borlanf2 Says:

Mar 18, 2008 - I'm a fluent native Irish speaker and I can only make out 3 words: glan, fairsing and suas. He should work on speaking clearly and using normal everyday words (apart from glan, fairsing and suas) if he wants to try to prove a point.

Seainin Says:

Mar 18, 2008 - I agree borlanf2. I'm a fluent non-native speaker of Irish and his pronounciation of many of the words was attrocious (in any dialect). And then he expected other people to know what they were, out of context! He should really use a native speaker for his language experiments. As a native English speaker, I frequently don't recognise certain words in English when they are spoken in a manner that I'm not used to. But I don't consider that to be any reflection of my ability in that language.

Mar 18, 2008 - Aontaím leat a bhorlanf2. Níor thuig mise dada ach oiread agus measaim go bhfuil Gaeilge mhaith agam. Focail aisteacha nár fograíodh i gceart a dúirt sé. Maith thú a Mhangáin, níor léirigh tú faic dúinn ach go bhfuil tú an fhírinne a chur as riocht

aoduibh Says:

Mar 18, 2008 - ach tá an ceart aige faoin iris. téastaíonn a leithéid go géar sa Ghaeilge

borlanf2 Says:

Mar 18, 2008 - He's right about the need for a magazine. The first edition of online magazine Nós(mag) was published yesterday.
