seachtain na gaeilge

[CMcG]

About 20 years ago, I had a pitiful command of phrasebook Gaelic, but I'm sorry to say that it has since degraded to pub phrases only.

In honour of Seachtain na Gaeilge I've downloaded and started reading Lady Augusta Gregory's curated text of Cuchulain. If I can get to pronounce half of the names right, I'll be happy For anyone who hasn't seen it, there is a free internet archive called Sacred Texts containing a healthy Celtic section of myths, poems, epics, stories, etc. They even have a few offerings in Gaelic, for those who would like to practice reading:

And here is a somewhat more scholarly (also free) database including many texts in Irish:
