  SPEAKER_00: Today we are going to be talking about irregular verbs.

  SPEAKER_00: There are fewer of them in Irish than in English.

  SPEAKER_00: In Irish there are eleven of them.
• 0:52
  SPEAKER_00: Six of those eleven are considered super irregular, meaning that they are more irregular than the other five.
• 1:01
  SPEAKER_00: The super irregulars will behave differently in nearly every tense, but the irregulars may conform at times, at least more than the supers do.
• 1:14
  SPEAKER_00: So the supers are to be B to say Aber to see Feck to get Fi to go te and to make slash do Dan The irregulars that are not super irregular are to give Towers to catch grab birth it's a variety of things bears to eat i to hear clush and to come tor.

  SPEAKER_00: Now we learned in the episode before last that when we ask a question, an triggers the Uru and the Uru for vowels is an end dash.
• 4:05
  SPEAKER_00: But that doesn't happen on it.

  SPEAKER_00: And actually doesn't happen on any verb in the present tense that starts with a vowel when asking a question.
• 4:16
  SPEAKER_00: We're gonna cover this in the next episode, but the short and provocative answer is DNTLS or dentals.
• 4:26
  SPEAKER_00: But for now, just keep in mind, when you're asking a question with itn, you're not going to use the Uru, it is just an I Next up we have to hear, which is clush.

  SPEAKER_00: So now we're going to go into the super irregulars.

  SPEAKER_00: The first one we've already covered a lot just because it is a verb that is used quite a bit in a lot of structures in Irish, and that is to be or be.

• 6:48
  SPEAKER_00: And you may also note that there's no shavu when we negate it.
