Syd teaches Claude some Irish!

(Click on the Irish phrase to hear the phrase spoken by our Fourth cLass pupils - Syd was shy of the microphone!)

In Ireland we learn a language called Irish. In some parts of Ireland they speak Irish daily but in most parts we speak English. Today in school Syd learned Irish phrases like:

thank you; "Go raibh maith agat" pronounced gu -rev -mah -a -guth.

Please: "Más e do thoil é", pronounced mawsh - ay -duth - thull - ay.

How are you:   "Conas tá tú?" Cunus - thaw - thu, 

Goodbye: "Slán" Slawn

Hello: "Dia duit" = deea ghit.

Syd enjoyed learning Irish.
