About Irish Language
According to Wikipedia.org, Irish is the official language of Ireland but there are Irish speakers in UK, USA, and Canada too. According to the census in 2016, around 1.76 million people speak Irish. There are around three main dialects of the Irish language. It involves Munster (An Mhumhain), Connacht (Connachta) and Ulster (Ulaidh). This language is written in Ogham alphabets while it also features Gaelic script. If we talk about the modern Irish it is written with a combination of Latin words. The spellings don’t reflect the pronunciation of various alphabets. For example ‘bia’ is known as food in English. This can change in some other dialects especially in the Munster pronunciation. There are a lot of irregularities seen in both spellings and pronunciations.
