Guest maoam Posted May 28, 2010 Report Share Posted May 28, 2010 move to the aran islands. wouldnt be a bad experience either, dunno if your serious. friend of mine from norway successfully taught herself irish by living there for a while (and doing four years of undergraduate irish studies beforehand) you will have to drink a lot also, goes without saying.

FUCK That's the worst thing i've ever eaten. The flesh simply doesn't cleave to the bones. Battery ferming. And then, foie gras is banned from NY state, because it's considered as ill-treat. IT'S NOT. KFC is tourist ill-treat. YOU POISONERS! Two hours after being to KFC, i stopped in a amsih little town barf all that KFC shit out. Nice work!

Why don't you go fuck yourself? The best way to learn Irish is to immerse yourself in it. That's probably not an option for you though is it. Learning to speak it with a computer programmme might be a bit weird but sure give it a shot. I would bother learning to write it, the grammar is fucking mental. I found the whole German thing: Der Die Das Die to be more logical and easier than any of the Irish grammar. EDIT: I'll speak it to you if you've got basics down.

Guest Conor74 Posted June 14, 2010 Report Share Posted June 14, 2010 Cork is the greatest city in the world, though granted not the prettiest. Love it. And pretty sure it made Lonely Planet's top ten cities to visit list this year. So its loveliness has been verified scientifically, by scientists, using scientific experiments.
