Ireland was unironically destined to be a superpower, the Anglo made quick work of that ambition

Where do you think the lazy Irishman stereotype came from?

Just couldn't be bothered to learn.

I presume mandatory schooling in English and English settling played a big part.

why does everyone care so much about this

I think in the end it actually turned advantageous to Ireland that they don't use Irish primarily. Sure it's nice to have it for "muh culture and we wuzery" points but when it comes to economics this was way WAY more useful to them.

wonder when your country will start embracing this attitude skopje-friend :)

Having your own language is a symbol of identity and culture. That only 5 % av Irish has it has native language is sad.

The fact that you're making this thread and not a thread about the lack of British speakers in East Anglia means something went right.

i was expecting a /int/ feud to come up

>that drop off on the border

That contrast shows more the the Republic's citizenry's overreporting of language ability rather than lack of Irish among the border towns in the North.

bear in mind irish is a required subject at primary and secondary level and for entry to third level. A broad swathe of the population can speak it proficiently.

Of course, but proficiency is a tricky thing. Going from the Irishmen I've spoken to, people often think that going through school makes them automatic Gaeilgeoirí though they may not remember anything but the basics. Thus they mark on the census that yes, I speak Gaeilge, even though they couldn't hold a two minute conversation with someone from Cois Farraige.
