An Gaeilge

"Tá an Ghaeilge san fhaisean arís"

Bhuail cúpla smaointe mé nuair a léigh mé teideal an aiste seo. Oscail an nuachtán, cuir an Radio nó teilifís ar siúl, gach áit a chasann múis cloistear scéalta faoin nGaeilge. Cuirfidh mé tús an aiste seo le stair an Gaeilge. Leathnófar an plé ansin ag déanamh tráchta ar scaipeadh Gaeilge. Mar a feictear domsa é tá méadú suntasach tagtha ar an méid Gaeilge atá le feiceáil ar líne. Níl aon dabht ach go bhfuil an Ghaeilge san faisean arís

A couple of points hit me when i read the title of this essay. Open the news, put the tv or the radio on, everywhere we turn we hear stories about irish. I will start this essay with the history of irish. The discussion will be then be expanded commenting on the spread of Irish in schools. As i see it there is a significant increase of the amount of Irish to be seen online. There is no doubt that Irish is in fashion again

Ar an gcéad dul síos, tá an Ghaeilge tar eis maireachtáil os cionn 2000 bhliain - i ag seasadh trí ghorta, bochtanas, galuir, agus ainneart na Sasanach. Ba í an Ghaeilge ársa, teanga na gCeilteach a tháinig go hÉirinn sa 3ú agus 4ú aois, bunús na Gaeilge atá againn inniu. Cé go bhfuil a bás a fhógairt leis na cianta, tá sí fós beo beathach i ag athrú ag forbairt i gcónaí. Taispeánann stair na Gaeilge cumhacht agus láidreacht a bhí ag mhuintir na hÉireann i dtréimhsí deacra

Firstly, Irish is after living over 2000 years withstanding through famine , poverty, diseases, English violence. It was the ancient Irish, the language of the celts that came to Ireland in the third and the fourth century, the basis of the Irish language we have today. Even though her death has been advertised to the ages, she is still alive, changing and developing constantly. Irish history shows the strength and power the people of Ireland had in difficult times

Ní féidir a shéanadh gur tháinig borradh agus fás ar an dteanga dúchais na cúpla bhliain anuas tóg mar shampla na Gaelscoileanna agus na Gaelcholáistí. Tá ceann i mbeagnach gach baile mór in hÉireann i láthair na huaire agus tá siad lán le liostaí fada feithimh chomh maith. Cruthaíonn sé seo go bhfuil suim ag tuismitheoirí agus daltaí in oideachais lán Gaelach a fháil agus a bheith dhá theangach freisin. Conas mar sin gur féidir a rá go bhfuil an teanga ag fáil báis nó go bhfuil meath ag teacht ar an nGaeilge.

You cannot deny that there is a boom and growth on the native language the past years take for example, the Irish schools and Irish colleges there is one in almost every big town in Ireland currently and they are filled with long waiting list as well. That parents and students to get a full Irish education and be bilingual as well. How can it be sad that the Irish is dying or that the Irish language is declining?

Shampla eile go bhfuil an Ghaeilge beo i measc an phobail ná an Ghaeilge le feiceáil do forleathan ar an idirlíon. Tá suim mhór ag daoine ar fud an domhain an Ghaeilge a fhoghlaim agus tá suíomhanna iontach agus na céadta suíomhanna sóisialta a fáil go héasca dóibh. Tá blaganna agus túiteanna as Gaeilge le fáil go forleathan freisin. Conas a mar sin arís go féidir leis na 'fríth Gaeilgeoirí ' a rá go bhfuil deireadh leis an dteanga?

Another example that Irish is alive among the community is that Irish is seen widespread on the Internet. People have a big interest all around the world to learn Irish, and there are great sites and hundred social sites easily available to them. There is a widespread of blogs and tutorials to learn Irish as well. How again can against Irish speaking say that this is the end of the language?

Mar fhocail scoir agus ón méid atá scríofa agam aontaím go huile go hiomlán go bhfuil an Ghaeilge láidir agus beo, san fhaisean arís. Mar deir an seanfhocal 'Tír gan teanga, tír gan anam'

In summary and from what I have written, I totally fully agree that Irish is strong and alive in fashion again. as the private say a country without a language is a country without a name.
