As Gaeilge

One of ways I immersed myself in the Irish culture is by taking Irish language lessons! And, let me say, Irish is really hard to learn. It is in NO way a phonetic language. And, there are all sorts of occasions to add in extra letters into words that don't change the meaning but completely change the sound. CRAZINESS!

While its hard, I really love learning it! So, I thought I'd share some of the basics with you!

	Irish	Phonetic Pronunciation	English
	Maidin mhaith	mojin wye	Good moringin
	Oíche mhaith	ee-ha wye	Good night
	Cad é mar atá tú?	ka-jay mara yaw too	How are you?
	Go maith	guh may	Good
	Le do thoil	leh duh hull	Please
	Go raibh maith agat	gura mye ugut	Thank you
	Slán	slawn	Good bye
	Ádh mór	aw more	Good luck

Bain sult as! Enjoy!
