn gaelic, and im stuck in the retarded south, where hardly anyone knows that the irish have their own language, does anyone know where i could learn to be fluent on the internet? or some kind of lesson deal i could buy?

[animalunaris]

Go to Amazon and search for books and CDs on there, there are millions, honestly. Also, if you're anywhere near London I'm sure there are Irish classes there, if not, maybe you could go up there once in a while to meet-ups?

[Glgebhrste]

@chainedhearts1

Buntús Cainte is a good mostlz Audio course with a booklet.

[lovelytackles]

buaile bos, ar fad!

[roRoIrish]

ta se go maith ag labhairt gaeilge, dun do bheal na daoine ag ra go bhfuil se go dona...gabhaim nil sibh abalta ag labhairt gaeilge

ta do fhis go maith

[GreyWhiteBlue]

@roRoIrish Amen to that!!!

[milogatti]

I lived in eire for a while, near a gaeltacht area, but I never, never managed to learn anything useful. So: 1st of all respect: irish isn't known to be easy, on the opposite... 2nd: c'mon, it does sound awful...

[robbfitzpatrick]

how ignorant of you to say,

[anelfintheforest]

You think? I have to learn it in school!

Smaoinigh tu? Have me mearn ar scoil! Ta bron orm, mo gaeilge broch

[DarkProject]

Thnx for this video, i actually never knew irish was so diffrent from the other european languages.

[Ron304]

Dia dhuit! Ronail O'Dughaill is ainm dom. Ta leathnach seo go hiontach ar fad! Big bula bos!

Slan agus deas buaile leat.

[Kyasurin018]

Wish I was fluent in Gaelic. -__- Okay, since everyone here seems to be fluent in Gaeilge, can ANYONE tell me what "wildfire" is in Gaeilge? T_T

[taibshe]

maith thú a chara. Tá bród orm físeanna mar seo a fheiceáil ar an t-idirlíon.

[GreyWhiteBlue]

Tá an gaeilge níos fearr agat ná an chuid is mó daoine in éirinn ar fad.

Now, forgive ME if MY irish is not very good.

[ChuckyJJCthulhu]

Nice job. Gaeilge should be Ireland's main language, for TV, in schools, offices.

Whereas, English is increasingly useless as England, N. America sink in debt (and I'm an American).

I work internationally, the two main global languages of future are Chinese and German- low debt/high-tech, German a Euro hub. (With Japanese, Spanish, Hindi in 2nd group.)

So Ireland could have Irish as main language, replace English with German for inter-European use- less cost, German is far more useful!

[BlueEyedMann]

Highly improbable that modern countries will just change their languages. Having English is very adventitious to the Irish. And since the eu expanded, English usage has increased greatly, which the French are not happy about. English is likely to become the EU's language for politics and business. There was something in the economist about this.

+ my Irish wouldn't be good enough to function in the modern world, like most Irish people.

[Oljanna]

I´m german myself . Honestly I´ve never met a person who said "Oh, you´re german? So lets continue in german". All of them switched or sticked with the english. Although some of my friends are quite fluent in german - regarding complicated topics we switch to english. A lot of german university master study paths are held in english. The thesises are written in english. Maybe a main sign that noone over here believes that our language might be a main business language out there some day?!

[Glgebhrste]

@Oljanna

Weiss ich doch- Deutsche wöllen NUR auf Englisch reden wenn ich sage dass ich Irlisch bin obwohl ich deutsch spreche- ebenfalls für Leute aus GB/USA - ich verweigre- aber bin die Ausnahme. Ich bin der meinung dass Deutsche eine Inferioiit'ätskmplex haben bezüglich der Englischen Sprache & Anglo-US Kultur.- So was passiert in Frankreich Italien oder Russland ganz selten- kann auch Russisch sprechen und hab NIEMALS "Englisch ist die Weltsprache" in Moscau gehort- In DL doch ganz oft

[Oljanna]

@Glgebhrste

Wenn ich jemals jemandem begegnet wäre, der selbst auch in Deutsch so selbstbewusst ist, wie du, dann würde ich auch auf Deutsch weiter machen. Leider ist das wirklich die Ausnahme. Bisher habe ich leider niemanden getroffen, der z.B. Deutsch in der Schule gelernt hat und sich in Deutsch und nicht Englisch unterhalten hätte.

