For the love of Gaeilge (Irish)

From Far Beyond Designs

Three phrases that hubby found here that I love. I'm not a big fan of simply reposting, but with my new goal to learn as much Irish as my mind will absorb (which is shamefully little) I am trying to expose myself to as much as possible.

PHRASE: cuimhnigh i gconai
PRONOUNCED: cweeve-nee ih go-nee
MEANING: Always remember 

 PHRASE: Is fearr Gaeilge briste, na Bearla cliste
PRONOUNCED: iss far gale-geh brishteh naw bear-elh clish-teh
MEANING: Broken Irish is better than clever English 

 PHRASE: Ni tir gan teanga
PRONOUNCED: nee tier gon tyan-geh
MEANING: No nation/land without a language
