Tá mé dearmad ar mo chuid Gaeilge. áfach, Is cuimhin liom dánta, mar shampla Cuireadh 'annois teacht an Earraigh' agus cinn eile. Cad fút féin?

At this stage of my life I do not like the Irish language. The main users are the govt. Depts ( especially on their automated phone systems) and Rte. Of course the ordinary guy uses a cupla focal on holidays as a secret code type thing. So who needs it?

[Buachaillbeag]

It is not about needing it it is about our nationhood.

Explain!!!

[Buachaillbeag]

I don't need I just have an intrinsic sense of nationhood

Ta gaeilge agam agus is maith liom an teanga

Simply: the patriotic Gaelic phrase "Erin go Bragh"...

It separates us from the English, most countries like the Irish!

I agree with the secret code bit!
