Not great at the Irish language, but much better than he was at throwing an American Football - www.balls.ie/mma/conor-mcgregor-responses-nfl-fans-ridicule-terrible-throw-attempt-398858
Update: better than throwing a baseball
Who gives a flying fook about 'murican football
He's fluent, went to entire 12 years of education in a gaelscoil. Just ooot of practice
And why would he know that? Throwing anything in any ball sport
Irish sounds exactly how I imagine English would sound to a non native speaker.
As a French person, I a bit agree but the Irish sounds more like the language Sims are speaking actually ahah and we can hear the different accent between English and Irish
@Arian Ansari Jam Scottish gaelic. I believe irish gaelige sounds like elfish language.
Irish sounds like English of 15th century
@Parl Kilkington Yes, I believe Irish gaelic was influenced by old norse a lot too, Dublin was established by the norse if im not mistaken.
@Parl Kilkington Yeah, right, even though I'm English I live in the north and it influenced our dialect a lot too, for example when speaking we say "wae yae" instead of "with your" even though the written language is standardized I feel closer culturally to Scots than those fuckers on Downing Street
Sounds like an elven language from lord of the rings lmao

yeah you can just see the smile on his face when the girl asks him the question dope stuff
You're right. It is needless to say. Who hasn't.
Yeah, its always the little moments like these or just his genuine love of martial arts that I appreciate about him. If only his dickery was contained to trashtalk and not assaulting old men at pubs.
No one speaks Irish that's not a language
@serpentinefire921 Okay then what I thought to be ulster irish which I have spoken my whole life mustn't be real bc it isn't a language????
Always a beautiful thing to hear one's mother tongue, no matter where you are in the world. Indigenous languages need to be preserved, not faded away for languages like English. Our mother tongues are a part of our histories, without them we cannot fully exist.
Agreed, although English is the world language, that's why there's English signs in Japan and places in India

Is this the same as Gaelic? Or is Irish a type of Gaelic language the same way Italian and Spanish are romantic languages? Anybody from Ireland here than can help me out?
So Irish (in Irish) is called gaeilge. So basically it’s in the same language family as scots-Gaelic and manx (from the Isle of Man). Often times it’s called “Gaelic” but that’s not entirely accurate. There are few communities that speak Irish as a primary language and most Irish people learn it in school (like Conor)

The worst crime the British "empire" committed on Irish soil was the death of one of the oldest languages in the world.They knew that the one true way to enslave a people is to force them to speak a foriegn language(speaking Irish in public was a death sentence not too long ago).I only can hope that the Irish language can find a way back because it is a rare gem in the Irish treasure that is our island.....the whole of our island including our brothers and sisters still under tyranny in the north.Tiocfaidh ar la
ben dankner ok buddy. what ever you say.
English is Germanic it's a saxonic language
It's also one of the oldest language
And it isn't dead since people are still speaking it
Like Frisian which is also one of the oldest Germanic languages
English belongs to the Germanic branch of the IE tree, no doubt. But the English we know isn't that old. It's a mash-up of Old English (TRULY a Germanic lang.) and French (after the Norman Conquest) with lots of Latin loanwords (and loanwords from other languages). Add in the "great vowel shift" in the 1400's -- why our vowels are pronounces so differently from almost all other European languages -- and you get Modern English, from about 1500 to today.
Interestingly enough, the more basic the things you talk about (blood, house, father, love, life, death, fight) the more Germanic the vocabulary -- the more "artistic" or "scientific" the conversation, the more French, Latin, Greek come into play.
The magnificent creep
I'm half south -west European Dutch/Frisian
But I'm born in The Hague
And half South American creol which is black
The real first black people
So I'm the purest from of white and black in one body
However the Irish where once Gaelic people
Invaded by the normans in the 5th century
They were more considered as outsiders
They are Gaelic/normans they are white.
However just like all the Germanic tribes
Very isolated .. but they are white.
I am a real Rhine land bastard
Hitler would call me that hehehe
A real half blood the abomination of Europa
So I can tell if certain cultures struggle like me
Against the full blood white
And Ireland isn't much different
As Scotland and the Netherlands
Same struggle same old wars
For independence against so many nations
So you were considered white
But you were also considered as the weak
barbarians. Which means outsider
You see Europeans thrive on the conquest
of other tribes if the bigger neighbor
Thinks that you weak or easy to be controlled
They will march their armies
However they were wrong
they thought they the smaller nations were weak..
So the Irish are white
But they are outsiders different cultures
All Europeans are basically white
So from a European perspective
I consider the Irish white
The magnificent creep
You can also call me a half Saxon
or in old words Sahson or saksen
If you want to get deeper into my white roots

