#Ireland #foodandlit @Catsandbooks

This is an EXCELLENT book, very fun reading.

GingerAntics It depends on what part of Ireland you‘re in. There are parts of the country (small parts, sadly) that are called a Gaeltacht, where the predominant language spoken in the home is Irish instead of English. 4h
AnnCrystal @GingerAntics even while only in a small way, that's still wonderful 😉💝. 2h
GingerAntics @AnnCrystal it really is. Another fun fact about keeping the Irish language alive. The places with the most Irish language learners are The US, Canada, and Australia. The diaspora have taken up what was taken from our ancestors and will hopefully keep it alive. 1h
AnnCrystal @GingerAntics Truly? That is fascinating! The few times I've heard the Gaeilge language were thanks to TV & movies...don't know how accurate these samples were, but it was truly beautiful.

I want to learn my ancestor's language. A bit difficult, we don't live near the Tohono O'odham Nation, nor the Pascua Yaqui Tribe. I have done a little online research and have learned a handful of words in Oʼodham. The name of my Ancestor's Creator, and “mom.“
