What language is that?
I would guess some form of celt, but I do now know. Could you enlighten me please?
I had the joy of a short trip through Ireland in 2019, but never heard any language other than English, except in some folk songs in small bars.

@Zeusdelight Irish Gaelic. I'm from a predominantly Gaelic part of western Ireland.

@NicCarthaighA Thankyou NicCarthaighA. Is Irish Gaelic spoken as a matter of course there?
NicCarthaighA · 22-25, F
@Zeusdelight Yes, it's our language

@NicCarthaighA So are all the people there bilingual or just the younger ones?
NicCarthaighA · 22-25, F
@Zeusdelight Not all! The English have left a heavy boot mark on the Irish psyche!

@NicCarthaighA Yes, at times it still seemed close.
