Des Bishop - Léim (Léimigí) Thart [Jump Around as Gaeilge]

[ClareAer]

Well... I feel sad i dont know irish. Was always a think of repressing it

[ygodyme]

im irish and i can tell you irish isnt a dead language but its is dieing :(

[Oisin34]

GOA = Gáire Ós Ard XD

[DarraOps]

haha are irish teacher is teachin us dis in first yer for de craic! :D

[ch26ification]

Níos fearr ná an leagan Béarla, sea? ;D

[bikizuzu]

The fact is that we're trying to KEEP the Gaelige language from dying...the vast majority of Irish people don't 'naturally' (natively) speak the language anymore, which is why it's taught in school.

My Irish is deplorable, and after spending half my life in the US, I'm trying to re-learn it as an adult. Mad props to Des, Yank or otherwise, for keeping our language alive through music. We may all speak different languages, but music can unite us all.

[MarisaHoare]

Im flueeeennt boooooyyyyy

[BLACKFLANIGAN]

This joint is Tight!!!! Oakland, Ca up in here wit County FERMANAGH!

[TheConorward]

Nach í an Ghaeilge teanga marbh, mhúin mo mhúinteoir é seo dúinn agus cónaí orainn i mBaile Átha Cliath

Dont roinnt scoileanna mhúineadh go han-mhaith

that means

Irish is not a dead language, my teacher taught us this and we live in dublin

Some schools dont teach it very well

[Kellyyym]

Ceapaim go bhfuil mé i ngrá le Des Bishop :D

[XjekarsX]

irish isnt a dead language!!! its just that its not thought great in primary school so people aren't bothered. irish is an amazing language and people should start to try and speak it cause it comes in handy especially when your on holidays. IS AOIBHINN LIOM GAILGE!!!!IS I AN TEANGA IS FEARR LE FADA!!!!!!!! :)

[CharliesLegoTunes]

Is aoibhinn liom é! Maith an buachaill Des!

[clydelord]

Níl an an ghaeilge marbh !!! irish isnt dead its thriving at the moment the scene is pickin up éire go deo , éireannach chuig an bás

[rlmccoy124]

Responding to 'sligodeathchancer' - We're not just Yanks - we are the children of the Diaspora. We may be citizens of far away places like the US, Canada, New Zealand; but we are still Insular Celtic in spirit. It's said that LANGUAGE is the single most important way in which a culture is transferred. My great-great grandparents on both sides were Gaelic speaking (both Irish and Scots Gaelic.) I'm learning Irish to reconnect with my ancestry.

[PaleSilverMoon]

What is with the Irish people not wanting to learn Irish. I live In Ireland and Im doing higher level for the leaving cert with a lot of foreign people while the most of the Irish do ordinary or foundation. wtf?

[Rachelmichelleduggan]

Iontach Maith!! 

[Emerarsenal]

[eminem4life13]

@eimearr94 gwan kid

[6RFK]

@TheAdrianek12 Dún do chlab,Dún do bhéal, Éist le mo scéal Ní bheidh mé ag éisteacht leis an Gharda Síochána

[PaleSilverMoon]

@TheAdrianek12 Fuck you. And people have to stop speaking it and learning it for it to be dead. So its clearly not. Is t-amadan tu.

[murrayARD09]

4 people need to Léim Thart

[joyster448]

[mrstephenporter]

Ta an t-amhran seo dochreidte

[sligodeathchancer]

im ashamed of a yank speaking fluent Irish :L im Irish and cant speak a line ofit :L

[XCLAR3XO]

@sligodeathchancer Hes actually english, he was born in london and brought up in new york

[sligodeathchancer]

@XCLAR3XO he claims to be from New York ..... but still the majority of the irish cann not speak irish and for a american/english comedian to speak irish in the matter of 6weeks is unreal :L

[XCLAR3XO]

@sligodeathchancer Awh stop! I did it since I was in junior infants and got a b in it in higher level leavin but now two years later I dont remember much at all haha

[PaleSilverMoon]

@sligodeathchancer Hate that! I can, and I'm technically not from Ireland!

[FoolOfGods]

@kristanawheat Playing the 'blame' game is not helpful and the way you've worded your response is uninformed/rude. When the English government 'colonized' Ireland - just as they had Scotland and Wales, they undertook a ruthless cultural, intellectual, social genocide, Statutes of Kilkenny 1366, banned Irish language, dress, society, culture (music, hair styles, symbols) throughout Ireland. Today 10% of Ireland speaks Gaelic, in Scotland the figure is 1.2%. Remember dead people can't talk!

[kristanawheat]

@FoolOfGods WOOW Sooo sorry- loser ass husband replied to this video on my account-sorry bout that Im not irish as my picture actually proves im mexican lol hes the one with irish background and yes he can be ignorant especially when he doesnt follow up on history himself for him to say anything. Came online to find a hater message from nowhere...

[FoolOfGods]

@kristanawheat Right, well, to be honest, I don't check every ones 'channel' details before replying, so I wasn't aware of kristanawheat's background, nationality or ethnicity: on reflection I probably ought to remember that 'La zorra nunca se ve su cola'. My own background is a mixture, much of which I was unaware of until I traveled ... Right or wrong, loser-asses have the right to express their opinion, however as for haters 'A palabras de borracho, oídos de jicarero'. ¡Hasta luego!

[musicman45805]

@sligodeathchancer Learn then! It's a beautiful language... and it's coming back... I'll see to it or die trying.

I am very proud of my heritage. I'm learning it now.

[rosgireland]

@sligodeathchancer Níl sé ró-dhéanach - it's not too late! ;)

[zcst4eva]

@sligodeathchancer Well, it's not like an average american who learned gaelic, he's of irish descent and probably heard it growing up!

[sligodeathchancer]

@sligodeathchancer ive had 19@ reply's to this comment ' and after a year i can officialy Tá buíochas a ghabháil leat Des Bishop le haghaidh an inspioráid a fhoghlaim mo launguge náisiúnta

i only noticed the way he's spelling Tá with the blocks lol. i love speaking irish. this song is amazing

[GatoNegroChatNoir]

Irish is such a beautiful language. Its beauty just hits me whenever I get to hear it after a long while I didnt.

Fáilte ó Iosrael! :D

[jeffhegarty]

We're the ones who should be welcoming you. Do you hear much Irish in Israel (besides when members of the IDF used it as a secret language)?

[GatoNegroChatNoir]

Thank you ^_^

No, I dont hear it at all... In fact, most Israelis are certain that Irish is just English with an accent, or they call it Celtic and think its a dead language.

Wow, I never heard of the IDF using it as a secret language, only about how Herzog tried re-learning it... Can you tell me more about it? =3

[jeffhegarty]

Both of those misconceptions are fairly common. As for my remark about the IDF, it's something I've heard from knowledgable friends, but I haven't been able to source it properly. Chaim Herzog trying to have a go doesn't surprise me, because his father was fluent in it.
