Hope you enjoy this week's episode comparing two Celtic languages that are sometimes forgotten about! Manx is a critically endangered language spoken in the Isle of Man, while Irish, which for many centuries was the main language of the Irish people, had its number of speakers decline since the 18th century.

Daniel btw, when you said 'ceathair', just to listen to it it did sound like you said 'cathar'. The e beside the c marks it as a slender c, so you should look up how to make the consonant sounds of Irish. It's sadly standard that schools and colleges don't actually teach the native phonology of the language, so the emerging new speaker Irish varieties have a phonology based on English instead. The difference between cathair and ceathair is the slender c (the r should have been the slender r sound too, going by the spelling given). I say this not to criticise, but just as a comrade if you will who wants to help. The native sounds of the Irish language are endangered and if educated and intelligent young people like yourself (with lovely Cork accents to boot) were to learn and practice the native phonology it would really mean a lot to those of us who are educated on and care about this issue.

I know that Cathair comes from the Proto-Celtic Katrix, meaning a military fort while Shahr comes from the Proto-Iranian Xšathram, cognate to the Avestan Xšathra - Kingdom; the Sanskrit Kśatra - Dominion, Rule, Power, Government and Kśatriya - Lord, Nobleman; and the Greek Ktēsis - Property, Ktēma - a possession, piece of property, and ktáomai - to get, receive, obtain. These all come from the PIE root tek/tkeh and is cognate to the Irish techtaim - I possess/own. I'm pretty sure Katrix and Xšathram aren't related, however.

@@Dan-vz7xu In the 18th century, historians discovered exciting proof of Phoenician-Celtic ties. An ancient Roman dramatist, Titus Maccius Plautus (died 184 B.C.) wrote a play, the Penulus, in which he placed then-current Phoenician into the speech of one of his characters. In the 18th century, linguists noticed the great similarity between that Phoenician and the early Irish Celtic language. In the adjacent box is a sample given by historian Thomas Moore's, History of Ireland, showing the connection between these languages. Leading 18th and 19th century scholars, such as Gen. Charles Vallancey, Lord Rosse, and Sir William Betham, also wrote on this subject. Vallancey, for instance, speaks of, "The great affinity found in many words, nay whole lines and sentences of this speech, between the Punic [Phoenician] and the Irish."

pronunciation is very close to Ulster Irish. Both Ulster and Manx sound more foreign to me as I'm from the Midlands of Ireland and I cannot get my head around how Ulster Irish puts a 'u' sound on the end of words where I'm used to a '..mh' or 'v' sound. I'm thinking the Irish people that went to Mann and brought their language were most likely from the North East coast of Ireland with the Ulster dialect. Just seems logical.... but I'm open to correction :)

In Connemara, they often don't pronounce the "d" in madra and it is so similar to the Manx. Also, "n" is sometimes pronounced like an "r", "cnoc" is more cruc, again very similar to Manx.
