Yeah there's a good few. I speak it confidently enough, wouldn't say I'm fluent fluent. I know at least one native speaker on here

Cheers. Did you continue to speak it after school or how did you keep up your levels?

I went to an all Irish primary school , my dad taught at that school , he was a native Irish speaker . I then went to an English speaking secondary school and my Irish never really developed past that . I can speak Irish and understand it , but don't speak it as well as my siblings who went to Irish speaking secondary school . I do speak to my daughter in Irish which she understands , but she never ever speaker it back to me . I'd actually love to improve my Irish too .

Same as spoke it a lot when younger . . Went to college in U.K. And was always great to chat with fellow Irish speakers . . alas when I moved home no one spoke it so when I had kids I make them all speak it so so now can chat with them

Couldn't write it though here in chat . . My spelling would be despicable

+1 on this app!

Excuse the broken irish, i am trying to work from the head and not google translate.

Nuair a bhí aithne agam go bhfuil gaeilge air duine, i ngach seans chuir mé comhrá ag an duine seo i ngaeilge.

If i know a person has Irish, I use every chance to talk to that person in Irish.

I grew up speaking Donegal Irish, they don't teach it on Duolingo which makes me sad!

Tá suim agam, caint faoi gaeilge le duine as an ceantar idirlíon.

Ar mhaith aon duine buail le mise agus caint trid gaeilge. Tá gaeilge briste agam ach tá mé ina chonaí ag foglaim.

Nuair a bhí suim ag aon duine eile, chuir glaoch orm.

Is fearr Gaeilge bhriste, ná Béarla cliste!

Go maith!!

Nuair a buail mé le daoine tríd gaeilge, ceapaim go raibh caint an deachair. Ach tá a lán baint le solt as an obair seo.
