Dunno why but I love this phrase :D

Ruaille buaille!

The Irish language is pretty cool in itself. What annoys me though is the negative attitude that many people have against it.

Then again I cant blame them since successive governments do sfa to redress the way its thought in schools doing it a huge damage.

come to think of it....Jesus Holy, cant wait for these shower to go. Unbelievably incompetent

Article in the Independent today talks about our stance on we are Irish, but mainly not English and that is the sole reason the Irish language is still around. Cos it makes us not English :) I do not know enough to hold a 1 minute conversation. At best I could of managed a 3 minute one once. Maybe in 6th class.

I believe SHE hung up when you used your favourite Irish word -

Any seans of a marcaiocht???:p :D

In those situations, always make sure you have a packet of coiscini in yer pocket, in case you get lucky.:D

Ri-ra agus ruaille buaille!!!

I hear this on the radio most mornings but I've no idea what it means...............nead na fuisoige or something??..:o

otharcarr.

As in An Timpiste essay,
Go tobann, i breap na suile, lig me beic as.
Thainig an otharcarr.

Focal and bolg

Good, harsh sounding words that make the Irish language what it is.

FOCAL cos its sounds like you are telling everyone where to go.

Seriously,,, Irish language is class

Id love to learn Irish fluently,might make it my new years resolution.........for 2007 :D Im busy this year :o
