Tá mé as éireann? An bhuil cheist agat?

It might be a silly question, but do most Irish people still speak Irish these days?

 

I'm European, but (obviously) not Irish.

I would like to be Irish, because they are so friendly and don't let work get in the way of pleasure. Plus they drink lots. Oops. I can't because I'm 18 years sober....

Irish is compulsory still in school and I speak both Irish and English but not everyone is fluent in both.

 

We have Irish schools only where we learn everything as gaeilge :thumbsup:

 

Riverdance made everything Irish sexy again so there is a revival of Irish dance, theatre, art, music, poetry etc.

 

I realise that English is the only language to post in - Sorry to the Moderators!! :( :( It won't happen again.

 

Love Moya xxx

 

PS - I am alcoholic so I no longer drink and yes, drinking is still a big pastime here. I do like going to the pub with friends as all pubs do coffee, tea, food.....it is a good place to be but with sobriety on my mind. :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Thank you dear sweet Moya!! Don't worry a bit about this, spend your efforts on your healing and your life situation.  That should be the most important goal for now.

 

Sending love your way.

Tà mé as Éireann chomh maith agus níl aon cheist agam.

Conas atá tú Moya agus cá bhfuil tú ó?

I dunno if I could do that. I have visited Ireland 3 times and sat in many of the pubs there and I noticed that the women there drink more than the men! ;D This was while I was drinking and we were ignorant to the ways of the country, so my hubby kept buying me a pint of ale, not half pint. People looked at us funny like..... :laugh:
