“Translators who only have a job because of the Irish language like the Irish language, details at 11”
Going by the reflection in the mirror of the Conradh na Gaeilge meeting that place was hopping.

Comments here are inexplicably frothing at the mouth and universally negative, so I’ll add my two cents – I lived in Brussels for a year working in a big scary corporate environment full of lots of native French speakers. It was overwhelming both professionally and socially. I had acquaintances in the Irish-speaking community and ended up on a fair few nights out with some of them, and it was really lovely to see them flit in and out of Irish throughout the night. Language is such a powerful cultural touchstone that it really did help me get a sense of home and I’m glad that was the case when I was there.
Lol nothing but positive, anyone who genuinely has an issue with irish being spoken anywhere is a closet brit
They have a gaeltecht because of monks travelling from Ireland right? If I remember right it’s a fascinating bit of history.
Genuine admiration for those fluent in Irish.
Remember the next time you’re on holidays and people keep insisting that you’re “basically British” , being monolingual in English is a huge factor in this 👍
Hey…Good to know it’s spoken over there!
Pity it’s not spoken in social settings in it’s homeland! Still not ‘cool’ here
