Mokong Posted October 28, 2006 Share Posted October 28, 2006 So i decided since the first irish video i did is now my most viewed vlog video and considering i thought it would be my least viewed one i think that qualifies as beating expectations. So i think i should maybe make a few more, and once again i put in english subtitles for those of ye who don't know irish:wink: Also in realation to my "I Believe..." video a few weeks ago, my shirts have arrived http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nqj85F1Wz1A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcj metroid Posted October 28, 2006 Share Posted October 28, 2006 i would have able to understand bits without the subs.I have no respect for the way the language is been taught at schools. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mokong Posted October 28, 2006 Author Share Posted October 28, 2006 Yeah, maybe if they didn't try to drill it into kids more would have more respect for it and our heritage and try to keep it alive. Oh and i just remembered this, here's a short film my sister found the other day about a guy in China who delevops a fascination with Ireland, learns Irish and moves to Dublin, but nobody can understand him, funny yet sad at the same time http://www.atomfilms.com/af/content/yu_ming Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shino Posted October 28, 2006 Share Posted October 28, 2006 I always though you (the Irish) talked Irish on an every day basis and English only as a second language. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The best bit in is: Fella at bar: Jaysus! I never knew oul' Jack could speak Chinese! (cant remember his actual name, so using Jack, please correct me!) I always though you (the Irish) talked Irish on an every day basis and English only as a second language. Nope, sadly it's the other way round Shino.

Roostophe Posted October 28, 2006 Share Posted October 28, 2006 I envy the Irish (and other countries) being able to speak two languages. I always wish I could speak another language, I would love to learn Spanish, or even Gaelic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always wish I could speak another language, I would love to learn Spanish, or even Gaelic. yeah but unfortunately most people never use it again after they finish school, so its pretty much dying at this point (well for the last 40years i guess), so don't think we'd still count as a bi-lingual country Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
