In an effort to get in touch with my (perhaps more distant than I'm willing to admit) Celtic heritage, I'm trying to learn some Irish Gaelic in a project for my AP Brit Lit class. On the way, I'll teach you, my devoted and limited audience, a few terms, and maybe a bit of culture or history here and there. Slainte!

This is Embarrassing...
As the title this week suggests, I'm a little embarrassed by my work this week. I didn't really have time to do anything to study or brush up on my Irish at all. So, I really don't have anything to say about how it's been going, or a word lesson that I studied. I guess this really lights a fire under me to blow ya'll away next week. A word lesson for this week (that I may or may not be looking up while I'm typing) is hifreann (HIF-reh-un) which means ¨hell¨. So, if I don't have a much more interesting story next week, you can always leave the comment, ¨Go hifreann leat¨ to tell me just how you feel. Thanks for your patience, and slainte!
