Manchester Irish Language Group

By evankeane

Inniú bhí mé ar suíomh idirlíonn den ionad teangacha ollscoil manchester. Chuardaigh mé le haghaidh cúrsaí Fraincis nó teanga an tSín, nuair a thosaigh mé ag smaoineamh faoi Gaeilge i Sasana(!). Agus cad a cheapann tú?! Tá grúpa ann i Manchester a thabhairt ranganna Gaeilge agus a eagrú imeachtaí sóisealta! Manchester Irish Language Group (Milg) is ainm dóibh. B’fhéidir nach mbeidh mé as cleachtadh le mo chuid Gaeilge i mo chathair nua!

[Today I was on the website of the University of Manchester's Language Centre. I was looking for courses in French or perhaps even Chinese, when i started thinking of the Irish Language, in England. And what do you know - there is a group in Manchester which gives Irish classes and organises social events! The group is cakked Manchester Irish Language Group (Milg). Maybe I will not be out of practice with my Irish in my new city]

    I start there on Tuesday!

    Moving from Gaidhlig to Irish is going to be confusing for me though….

    That will be tricky i reckon. I have found that i can read Gaidhlig to some basic level and get the jist of things (on the scottish wikipedia webpages at least!) but i imagine that the pronunciation is very different and that that would be the biggest difficulty.
    What is it you are doing with Milg?