Aber Ausnahmen, wie du, bestätigen die Regel ;)

Mir ist es egal... notfalls spreche ich auch Gebärdensprache. Hauptsache die Kommunikation klappt.

[CrazyPianoPassion]

@ChuckyJJCthulhu actually in Ireland there is a community (I forget the name of it) where the people are only allowed to Gaeilge. If you live there, work there, go to school there... etc. It's actually very interesting- it's just another way to keep the language alive! And to work in Ireland (anywhere in Ireland) you have to know Gaeilge)

[katekakes]

nice

[Kurdlov]

0:31, you forgot to say Grammadach again :P

[LarryOToole123]

Maith an bhuachail. gaeilge deas líofa. Tá sé cruinn agus ceart. Bí ag caint a bhuachail.

[sirchristian12]

Gaeilge. I love it. It sounds very beautiful.

Beautiful language I think.

 I like how it sounds. It's great.

I am learnin it. I really want to speak Gaeilge really bad.

hehe

[separatesix]

SPUDFUCKER!

[MeGaN12234]

Dia duit!..Chuaigh mé go dtí Gaelscoil agus is brá liom gaeilge!..Tá do gaeilge an mhaith!..

[sutmae1]

Shwmae, I personally have never learned any Irish though I have studied a small amount of Scottish Gaelic. Shwmae is a greeting in Cymraeg (Welsh) which is the Celtic language that I'm focusing on right now, but you'd be surprised how widespread Celtic laguages are. There's a professor that I know teaching at CSUB (California State University, Bakersfield) who teaches in addition to Middle Welsh and occasionally Scottish Gaelic he also teaches Irish in the Mojave desert (AKA Middle of Nowhere)

[ProFalconite]

Leaving cert is coming up next school year.

So i've been watching as many videos as I can and will only talk in Irish in person so I can get ready for the Orals :­D

Thanks for making these videos!

[macsiurtan]

Dia duit!, Is mise macsiurtan cad e mar ata tu? Slan anois! go raibh maith agat

[SaigheadBhriste]

Go hiontach, coimeád an obair maith suas. Bheadh suim agat ar Daragh O'Tuama, láithreoir a dhéanann clár as Gaeilge darbh ainm "Splanc" ar Newstalk106 gach oíche Aoine óna deich a chlog chuig mheanoíche. Agus is beag nár bhain "Rock ar aghaidh" léim asam!

[Bowietastic]

I was wearing head phones listening to this last night and it gave me quite a shock, to put it politely! Good work though, I salute you!

[babyfran05]

you are wicked smart. that's a terrible hard language to learn

[animalunaris]

Really, no language (at least Indo-European) should be much harder than any other to learn, especially if you start young enough.

[xxRebelxxFitz]

Not really! (Well, I suppose I have been learning it for 11 years) But it isn't THAT hard!!...Is it?

[paiseanfaisean]

Dia dhuit! Tá do chuid gaeilge ar fheabhas! Tá muid ag lorg imirceoirí atá in Éireann a labhraíonn gaeilge le haghaidh clár teilifíse ar TG4. Má tá suim agat, glaoigh orainn go luath ag (091) 569142.

[svenh78]

We learn Irish in Oslo as well! Woho, just another reason to justify Guinness consumption and bagpipe doting

[Tostig68]

it's de uilleann pipes you want!

[antoconno]

Tá Gaeilge maith agat. Fairplé.

