- 1:47li o members. But today i want to speak a
- 1:51little bit about getting more irish in your life.
- 1:54Sa set up free wheel is. Suppose you can look at things
- 1:59in terms of active or formal study and passive ar informal
- 2:04study sets just call it active and passive for the sake of
- 2:07today. That's a bit on by which which
- 2:09so certainly active study. I would say it down and the
- 2:13podcast or taobh seo and very fucks a dhéanamh the irish and
- 2:17shall be paid and everywhere very much does for the irish.
- 2:23And that being the man thing that bart is active study
- 2:27lessons with teachers very active study.
- 2:29Even if you but Ireland and that the irish from other work of
- 2:33include that have been active study as well certain watching
- 2:37youtube video listen to my consent watty content.
- 2:41Rinne údair of the grade irish language peters out there online
- 2:45in person that certainly action, but you know that may take up.
- 2:50Maybe you sceideal and you twenty five of thirty minutes of
- 2:53irish ever time back to me per day by the way for six hours out
- 2:58that she lives but fifteen and half not to go to the numbers
- 3:01but still lives big portion of the portion of the week, the
- 3:05portion of your life, not free because of young and stuff.
- 3:08That kind of is the point that leaves it without stop going on.
- 3:13Bíonn irish. Now some way, do they try and
- 3:17solutions this and all just study more in our day two hours
- 3:21a day but quickly because you really, really the language you
- 3:24a lot of the time you hands you believe it burns out by this you
- 3:27stop and down the practice as much like anything, you know.
- 3:31He was once weeks but have every day, every it pretty quickly,
- 3:36even something that it hopes enjoyable few days in terms of
- 3:39speaking, listening to irish and learning more about it and about
- 3:43structured language and whatever aspect of language your posts in
- 3:47this one. But you can do it again, a
- 3:49dhéanamh againn. And some point will be as one so
- 3:52mór active formal process is necessary.
- 3:56The answer was spoken about twenty satharn, sometimes you
- 3:59with yourself and will actually doing of you say i am learning
- 4:03irish and identify of someone WHO is learning a language but
- 4:07as yourself. Yesterday, for example of this
- 4:10will yesterday was this service matter this was there was
- 4:13travelling whatever yesterday not less than practice if you
- 4:18don't spend the way to speak in the standard language.
- 4:21B'fhéidir level and when you look up, even if it just by
- 4:24learning one or two words o some people WHO need more action.
- 4:28But most people need mór passive study passive practice if you
- 4:32want to use less academic bord leatsa because we can something
- 4:37about it. Tuigfidh as a treoir i guess it
- 4:40on the web connotation school and college and the rest of it.
- 4:45So what i mean by passive practice?
- 4:49Bhuel, bhain 6 think firstly about the amount of language we
- 4:52interact with the day. For most people, if you live in
- 4:55Ireland in english or first language, then most of this kind
- 4:59of language instruction will be through irish to think about
- 5:03today. For example, how much we
- 5:05interact with language just a few days in terms of reading
- 5:09reading region. Lynwood, any time you, your
- 5:12phone, you déanaimid language names of owners of website go n
- 5:16sett, google reader and stuff reading the news againn
- 5:21navigation fón going to settings whatever might be something went
- 5:25on social media. I take away all the language
- 5:29within social media, le written language and the other words you
- 5:34don't realise. Every time you open instagram,
- 5:36you must be ready. Thousand two thousand words.
- 5:40If you scrolling for a few minutes as well as that, this
- 5:43books, of course, of your kendal, your inbox, whatever it
- 5:47be as well and you the laptop. If you spend two, three years
- 5:51working on the laptop, the amount of words you see, the
- 5:53amount of contraction is well, language evidently open as
- 5:58regards podcasts, some words on screen thostamar in irish, as
- 6:02you can see, will be going with this returns this in of the
- 6:06minutes and the words up there because of page those things mo
- 6:10laptop. As Gaeilge.
- 6:12But as well as that said, from the language listing watching,
- 6:16so it was watching people to speak irish for so listing
- 6:20tuairisce do thi the vpn mute any time you youtube your
- 6:23listing to a language, whatever language might be, so my in
- 6:27english or whatever your first language is wherever you live.
- 6:31As in spain, a lot of stuff it in my own spanish and what i
- 6:35need to open and social media you going to real stories, the
- 6:39music, your listing to your interactions with language there
- 6:42most songs have vocals in them. I have some type of spoken word
- 6:46in any time turn on the tv it on the radio any time you the
- 6:51podcast were hearing people speak gently.
- 6:54Same thing with yourself. Why?
