"Of the 1,761,420 persons who answered yes to being able to speak Irish, 418,420 indicated they never spoke it, while a further 558,608 indicated they only spoke it within the education system. Of the remaining group, 586,535 persons indicated they spoke Irish less often than weekly, 111,473 spoke weekly while just 73,803 persons spoke Irish daily."

73,000, i find that hard to believe.

Don't get me wrong i dealt with native speakers 18 years ago as a kid right at the top of Donegal when in irish college 1 Sumner. But there was only about 400-500inhabitants up there.

Connemara has a population of 30,000 alone, estimated 20,000 to 24,000 still use Irish as a first language, that's just one county too......

No , Dublin dude. I went to 3 different irish colleges in Donegal as a kid. Unfortunately havent been back there since!

The memories!

The problem with Irish and secondary schools, is that it's taught completely the wrong way. It's all about learning poems, stories, etc; basically memorising specific words/sentences that you'll never use again. Very very little of it is about teaching it for conversation. That's what they need to change.