[annamaudebug]

Thanks...great

[deargciarog]

Don't be surprised that folks watch your vids. The special thing is that you bother to put subtitles in for learners which is very considerate. There are US classes that can be referenced by region (google daltai to check it out).

I live in Florida and being a casual learner I suffice with free language software (google byki which stands for Before You Know It) spoken from a Connamara speaker they say.

Keep 'em coming!

[FallenForever]

btw...you speak beautifully

[FallenForever]

ya ya

give your american view

I was born there

so get yours right

and dont give me that I know this

crap. you know you looked it up.

[BelovedBitterSea]

The first of your Irish vids was also the frst I watched of your stuff. I know for me the reason was that there was a vid in Gaeilge under the Director's Videos and you were under the related vids of that video. I originally clicked on it because you didn't look like the average Gaeilge speaker, so I was interested to hear what that was about. I'm also interested in the language in general.

[Whisperhound]

Your irish is pretty good.....You might just wanna use it alot more....btw i only knew irish then i came to australia....well when i was learning english i found it easier to remember...if i started thinking in it.because you obviously know the irish, dnt arrange sentence entirely like the english...so thinking in irish might help and...idk involving it more often.

[frolickingassassin]

go away

[wowzer1200]

ta tu go hiontach!is brea liom an fisean seo!ur deadly at irish!keep it up!i love ur videos!well done!im from ireland and im in 1st yr going in2 2nd year so ive been doing it 4 about 8 or 9 years!but i hardly ever use it out of school!da ends kinda scary tho!xXxXxX

[murrmirr]

im not going to be last one also!

[FallenForever]

irish is not a language

its called gaelic jeeeesh

[weskos]

Before you "jeeeesh", take the time to find out your facts. "Irish" IS what the language is currently called in Ireland. Gaelic (Gaidhlig) is an acceptable, neutral term for the Scottish Celtic language in Scotland, but most people in Ireland will find the term 'Gaelic' somewhat distasteful when refering to their language, as it has been marginalised in the past. Most people call the language "Irish". It is called "Gaeilge" in Irish.

[bobmon54]

Thanks for the info. I actually had wondered why an what the connections were to Scotts. I also think it best not to insult the people you are trying to learn the culture and language of. Nice post. I'll leave with a question. If you are 3/4 Irish born in USA do you have to like Notre Dame football? Go Colorado!

[murrmirr]

i lost from my life 4.19 second.

[MokongX3M]

I always find it funny when people say this, if you didn't like the video, why did ya watch all of it?

Or even bother to take the time to leave a comment?

[MmmmGreenBalls]

im iriah been leaning it for 12years juniors till 3rd nd i still had to luk at da subtiles fior da hole thing lol.....im special.......AND I EARLY PISSED MY PANTS AT DA END OF IT FUCKIN SCARED ME LOL........

[MokongX3M]

haha, sorry about that... you'll be happy to know you wouldn't be the first anyway :P

[pronsiasisdman]

[MokongX3M]

I'm Irish ;)

[redindygo]

Hey cool a filipino who can speak irish!!! I want to learn gaelic too!!!

[MokongX3M]

Thanks, well i'm sure there's books and tapes and stuff you can buy on the net, try Amazon . com i think i saw some stuff there once

[MissyPatAnswer]

I took this college class in Ventura in 85 on The History of English. We had to pick a language and study it a bit and present a speech. I chose Irish. Also, later I got an Irish CD from the Lansing, MI library and was trying to learn a bit hoping I could understand some of my Clannad CD... anyway, I thought it was so sweet that my grandmother's name meant #1 in Gaelic - Elma...

[gogziey]

'grammar' = 'gramadach'

'greannmhar' = 'funny'

lmao still good though. well done ^.^

táim saghas bródúil asat lol

[lorgain2]

Maith tHu a Mhic, you are brilliant.

[snolge]

[MeMyselfMyMusic]

AHHHH its gr8 2 c u makin an effrt bt UR CONTEXT/GRAMMER IS REALLY BAD!!

