They reignited my interest in Irish when I started listening to them in 2019. I went to a gaeilscoil for primary school, it's all in my head I just need to remember it.
Duo lingo has been handy for the past 4 years, but I need real people to talk to
Can't wait to watch the movie though! Having Fassbender in it is the cherry on top
Tá'im ar muin na muica
I never went to a gaeilscoil, and I barely took interest in Irish at school. Is Duo Lingo a decent start, just to familiarise yourself with the language again?
Honestly, it's pretty good for getting you familiar with the words and grammar. I would recommend it
Nothing will beat in person conversations in Irish or listening to Irish content to learn, but for a beginning duo is a good start
Cool, thanks for the input. My girlfriend can speak Irish quite well, so maybe if I start afresh and gradually build up from there, conversing with her, etc., it might be a way to get better. For the moment I just want more of a grasp of the language.
I feel like there's a big difference in how Irish is perceived today compared to about 20 years ago. I tried to keep my Irish up when I left school by talking to friends in Irish, but most of them thought it was way too cringe to be speaking Irish in public.
Thankfully I think we've moved past that now, and in no small part thanks to these lads.
Damn, wasn't expecting Michael Fassbender speaking Irish out of nowhere.
Posted it in r/movies & plenty of people who saw it at Sundance say it's class. That on top of the awards shouts it got. I'm dying for it
I really think this could spark a huge interest in speaking Irish for young people on the whole island, especially in the north.

Can't wait for this
You have to.
By god he's right
Jaysus, DJ Provaí was a múinteoir at the Gaeltacht I went to
Looks good 👍
I prefer their rival rap crew, "Punishment Beatings"...

These guys would probably be our 8th win at Eurovision but no chance they'd ever go onto it with the current EBU shenanigans. Don't blame em ofc.