- 6:57Something was that is but still using notice notes around the
- 7:00house, not box and young paper your rating and your rating and
- 7:05language less you are doing mathematics.
- 7:07Everything's really is the language and young shopping this
- 7:11year raidió document for your sending an email so that
- 7:15somebody different things, just a few random ideas.
- 7:18Obair constantly interaction with language at the moment
- 7:21listings podcast you here me speak to you, hearing to speak
- 7:25your language to navigate the podcast an spotify patrún ar
- 7:30apple you encounter lot of language katy rose, you get this
- 7:34podcast without even thinking for any podcast an spotify now
- 7:38because you but you are actually loaded language as you that and
- 7:43that sort and what it says type and structure whatever you that
- 7:48and you talking about yourself. Cuir constant Liam t rian force
- 7:51point here. Sorry gen boring but were
- 7:54constantly consequently constantly interacting with
- 7:57language. So the gall for me one way to
- 8:01measure have yourself with a language.
- 8:05And also make yourself feel like the language is something
- 8:08important to you is to say the moment for a lot of people
- 8:11wishing. U ar mhaith leat language in
- 8:14countering every day one hundred per cent this must be in
- 8:17english. It be different from people to
- 8:19let in ninety five percent in english, five percent of it is
- 8:23in irish. You are just some group in
- 8:25Ireland WHO is learning irish in or relating it and post scoil.
- 8:31So for the people say for me, my might be fifty percent in
- 8:36english in the moment. Twenty ten irish twenty spanish
- 8:41tencent, italian ok there was even a broad learn a language
- 8:46whether there might be a difference, but for most people,
- 8:49liosta, what's your ninety percent english and five percent
- 8:54irish independent other languages and five percent tent
- 8:58irish sin. Probably most of that irish is
- 9:01coming through formal active practice sin down to specify
- 9:05podcast to improve your irish with you sent down washing.
- 9:10Mar views on all podcast or someone else's, or you have your
- 9:14irish lesson one week, whatever else it might b.
- 9:18But what about the other ninety five percent the passive of all
- 9:23things list of there, we can change all to irish, but
- 9:26certainly page a lot. Ansan you start going through
- 9:30irish and think about all the different things.
- 9:33Níl a fhios agam patrún 0 uair nó glasraí that we have actually
- 9:37checkout document living life as Gaeilge or a thuigimid be liosta
- 9:40actually liosta liosta acmhainní list resources lotteries lowden
- 9:45podcast shows you can watch social media and follow up the
- 9:49chance to irish but was that different things you can be
- 9:52doing every day to have more irish in your life?
- 9:56So let's go back to that list the way first reading and region
- 10:01language and acts as the first thing.
- 10:03Brent ann a lot of apps mór mór all the time of your phone and
- 10:07you laptop can be changed to irish and normally very good
- 10:11translations in terms of social media leat you can change x in
- 10:15the irish you can change your page instagram at the moment
- 10:19it's far as i know it facebook into irish, your email you gmail
- 10:23and out look into irish a few random websites well such as ar
- 10:27b possibly booking as utterly b you can change it irish and you
- 10:32be amazed even if you're not actually booking.
- 10:34Éiríonn bank of bringing back to suppose active part in some
- 10:38different that pretend you go on to look.
- 10:41Try it roll ever change in irish and to navigation through and
- 10:47god check out the words you don't understand.
- 10:49You can really state your mind. Bring up the words that one of
- 10:54Ireland by using the language that way for something
- 10:58practical, but that's more so again looking at the more active
- 11:03and formal practice bun na passed.
- 11:06Elfers that we can change into irish on the phone and different
- 11:10social media, different sites google, i can change it to irish
- 11:13if we look my laptop here. Laptops brent for different
- 11:16directives offer you believe that is really video after that
- 11:22you says free viewer you that completely in irish and
- 11:26completely fresin irish settings of you change your laptop will
- 11:31most bones can be changed to irish the phone itself?
- 11:34Most laptops can be it actually all three operating systems
- 11:38serving windows and certainly linux.
- 11:40Justice to you can be with me. Mac can be campaí and not one
- 11:45hundred durand center and change into irish as well on the
- 11:49laptop. So i bhfad theastaigh open and
- 11:53set of fáil edit and select as the first three all bars hoppers
- 11:58Covid eagar, roghnaí and view its amharc go engines set of
- 12:04help to cover and so on. My house currently having over
- 12:09the big red button to stop this recording about ten minutes and
- 12:13jane taifeadadh for slash taifead roinn nua ok so can
- 12:18start a dhean new recording to record.
- 12:21In general, so again, this is it me, you're not learning to let
- 12:25it italiano and learning italian at the moment.
