I'd like to know how i could learn gallic. I found out this language a few months ago only, in listening a song of Clannad. I loved and I wanted to know the meaning of the songs. I try but it is very difficult for me. i'm fond of Clannad and I've many translations of the songs but I'm french and not really good in english. further more, for some songs, translations are different, for exemple (alasdair mac colla). I know gallic isn't used enough in Ireland, but in France, nobody knows! Unfortunately, I don't find dictionnary, books about gallic. I would like to be ready, at least, know a few words because after the high school ( bac en France, I'm 15), I want to travel a lot, and study in ireland. May I have advices please?

I am fortunate as there are gaelic clubs in Australia. However, my method when I cannot get to them is to get an Irish-english dictionary and translate Clannad or Moire's songss. you would need the extra step to translate then to French. French is a gaelic + latin origin language, so it would not be as hard as it may appear. J , Australia.

The other way to learn , is to have a holiday, or work in native pseaking counties, eg Mayo or Donnegal, Clannad country, you are closer than I am in the southern hemisphere,J.

With a name like that, you would appear to be Australian. Try the Gaelic clubs down the eastern seaboard, there are many in victoria, one in Brisbane, one in Surry Hills, Sydney, and/or , have a working holiday in a county in Ireland which speaks galeic, ie those more in the west, J , Australia
