A JOURNEY INTO THE WISDOM AND WIT OF AN GHAEILGE How do you feel about embracing our native tongue? A bit awkward? At odds after a tricky relationship at school? Maybe you’ve given up, or don’t know where to start? Well, is fada an bóthar nach mbíonn casadh ann – long is the road that has no turn and, in this book, the road is about to turn. Through seanfhocail agus scéalta – proverbs and stories – Molly Nic Céile, creator of the social media sensation for Irish-language learners and lovers Gaeilge i Mo Chroí, invites us to connect with Irish in our hearts, as we turn náire into gáire – embarrassment into laughter – on a journey of renewed pride in our national tongue. With plenty of craic along the way – including the hilarious ‘if Irish were English’ approach to better understanding sentence structure – the book offers guidance on bringing Irish into our everyday lives, supported by useful word and phrase glossaries throughout. Connect with an Ghaeilge you didn’t know you knew, embrace na botúin – the mistakes – and discover the richness our beautiful language – ár teanga álainn – can offer.
