Learn Irish Gaelic from scratch. Or relearn it with its real sounds. The Patchy Method.
No previous knowledge of Gaelic necessary, as we'll get you from naught to twenty within the first hour.
Also ideal for building on what you know and practicing, all the while obtaining the correct pronunciation of Gaelic's own proper phonemes, and we'll hopefully rid you of all the wrong ones that so many learners have ended up acquiring, through the ignorance of so many teachers.
Tools needed for this hi-tech session of language acquisition:
1. Plenty blank paper, be it copybooks (notebooks) or loose sheets, A4 size or smaller.
2. Some coloured crayons, pens and/or pencils.
3. A nice cup of tea or coffee, and. . .
4. Forget everything you already know (or think you know), certainly with regards to pronunciation.
I will say each phrase twice.
This gives your brain a better anchor on the sounds and their context.
Then whatever I say that you don't understand, repeat it.
Keep observing until you notice what I do.
Keep listening, not caring much what it means, parrot-fashion.
Then imitate it and repeat again.
Repeat, repeat, repeat.
You'll eventually understand what I'm requesting by observing me doing it.
Then whatever I say that you DO understand, again repeat it, and also imitate it.
Repeat, repeat, repeat.
We're on a mission to get Gaelic its old traditional inherited integral sounds back in common use, and not just a code-speak based on the phonemes of English.
Feel free to contact me on Skype, under Solsti Solsti.
Best wishes,
Patchy.

Or some other non-Indo-European language. Or maybe the Irish always spoke "Aryan" and it evolved into Irish.
