This four-week course is both a refresher for those who have Irish but may not have used it in a while, and an introduction to oral Irish for non-Irish speakers. The emphasis is not on grammar or written Irish: the course is based on oral Irish used in a primary school or primary Gaelscoil setting. It aims to give key vocabulary and handy phrases to increase comfort and confidence around the Irish language.
Content