[Rodge78]

[smonkeygirl]

ur gramour is go hailin!!

[shaunasheehan]

TA TU GO H-IONTACH, IS DOIGH LIOM GO BHFUIL TU Daoine eireannach,

[saloli]

its amazing to see this side of the irish, a philipino-irishman! you hear alot about irish-american here in the US, but this was a first for me. i think its beautiful that youre an irish speaker. there are many stereotypes out there and you busted them wide open! irish language study in the US is fairly widespread. i live in the southeast US. there are lots of people here of irish & scottish heritage. we have a weekly class that meets using a variety of sources to study the language. Blessed Be!

[lugh100]

You are a person of light and warmth. Never let the world change the wonderful guy you are. Maith tu. Le gra

[TheLittleRussian]

Strange. I was sure that Irish has rolling R.

Anyway, you fill me with pride. Keep it this way. Maybe there is still hope for the Irish language.

[borntoserve23]

THIS was COOL... I just returned to america from Dungarvan, Ireland in last month and plan to move to Ireland has been my dream ever since I was 14 years old, to live there and and merry and Irish women... I want to Learn Irish and have watched all of your videos in Irish... I bought a book while in Waterford to help my self learn Gaelic... any sugestions?

Dungarvan, in county waterford

[KBTButtercup]

Its pretty sad that im Irish and have to look at the subtitles every now and then. Im so bad at speaking Irish, makes me wish I had of showed up to class every now and then..

[JoeHarte]

Ar fheabhas a chara! Is iontach é daoine a fheiceáil ag labhairt na Gaeilge ar an idirlíon. Tá do Ghaeilge an-mhaith. Go n-éirí leatsa!

[osuil]

thanks

 slan agat

[homieof2006]

maith tu rugadh me an san gaeltacht imuigheo ach ta me i newyork anois ta me go maith ag caint i ngaeilge ach nil me go maith ag scriobh maith tu

[MoSexpistolsfo]

I love listing to your video. Its different... i have been interested in the language for some time... Great Job.

[msnguy16]

ahh.. were all celts lol

[msnguy16]

i only know a few scottish gaelic words like..

ciamar a tha thu? - how are you?

tha mi gu math - i am well

its probably pronounced differently though..

[MokongX3M]

ah that actually looks very similar and probably pronounced similar too, i think i'm due a new Irish vid soon i might mention that.

In irish the two phrases you gave would be

Conoas a tá tú - how are you?

tá mé go maith - i am well

[msnguy16]

can u understand scottish gaelic??

[MokongX3M]

i never heard it spoken, i've heard a few words are similar but it would be a whole other language so doubtful

[animalunaris]

I have heard fluent Scottish Gaelic speakers says that they do understand Irish a bit so maybe it depends on your fluency or dialect?

Sabhal Mor Ostaig on Skye do week long teaching holidays in the spring/summer where you can go and learn Scottish for Irish speakers'. Not too expensive either. They have a website if you google it.

I love watching your vids, I finish uni this year and after that I'm learning Scottish Gaelic at Sabhal Mor Ostaig (distance learning).

[katemossfan]

Cén scoil an freastail tú ar?? Brón orm muna bhfuil mo gaeilge có-maith.. táim direach i blian a haon!! Bhí mé an-sasta gur rinne daoine físeán as gaeilge MAITH THÚ..s/a (scríobh arís)

[MokongX3M]

my primary school was a Gael Scoil that's were i learnt it, but then secondary was a regular english school and although i took higher level irish all the way through i still lost a lot of it cuz i wasn't speaking it regularly enough

[animalunaris]

How old are you now?

