For the ordinary poems id say jack faoiseamh or gealt.

for pros bean og lig sinn i gcathu or an cearbhach.
i have no idea about an stair, im totally screwed for it...
does any1 have the translations for the poems?? i really need them.
im tryin to get @ least a c3 and a person i know who corrects the irish papers every year says when you do the summary for the poems its an automatic c3 regardless of what the question was asking you.
so plz if any1 has the translations i would be very greatful.
also does any1 know wats comin up for an stair???

Hard to know with An Stair but I'd Learn An Ruraiocht and An Fhianniocht, Gaeilge sna mean cumarsaide and a few poets anyway.

eh no its not. i know for a fact that its true. i dont think they were just blatantly lying to my face.

IWishh

I don't know, that sounds a bit fishy to me too.
Sounds like the kinda thing you get away with in JC.. but LC? Hmm ...

[condescending] Awhh, sweeeeetie, how cute. I think there's a slight chance they just might have been, dear. [/condescending].

Seriously though, just to get this straight, your plan for Honours irish is to just write out a bunch of summaries for everything in the hope that somehow you'll actually get a C3? Best of luck. You might seriously need it.

"What traits of a béaloidis are found in An Cearrbhach Mac Cábá?"
This is a short story where some guy gambles loads and stuff, c3 please.

bythewoods

im not retracting what i said earlier but maybe if i say what context i learnt this info you may think differently.
im repeating irish for the leaving, i go to a class specifically for people who hope to go to primary school teaching college. the irish teacher giving us the information said that she has been correcting the papers for 20 years and they are told how to mark them. she said that there was a rule that if someone does a summary for the peotry q (im pretty sure its only the poetry) they will get a c3. she said that a lot of teachers that correct papers dont tell their students this because they want to get more then a c3.
those are the facts that i have learnt. if you dont want to take it into consideration then thats fine, but please i dont want you to talk down to me like that and i dont see how any other person who would be ok with it either.

Nope, I'm afraid I still think you're horribly deluded.
Your teacher with her secret little tips on the marking scheme doesn't sound great tbh.
According to your post in another thread this week, she hasn't even told you what Stair na Gaeilge is-

[quote=[Deleted User];60146532]ok this is going to sound a little sad, but, what exactly is an stair? i know it means history but what do you have to write??
i just started higher in february and i concentrated mainly on the oral, im studying at home...
and what do all those titles mean that you just mentioned there??[/quote]

I just don't know there!

"Talk about Colours and Sounds in Jack"
Eh, jack's a poem about some woman who went to the gaeltacht when she was younger and kissed some local boy. She still, like, thinks about him. The end."

-Sorry, this isn't a personal attack or anything. I'm sure you'll make a great Primary Teacher if you're dedicated enough to go back and repeat for it, but seriously- if you think you can get a c3 by just learning off summaries for Paper 2, then it looks like it'll be a Jam Making course for you.
Also, if you're struggling with Irish so much, why do you want to do primary teaching?
I hear you do Irish in that.

Why can't one ask their elders about jam making?

bythewoods

no, i was quite good in the oral but its just paper 2 that im really worried about. i wasnt even great at poetry and novels in english...
look i know you dont believe me about the summaries but its what i was told. and she seemed to know what she was talkin about.
jam making?? how do you come up with these things?...if we werent arguing id say we'd get along!;P

Just expose yourself to some Ulster Irish speakers for a while and it'll be grand. Two of the girls in my house in Irish college were from Donegal so I got fairly used to it... téip.

A bit late for going to Irish college maybe, but not exactly too late to listen to the CD, and get used to it that way?! They're sort of repetitive anyway, from what I remember from doing them last year...

So much hate for the Donegal Irish speaker

There's a girl from the Donegal Gaeltacht who regularly reports for Nuacht TG4 for anyone wishing to further appreciate the accent that (I'm fairly certain) was voted the sexiest in the world.

antomorro-sei

Any ideas on what poems are gonna come up? And what ones wont come up?

Same Q with the prose really... :pac:

Nice one

Jaysus, way to make the girl feel stupid... :eek:

She'd defo get a C3 if she did a decent aural, oral and paper 1 regardless of how good/bad she answered her poetry wouldn't she? Like, it's 55% afterall...

Then again, she mightn't do a good aural, oral or paper 1...

Did she not mean summary notes??
Summary notes that if you learn off will trigger the answer in your head?

No, she was suggesting that if you write out the summaries, regardless of what the question being asked actually is, you'll get an automatic C3:
