How is the revival of Irish going on?

Posting in this thread everyday until my Irish rose responds.

great writing

Its probably not going to die now

Yes it will. In a manner of decades it will have lost its native speech communities. It will be kept alive as a hobby and for some ceremonial purposes, much like Latin.

great poem

Sorry pal.

everyone in ulster sounds like a scot to some degree

heres a photo of my foot i accidentally took yesterday while waiting for a philly cheese steak sandwich

At the top is Mio. She is the coolest in the band, she has an awesome voice and she seems pretty chill to hang around with. All in all she has the platonic qualities that suit me well in a partner while still being someone enough like me so I could be friends with her. She is also super cute. Then there is Azusa. She is cute but her personality would get on my nerves from a waifu perspective. I can't handle people who take life to seriously. She's pretty cool though. Then there's Ritsu. She's cool but seems like a lot of energy. She likes to mess around and all of that and I like that in a person. She's platonic tier, but relationship? eh. Yui. What else can I say? She's cute and cool but at the end of the day I'd be her carer. I don't want that. Tsumugi. She's the kind of rich I don't mind. Chill, relaxed and all over cool. Awesome personality. Would be friends with/10. She is super kawaii desu ne~ forgive me it was a joke but, again, a platonic thing. I'd like to be friends with her very much. Obviously the rest of the cast aren't up in the top five, but it goes like this: the fourth, the fifth, the minor fall, the major lift, and all who disagree with me are fucking normies

>everyone in Ulster sounds like a scot to some degree
D-delet this
We're just as irish as y-you!
C-cead mile failte!
S-slainte!
Tiocfaidh ár lá!

...

its honestly more ulster irish influence then scot influence if youre not a pr*d
but to someone from laois who isnt good with accents, i could mistake you for a scot if i didnt know better (which i do now)
its happened before, i thought my teacher from donegal was a scot once.

But seriously, anyone getting fucked off hearing about Nathan Carter?
He's just some twat with a guitar but all the donegal lasses wet their knickers at him

When I go abroad I get mistaken more for American than anything else

ROCK ME MAMMY LIKE WAGON WHEEL

literally never heard of him
literally never heard of anyone though so dont mind me
ulster scots was a huge influence on american english. to me, listening to ian paisley going on about catlickers or whatever i can hear a lot of sounds which sound very similar to an american

Derry seems to have kept most of its habits. Alot of people still pronounce English words as if theyre spelt in irish
>cyar
>hanks (thanks)
And of course
>mucker
Only thing Scottish is haddy and canny
Scottish is basically irish anyway let's be honest

>cyar
what a car?
derry is pretty catholic though right
its just the ulster sound could be mistaken as being scottish you know, ulster irish is closest to scottish after all

Derry is literally different to the rest of the north - it's basically the capital of Donegal

Even Geographically speaking the cityside of the town belongs in inishowen

well its decided

Ulster rightful Scottish land

Haven't had a cigarette since Sunday.

>car
Aye
True, my friend is fluent and he says when he went on some gaelige programme all the Munster lads couldn't understand the Scottish but he didnt have a bother with it cause the dialects are so close

Come and take it you highland niggers

used to be an island that spoke a dialect that was neither irish nor scottish, but thats gone extinct now

It's already ours :^)

Mann? St Kilda?

no here

>tfw best mates from strabane

Did you get a pizza from the asda?

Keep her lit horse

>wan day
Aw wat lad

Did i fuck, walked over to lifford and got a bottle of morgans on the cheap

It will be dead because it will lack a native speech community. This is what linguistic death is in its essence. Even in the Gaeltacht fewer and fewer children are competent Irish speakers and are better characterised as native English speakers than native Irish speakers. If the only people left speaking it are second language speakers then the language is dead.

Shanty spiders laaadd!

gonna get my washing
hope the basement stoner doesnt try to fuck with me

>walked over to lifford and got a bottle of morgans on the cheap
>lifford
>cheap

>Could've just gone to asda

Literally what?

Where are all the Irish people? These are prime after-dinnertime-but-before-bedtime shitposting hours in Ireland.

literally what the fuck is an asda
is it some grocery store ive never heard of

Not really, even "second language speakers" learn it alongside english simultaneously. Theres a gaeltacht in Belfast fer fuck sake.
Its never going away
Were not doing enough for it. Ye should he taught it the minute ye go into school and the teachers should teach all the subjects in Irish. The whole country would be fluent in a generation

What is Google?

this is peak traffic for /éire/
its a small country of 6 million after all

I was using sterling and i was underage. Friend said they were more likely to serve me across the bridge so why not

Lidl used to sell cans in Donegal for the same price as up here

There was of excelsior for 79 cent which was like 45p

I could literally go down with ten quid and buy 20 cans

Dunno lad
this fella is a filthy slav
this fella is half belgian half swiss
and the rest are filthy brits

whats your ma haha

>6 million

saucy is a slav fucker
its swooce thats the slav

I think I could buy 20 cans of piss for a similar price.

Aye, it's been awhile since I've last been to lifford. I've family up there, should go more often.

ah feck 'tis anuddur potehtoh famine

nah that cunt is a slav too. he tries to come off as irish by posting in gaelic the odd time. (he uses google translate)

That piss won't get you drunk though homeboy

...

>posting in gaelic
>gaelic
Triggered

Piss off cunt.

Do your best Trump voice and tell them they have to go back

no one answers though
rude

>gaelige
youve some nerve lad. fucking ignorant cunt

Most of the second language speakers will default to and be better at English, it's hardly going to sustain a native speaking community over multiple generations. The best the current situation can do is breed some creole in 100 years. I would support a proper program of revitalisation but there simply aren't enough competent teachers to do that in one generation, and besides there is far bigger a problem than teaching.

Ironic.


Here's your (You).

Am i wrong? Thats what we were taught in school

Every eire thread turns into a big rant about the state of the Irish language

Get over it it's fucking boring me to death

Its only fer a few minutes then we move on to more important matters, like if Dublin is ever gonna be good at hurling

Can't wait to get LC results lads. Anyone else waiting?

then initiate a discussion about something else you fucking bender

What are you going to study?

Hi lads while were on the subject.
Is duolingo any good for learning Irish do yes know?

Science hopefully, what about you?

no it's shit

I'm currently studying pharmacology.

It's alright for the beginner, but it's not enough on it's own for learning the language.
