There's no way the people in this video represent a random sample of passersby. The average standard of Irish is way below what's shown here.

I don't even speak irish and have never been to Ireland but PLEASE keep this language alive. Its one of the most pleasant languages to just sit and listen to.

[Tim_Beitel]

I feel like a lot of these people are being needlessly hard on themselves. I’m hearing a lot of them saying that they barely know the language but when you listen to them they’re having full conversations in the language with only one or two brief moments here and there where they might stumble over a word. To my mind, they’re more fluent than they give themselves credit for

[TokiDokiNara]

It's heartening to see that there are so many younger folk so passionate about keeping the language alive! I hope that only continues to grow

The Celtic cultures and languages hang on to existence on the fringes of north western Europe. We need to start speaking them everywhere and be proud of who we are.

As a minority speaker in the Netherlands I resonate with this a lot. I wish we had a "Frisian Week" here too where it was sort of implied that that is the first thing you would hear and there's more attention for it. Your previous interview video is what got me hooked to your channel and I've stuck around ever since. Keep it up and good luck with the pregnancy!

Omg Gaelige is a very attractive language to my ear! ☘I am a Gallego from Galicia.

[biancafabiano]

Gaeilge is just BEAUTIFUL!!! I'm from Brazil and currently studying it! Ireland's history is so sad, unfair… and yet, beautiful with very strong and warrior people! It's great to see there are people that still keep the language and culture alive!!! 🇧🇷🇮🇪☘️

I love this! I speak Hebrew and sincerely hope the Irish (and the Scots, the Welsh, the Manx, the Cornish etc) can take some solace in the fact that a language being revived is not an impossible task like it may seem, and maybe learn from my people, the Jews, concerning how to revive a language.

Never never forget your native language irish language is beautiful.

I am from Kerry and well I did Irish in school because I had a huge passion for it but since I left school I've forgotten most of the language as my family speaks English on the daily but that doesn't stop me from wanting to learn it again. It's such a beautiful language and I am proud to have it as my native tongue ❤

Born and raised in the Gaeltacht, moved to the states and Canada in my 20s
After 20 years I still can speak it
The writing is a bit rusty but my town in county Galway are all Irish speakers so I’ll never lose it 😍

[APaganPerspective]

Claire these are my favorite videos . thank you for sharing the Irish language with us..Beannachta agas Slainte

[rebeccaanderson]

So glad to hear the language and that MANY of them speak it.

A clueless Korean myself recently visited Ireland and kept TG4 on in the hotel all day long for no reason, maybe just to feel more connected to Ireland. I saw a campaign ad featuring Aki, the rugby player, on the channel.

[pollyduron]

I love this. I've been trying to learn Irish and Scottish Gaelic ❤. Both have been hard for me. I live in Texas, so I speak a lot of Spanish.

[jahanas]

I’ve been studying Irish a lot recently and I’m happy that I understood more than I thought I would. My ancestors came from County Clare and Limerick. I’m going to be visiting later this year.

[freeplace]

Being part, Irish I love that the Gaeilge is alive and well! Great job Claire!
