Poll: the irish for "i like cake"

[Spaceman_Spiff]

Its spelt "as Ghaeilge".

 

[Zangamarth]

there's no irish language... do you mean Gaelic?

 

[Radeonx]

What is the point of this thread? There is next to no discussion, and overall, non Ireland dwellers are bound to speak it. There are a lot of people in the world.

 

[Silly_Billy]

I'm an American and as an American I reserve the right to be ignorant of your culture and language. Speak English... American-English. Just Kidding.

I have no idea I just guessed. Are the wrong answers in Irish or are they gibberish?

 

[wewontdie11]

The closest I get to speaking Irish is being drunk.

Nah I don't speak the lingo. Don't know any foreign languages.

 

[sky14kemea]

Uhh... "I like cake."

Unless you actually mean Gaelic, then I can't help :/

 

[Lukeje]

Pogue Mahone!

...if it's good enough for The Pogues as their original name...

...it contains no reference to cake though. And it's the only gaelic I know.

 

[Cargando]

Nope, Irish is deader than Welsh.

 

[DannyBoy451]

I did Scottish Gaelic in school for years, they're kinda related.

I'm guessing it's "is maith liom caca milis", since it's the only one I don't understand.

Cymraeg is still alive...

North. There are a fair few villages around up here where you're likely to be thrown out of town for speaking English...

Really? Oh well, I'm in Anglesey and the general view is, that just because the old girl's still twitching doesn't mean she's still alive.

 

[quiet_samurai]

Finnegan's Wake anyone?

 

[The Sandwich]

It's 'pog mo thoin/thon'. Pog mo phon doesn't make sense.

Besides, who wants to learn how to say they like cake? Learn some better shit like 'You're gay with a cactus' or 'I want to throw shit at you'. ('Ta tu aerach leis an cachtus' and 'Ba maith liom ag caitheamh cac agat' for those who're interested.)

Huh, that's odd. I know a couple of fluent Welsh speakers from Anglesey, but that was a couple of years ago. Maybe things have changed drastically, or maybe you just don't frequent the right pubs (not that I really care; I hate the damn language... well, not necessarily the language, but that we were forced to take it right up until GCSE level... damn South-Walians governing us).

 

[Epitome]

His statements are in order

3]Kiss my ass
4]Up up and away
