I got to try out my Gaelic on a native of Limerick today 3 years ago

Cad e mar a ta tu? (Belfast)-vs. “Con as a ta tu?” (Limerick)

He didn’t like my Northern Irish accent. Didn’t think it was Irish. Ha.

At least I got to hear him say “how do you do” in a Southern Irish dialect.

I have at last met someone in the area 4 years ago

Now I have been able to speak Gaelic with a native speaker, and there are a few more, at a pub in the city. I met a fellow who comes from Derry, tends bar.

Now I’d better get some sleep, or I won’t be able to learn and retain any more. Oiche maithe!

Part of my re-organization is to find my Irish books 4 years ago

including my folk tales and sagas.

Learning Gaelge 4 years ago

I’ve been using two programs, the one at BBC North Ireland, on Blas, and one from the maths profs at U. of Belfast. It’s going. But I need some people to practice with.
