Lots of food for thought in the book. Manchán, in my view, is a national treasure, his optimism and exuberence in matters of langage and tradition are such a breath of fresh air.

I want to learn Esperanto for anarchist reasons.

I want to keep up my French because I've invested so much into it and I love it.

I want to learn Irish to connect with my ancestors in a very witchy, historic ways.

I want to continue learning ancient Greek for scholarly purposes and philosophical fun times.

Even me, the prince of ADHD, cannot manage this hunger.

Irish Times: "Irish replaces French as second most popular language in North’s A-levels - Optional Irish available in only 35 per cent of schools but held firm as other languages declined"

The DUP are going to love this - not. 😂

Why is the of Peig Sayers so frequently cited as a cause for dislike of the ?

Colm O Bróin makes the case that the much maligned book should be reconsidered

Might the book be a useful scapegoat for the shame, guilt or sorrow some feel for the lack of proficiency?

There are a few words in the English language that originate in Irish. These include boreen.
Originally, the Irish word for road, bóthar, meant a path wide enough for 2 cows. A bóithrín was a little cow track.

Oh, and! I forgot to mention that Litreach now caters to regional dialects too. Forgot to mention that earlier. So that's nice. :)