- 12:28So we were making podcast for people were learning irish in
- 12:33just my job. I word for record in italian
- 12:38without even kind of trying to learn it out in down and taking
- 12:41a half, four out to actually do some work and also need to obey.
- 12:46This isn't as fast you passive practices isn't to give you as
- 12:51much as they minutes of act of practice will, but it's bring up
- 12:54all things and also irish suppose the big issue for people
- 12:57in irish as they fell? Okay, i want to speak it but i
- 13:02feel like it just like him not actually used that much, you
- 13:06know, actually know mission to the gaeltacht.
- 13:09Never probably to live in and my time, that's the language and it
- 13:14is going to kind shop ar an dublin ar cuairt gur gabhadh
- 13:18city river and everybody WHO speak irish is not likely
- 13:22spanish language, spencer, six months, spencer, golden valley
- 13:25times year and we constantly use it is not any people have
- 13:29english and so on. Every one, as far as i know the
- 13:31world to speaks agat level of irish has fluent or very good in
- 13:36english or any one or both. So solas aimsigh cén chiall ar
- 13:41bith discouraging and again when you how many things your life
- 13:45againn gan bas that ninety five one hundred zero kind spéis if
- 13:49you can make that seventy from this they found sixty for this
- 13:53forty irish and put more of women of things oifig and if
- 13:58your big reader will not ready for irish and lots of books out
- 14:01there at different levels as if the said back on one of the
- 14:05early asos, i believe it was one was of smaointe satharn.
- 14:09Níl mé chun doyle so. Let's say if you're reader, but
- 14:13you don't like fiction like myself that it fiction, but i
- 14:18will press office ná ficsean bhuel i líonadh talún now what
- 14:23would by book in fiction, even if it wherever and you won't
- 14:28read it was my children's fiction book language betty
- 14:33level, but if not one in english or irish on my first languages
- 14:37anyway, wed a ficsean book in a language even more difficult
- 14:41for. Eldon, reading a ficsean book in
- 14:46irish language it difficult to focus on, so whenever na
- 14:50stanford fort word is go even more difficult and not think it
- 14:54much so can find what they wish to offer in other languages.
- 14:59Irish, italian as a comparison, a lot of books available printed
- 15:03in irish or na talún, but you don't realise they start going
- 15:07deeper and i saol na Gaeilge, irish speakers, irish language
- 15:11should structure is irish fillable you so lucky.
- 15:15We learn a language now than ten fifty years ago there was soll
- 15:19as you talk about again, if you the patron, you can check out
- 15:22that resources all different shows, podcast books, one
- 15:27available for irish learners and not half of them by more than
- 15:31half the existence. Fifteen years ago they just
- 15:34raidió na Gaeltachta and tg 4 fiú books le harry potter cad a
- 15:38princeton irish ealaín nach dtagann siad isteach was that
- 15:41interesting exiting specially for people and under the age of
- 15:45forty event of people over the age of forty one fonds.
- 15:49Raidió na Gaeltachta that seeking to listen to local news
- 15:52na ceithre gaeltacht and is on. So i think again, look at that
- 15:57and looking at all the different things you can change in the
- 16:00irish and young thing that you will.
- 16:02I can change that in the old as i roved gaspe not be able to
- 16:06understand any of the wind will look after one by one or two
- 16:11that there okay, don't be able to understand all this that all
- 16:15but talk about it off that are talking about that you like and
- 16:18stuff that individual, and you can't understand that have it on
- 16:21in the background, gees on your friend speedy life.
- 16:26Item you in irish over and over again.
- 16:28So instead of this thing that they having one lesson week and
- 16:31seven days. But we needed lesson that
- 16:34evening and not the following evening.
- 16:37Instead of leaving lesson nine pm and evening and not having a
- 16:41single word in irish on three head for seven days, ansin is
- 16:45constantly put. It reminds you about the
- 16:48language you getting pronunciation by her, whatever
- 16:51time in put you have to be good. Somport is more frequent than
- 16:55others, but even if you podcast on the back of you establish its
- 16:59to help with the accent is going to be previewed.
- 17:01Pronunciation the flow. And so on, so change and not
- 17:05saying change everything to life in irish, but you be made by the
- 17:09amount of things you can change the radio, you the radio you got
- 17:13raidió na life raidió rí rá obviously raidió na Gaeltachta
- 17:17as well so why not? That changes of them listen to
- 17:22bid mór of the radio again if you don't listen to the radio
- 17:25free space in english or you first language will probably not
- 17:29listen to you in irish, but what's what are you doing every
- 17:34day and how we change of that? Tú b in irish to be as Gaeilge
- 17:39social media think about the algartam allow the works if you
- 17:42says in the realms on instagram. If you're such a personal myself
- 17:47best of times west of irish in there again.