[MokongX3M]

23 at time of typing this

[gerbasher7]

@MokongX3M sorry to be an arse chief, as is obvious by my syntax im a scots born irish descendant. looking to learn the MITHER TONG(sorry scots dialect of english.). which means Mother tongue, the language i want to learn is irish(obv) so i can get my niece(and nephew as of 2 weeks ago) into an AS gaeilge Scoil. if you are are aware of any informatuion that is available for adult learners in the Leinster area(wll OBV accept classes JUST outside Leinster) And god bless you!

[hebrideanwolfdogs]

@gerbasher7 lots of gaelic medium schools in scotland to! especially in the outer hebrides... its almost identical to me :D

[ruadhani]

@MokongX3M Maith thú as an bhfíseán seo as Gaeilge. Tá sé go hiontach. Is maith liom do mhion-gháire. Cén chaoi a d'fhéadfaimis daoine eile a spreagadh chun físeáin a thaifeadadh i nGailege?

[StevieMcKnightLewis]

hi

im french

i 've learnt english

before writing this

so, now i'm trying to learn irish

but that's so difficult

how could i learn ?

[cjknmusic]

bonjour! je suis irlandais mais aussi je parle francais, et bien sur, irlandais! je pense que irlandais est tres dificile pour apprendre. mais si vous voulez etudier l'irlandais je pense que il y a du sites du Web!

[StevieMcKnightLewis]

oui c'est sur, en fait depuis la dernière fois j'ai acheté un livre de poche "l'irlandais" et c'est cool maintenant je sais quelques expressions

slan go foill

[MatIrish]

ceapaim go labhríonn níos mó daoine Gaeilge lasmuigh do Éire ná a labhríonn taobh istigh

Ba mhaith a rá Comhghairdeachas agus go raibh maith agat as an físeáin seo a dheanamh coimead é suas

[mickk3]

it would be cool of you to give us an Irish lesson.

[Orlikins]

Maith thú. "Mol an óige agus tiocfidh siad" mar a deirtear :)

[mangaire1]

Comhghairdeachas & go raibh maith agat

Tá sé go haoibhinn Gaeilge a chloisint ar an suíomh seo

[duanetje]

meh i speak french , dutch , german , english

perfect to survive in Europe

[spokk2]

There's survival, and then there's passion. With those 4 languages you mentioned you could do more than survive in Europe, don't take them for granted. As Mokongx3m has shown us, language is about more than survival. Culture, identity, adventure even - it can open doors.

[georgiapea]

Wow, good for you for still speaking as gaeilge. I love Irish and I wish I could speak it. I studied at UL for a year and took it there but don't have much. oh well. Go raibh maith agat a mokongx3m

[bjb007]

Glad to see someone more fluent than just feigning it with a spoken rendition of "Baidin Fhielimi" Good Work ---

[MGB1000]

I wish I knew 3 languages. That is cool.

[MokongX3M]

technically i "should" know 4, i've taken French in school from age 10 to 17... but I still can't speak it, i've also tried to learn Tagalog (Filippine) my mothers language but that not too good either.. i guess irish was easy to pick up cuz i learned it from age 4 and it just came natrual, its harder to learn when your older

[MGB1000]

Thats great. I tried learning spanish but its too hard when you get older, my son is learning it pretty good. When I hear all those words, I think "no entienda" LOL, I hope that is the correct way to say that.

[spokk2]

My 2 (euro)cents: I've lived in France for 4 years, had the chance to study French at university. Now work with Swedes and am learning their language. When I was in Paris I studied Irish at "The Wild Geese" pub at République metro, but unfortunately my teacher passed away, Sean O'Connail was his name. Go raibh maith agat for the videos, is mise sasanach but that's neither here nor there - maybe I'll make a vid too :) How do you do the subs?

[MokongX3M]

use windows movie maker and a lot of time and patience

[conzer16]

A Fhranklin, caithfear rá gur rud iontach é an Ghaeilge a chloisint uait, ar Youtube! Feicfidh mé thú san RDS!

[MokongX3M]

cheers dude, and i'll see you in the Wii Boxing ring on the 10th, haha
