    What's wrong with that? It's our first language.:rolleyes:

    No it isn't. A first language, native language, or mother tongue is the first language that a person learned. Most of our population speak English as their first language. D-D-D-DUH! How could you not know this?

    There should be some Irish channels in the style of all those cheapskates on Sky but with more Irish programmes. Even a few live shows a day would eventually pass out RTE and by the look of most of the crappy local channels on Sky, they could work with second hand equipment, some camcorders and a DVD player :rolleyes:

    First of all the Irish was spoken by a group of presenters who are actually from the Gealtachs in Ireland.

    An Dara Rud, usoideann siad Bearla agus Gealige anios agus aris tri an séo, deaneann RTE gealige agus bearl gach blian tri an feila.

    And finally the parade is still a load of cac, regardless of language.

    (My irish is bad, sorry!!!)
