Watch: https://itv.ie/i-renamed-6-us-states-in-irish/
In this video we are going to imagine potential Irish language names for 6 American States based on the History and Geography of the State. I will give a few options for possible names and then settle on one. This allows us to imagine what names the States of America could have if they were named in the same way as Counties and towns in Ireland. As always there will be slow and clear pronunciation along with subtitles to help.
