I think it's really sad that Irish (and Celtic langauges in general) are dying. cry We should start a movement to make them popular again! surprised

I mean, unless I'm not mistaken, Hebrew was dead for more than a thousand years except for in prayers and the Torah, but it was actually revived by Jewish scholars! So who's to say that we wouldn't be able to revive Celtic languages?

I agree, I don't honestly know the language but from what I have seen of I rish gaelic it is quite beautiful and it would be a shame to lose it.

I agree! It's so sad! Especially with the wonderful, beautiful Irish language...
That about Hebrew is right. Maybe same can happen to Irish, how knows? We must keep hoping.

I've only noticed the word "lass" in books, usually old ones as well. James Joyce used it quite a bit, but that doesn't make it, umm, spoken. XP

I have never, ever, ever heard anyone say those phrases.

I think that's just Hollywood.

I don't say them at least.

Irish is becomming an official language of the European Parliment in January. We were over in Brussels and Brian Crowleys PA's was telling us about it.

Other than that, Irish is pretty much dead. crying

Yes, I know, that's good. But I can't understand why it didn't became official when Ireland joined the EU...
