The Modh Coinníollach – A Basic Outline – iTV.ie

Posted on Leave a comment

Watch: https://itv.ie/the-modh-coinniollach-a-basic-outline/

As we will see the modh coínníollach is similar to the past tense in Irish and if you have a good knowledge of this conditional mood it will definitely help you to increase your understanding of Irish.

Posted on Leave a comment

Watch: https://itv.ie/irish-grammar-tip-you-need-to-know/

In this video I am going to talk about chuig and go dtí which both mean to as in going to a certain location. But whether you use chuig or go dtí entirely depends on the context of the situation and I’ll explain clearly and unambiguously where this distinction lies. This is a very useful Irish Grammar tip and once you are aware of this rule you will be able to speak and write with much more confidence.

Irish – A Window Into Our Past – iTV.ie

Posted on Leave a comment

Watch: https://itv.ie/irish-a-window-into-our-past/

The Irish language is a beautiful and ancient tongue and the words and phrases of Irish allow us to get an insight into how our ancestors lived and how they saw the world around them. In this video I will explore this a little bit by focussing on the Irish word Bó which means cow, we will look at how the cow was such an important part of early Irish life and we’ll see this reflected in words that we use today in modern Irish.
