It doesn't sound the way it's written at all. The structure of the grammar is so unlike English that it is fair to say that Polish is as close to English as Gaelic is. Odpowiedz Link

mampka Re: Looking for Irish people in Poland 26.07.05, 12:48 Thanks a lot for this web site. It is the first course of irish gaelic with sound !. I hope that I'll be able to learn myself. Best regards Joanna Odpowiedz Link
gustavinho Re: Looking for Irish people in Poland 26.07.05, 13:11 Don`t mention it(ta' failte romhat),Joanna, If you look well you may find more courses with sound files,they give an extensive lists of Irish on-line courses, by the way there`s a podrecznik irlandzkiego on the market,i`ve got a copy but unfortunately it`s in Gliwice, a Brazilian friend of mine also has one. I`m very interested in Irish,Welsh,Breton.Irish Pronunciaton is difficult but not impossible,of course the best way to learn Gaelic(Irish) is to live in the Gaeltacht area(Gaelic- speaking area),there are some free short courses for foreigners, look for the website of Foras na Gaeilge. Tell me the site you`re learning,i can eventually help you in naming others. Slan, Gustavo Odpowiedz Link
gustavinho Re: Looking for Irish people in Poland 26.07.05, 14:50 Joanna,here is another good link for many Irish courses on-line www.smo.uhi.ac.uk/gaeilge/english.html than go to Learning Irish, you`ll be amazed at the extensive list they give Nice regards! Odpowiedz Link
mampka Re: Looking for Irish people in Poland 26.07.05, 22:18 Gustavo, till now I used: www.irishpage.com/irishpeople/ but it is only html, no sound. Now I have to install real player but it is a piece of cake. As You advised me I used google searching for keywords "irish courses" and I found some with sound In fact I heard that gaelic is a atrophic language thats why I didn't thought that I can find it in google Thanx for your help. But of course I would like to mail with someone in irish gaelic Have a nice night Joanna Odpowiedz Link
gustavinho Re: Looking for Irish people in Poland 27.07.05, 09:01 Dzien dobry,Joanna! Nice to hear that you`re finding your way regarding on-line Irish courses, once again if you look for appropriately,in the link i gave ending in english.html,you see that there are many courses with sound files,one you may like to try would be the one of RTE(the Irish language TV Channel). Concerning the term Gaelic in English,it`s mostly used for the Scottish Celtic language,although wrongly because the official and historical name for Irish is also Gaelic. As to corresponding with someone in Irish,when you get some level of proficiency, feel free to try it on me,i`ve got a basic knowledge and like to read some texts in it. Later,when you become very confident in Irish,you certainly would enjoy visiting home.beo.ie it`s an Irish magazine for advanced learners, with some vocabulary in English and very important,they give links to Irish radio/tv. here is the link to the Irish channel, www.rte.ie Is mise le meas,serdecznie pozdrawiam, Gustavo Odpowiedz Link
gustavinho Re: Looking for Irish people in Poland 27.07.05, 10:07 Dia dhuit ar maidinn!Joanna, Here i selected for you some Irish courses with sound files,maybe you`ve already come across one or a couple of them! home.primus.com.au/conaill/gleann/html/frasai.html www.maths.tcd.ie/gaeilge/lessons.html www.travlang.com/languages/cgi-bin/langchoice.cgi?page=main&lang1=english&lang2=irish www.learn-irish-language-software.com/phrases/FSIrish.htm (i strongly recommend this one,no need to install anything!) www.smo.uhi.ac.uk/~oduibhin/sf/sceal01.html (this one is for advanced learners,although interesting for hearing how Irish sounds) By the way,i`ve got a clue as to why you`re so interested in learning this amazing language,you fell in love with Irish songs,didn`t you?The beauty and mystery of the songs aroused your curiosity and interest! You know, my favourite is Athair ar neahm(lit.Father on heaven) by Enya,extraordinarily beautiful song,i just love it! I`m keen on making languages as these wider known,last year i took part in an Irish course here in Poland,it was in Sosnowiec(now i`m living in Warsaw),i also helped with letting the teacher copy the materials i had. Do you know that in Lublin(Uniwersytet Katolicki) you can study Irish/Welsh? You can also write me in Polish,poniewaz tez mowie po-polsku a uwielbiam twoj jezyk,polski jest bardzo ladnym jezykiem. No to,powodzenia i milej zabawy z nauka jezyka irlandzkiego Keep in touch! Odpowiedz Link
mampka Re: Looking for Irish people in Poland 27.07.05, 22:31 Gustavo, go raibh maith agat! Zrobiłeś kawał dobrej roboty dla mnie Dziękuję bardzo za podane linki, napewno z nich skorzystam gdy za tydzień wrócę z urlopu. Ja mieszkam w Łodzi i nie mam czasu na stacjonarne studia. Pracuję, mam rodzinę i od roku studiuję eksternistycznie, co oznacza, ze mam b napięty czas. Nie miałabym czasu by jeździć na KUL do Lublina ani na Śląsk, daltego spróbuję sama się nauczyć. Na razie też nie mam co marzyć o wyjeździe na Zieloną Wyspę, choć marzę o tym od dzieciństwa. Uwielbiam muzykę i taniec irlandzki, brak czasu sprawia, że mogę tylko słuchać muzyki (Lorena McKennith, Clannad i Enya). Moja ulubiona to greensleeves, tradycyjna muzyka. Nie bardzo odróżniam szkocki folklor od irlandzkiego (poza rękodziełem i kiltami) tak więc mogę pomylić rodzaj muzyki, wybacz. Dlatego chciałabym porozmawiać z kimś z irlandii. Uwielbiam czasy średniowieczne, zamki, tradycje, ubiory. W Polsce regularnie zwiedzam ruiny i zamki. A Irlandia nadal póki co pozostanie moim marzeniem. Bardzo dziękuję Ci za pomoc cieszę się, ze znalazłam kogoś kto jak ja lubi celtów pozdrawiam Joanna PS. Let me know if my post is difficult to understand Odpowiedz Link
