By popular demand, here's the Irish Language forum. Your front-line moderator is avanutria.
Enjoy!
Enjoy!
Re: Yet another service by your friends at C&F Corporate
I thought it was C&F Enterprise, as the current lingo goes.
However, I'm a rank beginner at the Irish language, and I'm looking forward to this Irish Language forum.
Thank you, Dale!

Great, this forum's going to make even less sense than the one about Flanges

Here's all of the Irish I know. "Would one of you lads pour me a wee glass of guiness?"
"Wake up your bones,
Tune up your drones,
Let flee that heavenly tone."
Tune up your drones,
Let flee that heavenly tone."
Re: Yet another service by your friends at C&F Corporate
I purchased a self-teaching course called Irish on Your Own. It came with cassette tapes. It seemed pretty good the few times I used it. I would enjoy learning more about Irish Gaelic.

If this forum could be incomprehensible, then just wait until the "old" Irish script gets used, the one with the dots over certain vowels!chrisoff wrote:Great, this forum's going to make even less sense than the one about Flanges :D

P.S. I'm hoping that's the polite thank-you that I think it is. Dale, if I just called you something horrible, I do apologize.

No, no. He's questioning your ability to go do Chinese mathematics, and calling it a fad.

Peeplj said "you're very, very good."

Seo duit! (hands tin-titan a virtual pint).
"Irish on Your Own" is a very good starter program. We'll be more than happy to help you supplement it.

I'm mostly Welsh (as all good Joneses are). I'm quite handy at languages and have always wanted to learn Welsh...no time...no time.
Kudos to the Irish (and C&F) for what they're doing to preserve their glorious mumblings.
