So do the Irish think that pic related is a transexual or something?

Ireland is as Irish as Mexico is Nahuatl.
It's a meme. Irish are Anglos in denial
Adrian Richardson
far far more people are of Gaelic ancestry proportionally than of Nahua ancestry in Mexico
Christian Powell
I'm talking about spoken language, not ancestry.
Usually your language forms your identity, not your actual ancestry. Turks are a famous example. Irish are the rare exception.
Luke Kelly
kobieta comes from word kob which means pigsty
William Cruz
Irish language is part of our identity in a manner of speaking, the ambivalence toward it is part of being Irish. I'm very critical about the lazy nationalism we have though, everybody here likes to be "proud to be Irish" but balks at the idea of doing some that takes effort
Andrew Edwards
Syl, sylgojmag.
Why do Anglos disrespect their females so much?
Daniel Walker
Is Kvinna/Kvinne/Kvinde etymologically connected to Queen?
Michael Butler
It comes from Old English. The original word was Cwene, which meant woman. It's Germanic but it doesn't come from the Nordic languages.
Kevin Lewis
Actually from looking at Wiktionary it seems they do both come from the same Proto-Germanic root.

Yeah, and it's also surprisingly related to slavic žena. Kv just shifted to zh sound during the process of palatalization of slavic languages
Nathaniel Bennett
It's actually mna, but if you're talking in specific contexts you'd say bean (pronounced ban). E.g. "women of the house" (i.e. stay at home mom) is "bean an tí" (same with house, too; house is usually "teach" but in this context it's tí (pronounced tee)).
Irish is a fucking dumb and confusing language like that.

Fräulein is also considered sexist now
But not as offensive as Weib
Luis Nelson
how the fuck do you call a wife if "jena" is already taken.
Ryder Torres
Donna derives from Domina, old Latin for "Lady". Madonna, in fact, meant "My lady".
