@Jamal Conor Yea, been using Flixzone for since november myself :D

Excelente ....me parece que lo primero en aprender un idioma , es deje de pensar que tiene que ser perfecto al principio..

This is definitely one of the best speeches about learning another language!

I love learning new languages❤

Thank you. This was inspiring. This will make me go back and try again.

I have been through the same situations and i understand her! That's so useful she is amazing 💙

Great talks! Very useful for someone who is willing to learn something new.

Wonderful talk. Brilliant and helpful, too. So much to learn from such an attitude. Thanks.

Loved it! Thank You!!

Oh my God, that was so great. Love this saving it to playlist now.

Áine. You are - and always will be - wonderful. John

I completly agree with her the most thing disable us to speak secound language is the fear to make mistake and being judged from other no one is perfect and does not make mistakes and the learning prosses is so hard . So let's get rid of fear or doubt self and we have to express our self freely and make mistakes this is the only way to learn and improve our level

I love this

Great talk and best sense of humor! (English is my third language)!

I thinks she’s great 👍🏻

You are the best ever TED

Thank u Ted ✖

That is good

Both my great grandparents from county mayo spoke Gaelic to each other as their own private language so the kids couldn't listen in so my nan used to tell me . My nan was born in Liverpool in England in 1907 she passed away in 2006. Her dad emigrated on his own when he was nine to Liverpool in 1800's and later met my great nan in Ireland and brought her over where they settled for life though he wanted to go America were his older brother s had gone before him .But my great nan feared she would never see what was left of her family . Apparently you couldn't speak Gaelic In England or at least it was frowned upon .it's a shame it wasn't passed on. My nans husband was born and raised in Ireland he was from county cork , Mitchell's town I think but passed away when my mum was nine , he was a miner and sadly got cancer I never thought to ask neither did my mother if he spoke Gaelic or his family . My father's side are all Irish descent too but again I don't know if they spoke Gaelic , they were just trying to get by in the slums in Liverpool when they would have arrived and on docks. My father's passed so can't really dig and Irish records etc don't go back very far .People should be proud in Ireland and keep the beautiful language going . I know how sad my family were to leave as they had no choice and how sad to not be able to keep there mother tongue for social and political reasons . If we wish to learn now we may be called plastic paddies .so sad , having to leave because of reasons beyond there control and then trying to fit in only place they can afford to live were the heritage they tried to maintain they were so proud of is oppressed to a degree by Their new country and then later mocked by mother land as not being good enuogh either or plastic when they were just maintaining that proud and nostalgic love for their home that's really staunchly carried as I know there grief was so strong for leaving . Keep up learning languages and don't belittle those who try to learn yours . Keep it up as others didn't get that privilege.

Hello Ramon. Yes, she is lovely. Her family home is just a one minute walk from where we live. She is a bit shy, but is also incredibly funny. We went to a live show of hers here in Dublin a few years ago, and at the end we ached from laughter.

Nice

Go raibh maith agat do sé sin. Is mac léin mé as Gailge i MN agus seo é an rud é. Is Gaeltacht beag muid anseo....ach... Labhraíonn muid Gaeilge agus tá muid ag foghlaim an teanga. I might have f'ed a lot of that up with the grammar... but that is the point of this TedTalks - I'm learning the Connemara dialect and appreciating my encounters with the other dialects with shows like Ros na Rún, in watching TG4, and listening to RTÉ. There is a learning curve and a progression of learning with any language. And at points you get to have a perspective of Celtic state of mind with Gaeilge- smugairle róin.... if I did it right, jellyfish is translated as seal snot. and wolf...mac tíre- son of the land.... ríomhaire- computer.... back in the medieval day that was the person who calculated when events like Easter would happen. There is humor, a rich history, and a perspective to be experienced with this language, like with any language.

I've learned to hate speaking/communicating in the foreign languages of Python, Java, & C++ with the ONE other person on the planet (a close relative) who understands these languages at all. He has caused me to absolutely HATE computer programming and taught me NEVER to discuss programming languages with him or anyone else ever again.

so thankfu;

Hello!, I'm a native Spanish speaker, and I'm looking for a native English speaker to speak with frequently, in both languages, via Discord, Skype, or other, to improve our speaking skills. If there is someone interested, we can fix something.

Usted tiene razón Hai ragione Tá an ceart agat Du hast Recht Vous avez raison You are right. The above are the languages I speak. Four of them I speak fluently. And I get by in the other two. Happily I do not get embarrassed about making a mistake and blithely sail without a care through the many awkward moments. I greatly appreciated Áine's presentation. Maith an cailín thú a Áine, agus an Ghaeilge Abú!

I speak 3rd language, and I'm terribly terrified

As Gaeilge I tried to ask someone if they were bored but instead asked them if they were boring. (An bhfuil leadrán ort / an bhfuil tú leadránach). Slightly awkward…

FR - Je vous écris ce commentaire en français : Bonjour. Mademoiselle Gallagher nous a raconté dans cette vidéo une histoire drôle, à savoir, celle d'un malentendu linguistique dû au fait qu'elle s'en est servie d'un mot en gaélique irlandais tout en voulant s'en servir d'un autre. Cela a complètement changé la signification de la phrase dans ladite langue. Ici, portant, il se passe la même chose dans la minute 10:00. Le traducteur s'est trompé en français sur la signification de l'adjectif « excitant ». Croyez-moi, je suis navré de devoir vous le signaler, mais pour un francophone, ce mot a souvent des connotations sexuelles : « être excité » équivaut à avoir envie de faire l'amour, et ce qui est décrit comme « excitant » l'est justement parce qu'il est perçu comme susceptible d'éveiller ce désir chez quelqu'un. Un désir sensuel, érotique, charnel. Il aurait fallu traduire la phrase autrement, en prenant un synonyme du genre enthousiasmant, captivant, passionnant, etc.

The funny part is that what she talk about as a huge achievement is a thing that is just normal for any non english native speaker. We learn english as second or third language and then some more.

If you knew the history of Ireland, you would know why this is perceived as a huge achievement. Ireland is the only country in Europe not to have its native language as its first language, thanks to the British.

@cigh7445

@@Alenarien It's not perceived as a huge achievement by Irish speakers. Only monolingual people think it's a massive achievement. And her Irish isn't too impressive, her pronounciation is (like most people's I suppose) very anglicised and she makes grammar mistakes. This is fair enough, she is a learner, but the only learners I'm impressed by are those who are difficult to tell apart from native speakers

Where did you get that idea from the video. I didn’t get any impression she’s trying to overstate or understate anything. Just don’t let the fear of making mistakes stop you from trying to learn a second language.
