Irish language really annoying

alarmskippy

Hi
I just think that the way the Irish language is forced upon people is disgraceful. TG4 paid for by the whole of the Republic, and unneccessary expense of printing the Irish on forms and roadsigns etc costing time, money, paper, ink etc. It makes forms less clear to read really. It is also added in before introducing programs, and adding phrases in now and then. TBH, I am quite happy to speak English; like many English speaking countries, and I do not wish to have it forced upon me like when I was in school. I could have spent that time learning Spanish, for example as that may have come in useful. It does not sound nice just like German. I think if some people want to speak bits of it among themselves - fine, but I do not need them trying to promote it to me. The government likes to name some organisations in Irish which confuses and annoys me. It annoys me when it comes on the radio/tv and makes me feel like I am in a foreign country listening to something I cannot relate to.