- 17:51Just follow irish pages will come up your shopping rials,
- 17:54spend time watching at one what good was in the language you
- 17:59like event the community within few weeks will have something
- 18:04else irish kept to engage with that so again.
- 18:07Cén ar fifteen percent of the view that cumann up your album
- 18:10are as Gaeilge. Bhí smut logical about youtube
- 18:15about it. But that's one area where the
- 18:17irish language needs to improve this very well.
- 18:20Content on youtube in irish moss, the content for
- 18:23specifically again for learners which is good way but it
- 18:27specifically like my steak, for example, breaking down the
- 18:30language in helping people there were rather than just your blog
- 18:33for twenty minutes as Gaeilge here that but not as much so.
- 18:37Youtube is a bheith tricky isteach againn any not your fón
- 18:42right of irish in just need be worked but the words that you
- 18:44know and words you check at the end of the day at the end of the
- 18:48week and translation with so it just constantly bring up the
- 18:53language of this. What makes irish right way of
- 18:56learning? Offer the food that you duais
- 18:58and the food that specific to your life and prevent your life
- 19:02work documents against it was thinking of that google docs
- 19:05opener for something was right thing for work.
- 19:08So aige. Wayne, if the private thing you
- 19:12not sharing with the people. Okay, with the building, it
- 19:16should take too long, but not even small thing if you put the
- 19:20date. James put it in our it, you
- 19:23know, dé máirt, whatever an. Téann lá is 20 bealtaine 2005 tá
- 19:30after it makes you not sure is may meitheamh ar bealtaine.
- 19:35Bíonn checkout and put it back again ar.
- 19:37You know, there's loads of you. All of this is helping, and
- 19:41especially in irish, it makes you feel like the languages
- 19:44important part of life and with you need it.
- 19:47You know, if you could fifty or twenty decent of your real sin
- 19:51instagram are as Gaeilge you caithfidh tú faoi like you need
- 19:56to language in order to understand for the actually you
- 19:59feel you even if you are of course it and this then that's
- 20:02ok. Andres replicate the things you
- 20:07want to do, so what you want to irish water level you won't get.
- 20:10EI, was that most people were breaking down when i get the
- 20:13level where you could go for cafe and we just in irish for
- 20:17another and we will be to you. That means and talk about this
- 20:22love was before including you satharn go back to work on it
- 20:26out this that means behaving express pretty na hindia that up
- 20:30within reason in some words you don't have to carry you will.
- 20:36Whenever a bhfuil the words in language that you know, even if
- 20:39you speak to agat level but be able to express the dia in some
- 20:44form to me, you try to say about sport match the work you the
- 20:49word for word work but you the word for post or the thing by
- 20:53the river be able to express it without you and the other half
- 20:57that is being able to understand what i say bíonn able to
- 20:59understand pretty much the speaker and very extremely, very
- 21:03difficult accent or way of speaking.
- 21:07As well as that, the things you want to that and be able to send
- 21:12tg 4 and tg 4 nuacht bhuel duais emmy canton 7 noun you get
- 21:16better it is beidh duais as quoted before from the famous
- 21:22focal manager and not an focal faire don up in different
- 21:26examples on her sometimes, but you suppose a lot of people to
- 21:30relate to the said it was my you he said to be piss, you don't
- 21:36round the paw. Ordú put up to make things
- 21:40ranger, you get down to play the piano.
- 21:42So again, whatever you want to, whatever it is you want to use
- 21:46the language for, do that, even if you're not at the level two
- 21:49d'uaish properly yet so that i want to be able to listen to
- 21:53podcasts, women as Gaeilge nó na seanchinn go rinn easan an as
- 21:59Gaeilge mhaith againn you might not stand everything béal movie
- 22:03close cupán té in steps and kept on help you get better the
- 22:07specific thing that you want to SO.
- 22:10Yeah 3 cape mi air think of the difference between acts of
- 22:14practice and passive practice. If you to that formal and
- 22:17informal practice think outside of you have half of practice at
- 22:20your service much. You do not say that that to
- 22:24little perfect about it depends on what you sceideal, how your
- 22:27doing it and when i look at the other fifteen or stay that day,
- 22:31for example, that the weekend wel the wall times of
- 22:35interaction language, how can i make ten twenty?
- 22:38Forty percent of that in irish on even though it down you go
- 22:43through. All the different things
- 22:45interaction with that included language will be long west at
- 22:48the end of have those partly out fully to irish or language, you
- 22:53might be long. So that is it holy that made
