There is 12 learn Irish lessons cd with the Irish independent this Saturday and Sunday. The show is hosted by Liam Ã¡ Maonlai and  are really good lessons to help learn common Irish expressions. Liam is a musician and songwriter and general Irish cultural guru, His music can be found over at his record label Rian records.

Also if you have not already heard of this podcast. Conn  is the godfather of podcasting in the irish language.   An timeall has been going since 2004 and is the premier Irish podcast, highly recommended

There is an oral help guide over at RTE, which would be useful for any student doing there exams.

I recommend Irish channel on You Tube,if you prefer viewing which can be found over here

Finally will definitly have those audio from the oral exams next week,so will see you then!!!

Going to be hopefully doing some help shows on the Irish oral exams. Have found some good links here in skool.ie and also this one for other types of grammar here at daltai. Hopefully have them up posted some time this  week.

Sinne Fianna Fáil
Atá faoi gheall ag Éirinn
Buíon dár slua
Thar toinn do ráinig chughainn
Faoi mhóid bheith saor
Sean-tír ár sinsear feasta
Ní fhágfar faoin tiorán ná faoin tráill
Anocht a théam sa bhearna baoil
Le gean ar Ghaeil chun báis nó saoil
Le gunna scréach faoi lámhach na bpiléar
Seo libh canaig Amhrán na bhFiann



Soldiers are we
Whose lives are pledged to Ireland
Some have come
From a land beyond the wave
Sworn to be free
No more our ancient sireland
Shall shelter the despot or the slave
Tonight we man the "gap of danger"

In Erin's cause, come woe or weal
'Mid cannon's roar and rifles' peal
We'll chant a soldier's song

I wrote a blog yesterday.
Scríobh mé blog inné

I filled the blog with information about the podcast.
Líon mé an blog le mórán eolas faoin podcast
 
I put lots of pictures up on the blog.
Chuir mé a lán pictiúrí suas ar an mblog

I took information from different places
Thóg mé a lán eolais ó áiteanna diffriúla
A lot of people read the blog.
Léigh a lán daoine an blog
 
I took some pictures off the blog because they were mildly pornographic
Bhain mé roinnt pictiúrí den blog toisc go raibh said cineálta pornagraifeach

There is a lack of  podcasts teaching the Irish language. Throughout these podcast shows it is hoped to focus on language in a contemporary sense. The podcast hopes to take the form of a weekly show, and be a conversation through verbs, about relative topical material. These are the sort of conversations you might be sharing in a pub. It us hoped to draw on the expertise of others and when they listen in they could offer there advice.
 
Learn4fun believe that there many Irish people who would like to brush up on there skills, and use as Gaelige in a more conversational context. This is not exercised as much in school, The aim of this  project is to develop Irish learnt and enhance conversational abilities.

I bought a lot of Guinness before the match between Ireland and Australia.

Cheannaigh mé a lán Guinness roimh an gcluiche idir Éireann agus an Ostráil

 

It started at 4 o’clock in Lansdowne road.

Thosaigh sé ag a ceathar a chlog

 

We woke up early with excitement.

Dhuisíomar go luath le sceitimíní áthais orainn

 

The match finished at 6.

Chríochnaigh an chluiche ag a sé

 

They played well.

D’imir said go maith

           

I got up the next day with a headache.

D’éirigh mé ar maidin dár gcionn le tinneas cinn mór orm

 

I opened the office door.

D’oscail mé doras an oifig

 

My boss told me not to drink too much.

Dúirt mo mhaistir liom gan an iomarca a ól

 

We all learned a lesson that day .

D’fhoghlaimíomar go léir ceacht an lá sin.
