What's the difference between Irish and Gaelic?
>>
Gaelic? More like Gay Lick ;^D
>>
>>51017674
not heard that statistic before

But it's not surprising, Welsh is very much an oral language first and a written language second. Not to say its non-existant on paper, not at all, since there's a lot of Welsh poetry, literature, etc. It's just a lot more fluid and easy to speak than to write. I can speak for hours in Welsh but thinking of the right word to write or getting the grammar correct when typing in the language is a bit difficult, for me anyway.

Do you mean terminology wise? Gaelic is a broad term that refers to the set of Goidelic Celtic languages i.e. Old Irish and it's descendants (modern) Irish, Manx and Scottish Gaelic. Individually it can refer to any of these languages but most typically refers to Scottish Gaelic.

What are Scottish Gaelic, Welsh and Breton?
>>
>>51020472
>What are Scottish Gaelic, Welsh and Breton?
Right, my bad.
Though isn't Breton massively different from those?
>>
>>51020853
Breton is like Welsh's cousin and Irish/Scottish gaelic are their second cousin

It's not a minority language 2bh f@m
>>
>>51020472
>What are Scottish Gaelic, Welsh and Breton?
Scots Gaelic is, essentially, an older version of Irish.

Welsh and Breton come from a different branch of the Celtic language, they're not really mutually intelligible.
>>
>>51019351
Might have actually something to do with Finns having minimal or no interaction with Russians or Swedes.

>>Just Danish spoken by a Swede

>What are Scottish Gaelic, Welsh and Breton?
Scottish Gaelic is basically the same language, and in even worse condition. Welsh and Breton are Celtic but not remotely mutually intelligible with Irish.
>>
>>51024648
>Scots Gaelic is, essentially, an older version of Irish.
That's entirely wrong.
>>
>>51024826
Irish is spoken by 2,000,000 people little Englander.
>>
>>51026199
Older as in it has progressed slower due to very little use in day-to-day life. Irish progressed linguistically, Scottish was strangled by the English.

>>51024826
100,000 live in the Gaeltacht areas, but that doesn't count their kids (who move to urban areas), or the areas that aren't "Gaeltacht" but still possess a notable number of fluent speakers (for instance, Roscommon isn't "Gaeltacht" but has a lot of people proficient in the language), and I don't think it accounts for primary school teachers (who must speak Irish).

I'd actually estimate up to a million people could speak Irish proficiently.

And how many has that as their primary language? Isn't it mostly only spoken on the west coast?
Is it true some are still monolingual in gaeilge?
>>
>>51026269
>Irish is spoken by 2,000,000 people little Englander.

We both know that's not true. 140,000 people claim to speak it natively (most of them probably not fluently), and there's no way Irish has 1.8m+ fluent second language speakers.
>>
>>51026437
>Isn't it mostly only spoken on the west coast?
The Gaeltachts are on the west-coast, but I (different Anon) have heard people speaking in Irish in Dublin.

People just don't know who else speaks Irish, so you don't get to practice, but if you know where to look, there's plenty of people to talk with.

>is it true some are still monolingual
Maybe in the middle of fucking nowhere like out on some remote island, but I'm pretty sure everyone on the island speaks English.

That makes no sense or has any basis in reality.

140,000 would be those living within the Gaeltachts. That doesn't count the ones who moved out to the rest of the country, or the ones truly proficient in it, you little west-English muck savage.
