School hours are short enough for this to be a statutory subject.
The other issue I laugh at is whomever is responsible for keeping it live and creating
new translated words is somewhat lacking in originality.---- eg --
CUP OF TEA = CUPAN TAE
CONDOM = CONDAM
AIRPORT = AERFORT
HELICOPTER = HEILEACAPTAR
FFS , and that was just the first few words I looked up.
An awful lot of Irish people I talk to are struggling with the Prime language let alone
learning Irish.
My maths teacher used to say --- Pytagoras`s Teorem