@@fradrake11 thats actually pretty sad im sad
@@javiermelendez1893 it is but hating on English people for the actions of their government is madness. For Irish people today it is up to us to Educate ourselves when it comes to learning our native tongue. Here in the north of Ireland there are 29 Irish medium schools and also a large number of Irish medium schools which are attached to English medium schools. I know from personal experience they do real well. It's crazy how quickly children become fluent in Irish and also because they gain great listening skills they then go on to pick up a third language. For me personally it's not political but a part of our culture I really wanted to get back. I am also learning to play the Bodhran (drum ) and hope to pick up the Uileann pipes in the future too.

Just so everyone knows it's not Gaelic it's IRISH.
nope it's GAYLIC😂
+Hook Up lmao
it should be Irish Gaelic, as opposed to other Gaelic language spoken in Scotland or Wales.
Just to clear it up as I'm probably the only Irish person here, Gaelic is the sport played by each county in Ireland the most popular sport essentially football. The language is Irish, but spelled Gaeilge in Irish, which means Irish.
It's called Irish in English and Gaeilge in Irish.

Serfdomftw Northern Ireland if you’re from the republic which should just be called Ireland and the north shouldn’t be called the north, not too long ago it was a death sentence to speak Irish to play Irish sports like hurling and Gaelic it was a death sentence to go to school and learn it was a death sentence to go to church we were oppressed go check your facts again bud you are totally wrong and are full of disregard and disrespect when it comes to Irish history honestly ur some fool
Yeah over here we have schools where you're not allowed to speak English and everything is learned through Irish from day 1 so as to make the students fluent speakers from a young age instead of only knowing Irish as a broken second language. The one Conor mentioned was Colaiste de Hide but once students are finished with school, a lot of them lose their fluency as Irish won't really be spoken anywhere else
@@hashim4535 was it fuck lmfao it was the Spanish in the 1600s then in the 1700s the French and in the 1980s the lybians, Gaddafi sent us loads of surface to air missiles RPG 7s AK 47s and cemtex which came in very handy against Billy Brit!

@@TheLouisianan I was born in Kazakhstan which was a Federal Republic within the Soviet Union. Now it is an independent state, with Kazakh as it's national language. Most ethnic Kazakhs in urban areas cannot speak Kazakh properly and Russian is definitely the most used language outside of official government functions. We are talking about one language which is supposed to be the native language of the majority ethnic group, with full Kazakh language school curricula. Dagestan on the other hand is an autonomous republic within Russia. Avar is a minority language not just in Russia but within Dagestan as well. It is one of many languages native to Dagestan, where Russian is the lingua franca. In most schools education in local languages spoken by some thousand people is limited or not even available. That's even true for languages like Tatar with millions of speakers. Minority ethnic groups form approximately 20% of Russian population but 97% of pupils attend Russian language only schools.

For anyone who doesn’t know the last thing he said in Irish was actually asking to use the bathroom which he probably remembers because it’s one of the first things you’re taught in Irish class (at least for me it was) which I find kinda funny because it’s one of the only things I remember how to say in Irish as well
Lol he thought it was only going to be one easy question in Irish, he was so happy after the first question and then she wanted him to continue in Irish
“Lessons are always available” iykwim
He has never been more relatable to me honestly
Always the best brother 🇮🇪😎
He started speaking Irish the same way I spoke to my teacher whenever I was asked to repeat a lesson I was taught
good effort from him, fair play
It's like me with nanticoke. When we go to English speaking schools we start to forget. Never forget
This is the Conor I remember! Fresh and ready to rumble!
This guy was so humble back then..
Sportivation 1 Money man in over quantity can fuck a man up that’s why I respect Khabib because with so much money he kept his Daghestani/Islamic values so it’s simple Conor needs to go to church more and reconnect with God and be humble just like Tyson Fury
@@Gabpt Exactly!
He was always bsing and bligarding his way to the top dont be fooled
Fuck being humble💯
@@Gabpt reconnect with an imaginary fairy tale character? Lmao 😂
Seeing alot of comments like "didn't even realise the Irish people had their own language"
It's called Gaeilge for anyone who would like to know 😊 not Gaelic, as it's commonly known.
Thank you! I would love to learn more about it. I find native languages and indigenous cultures really intriguing and it’s a damn shame that many of them are lost today because of oppression
@@MORGN when the British invaded years ago. The language was nearly lost because the British art that time didn't allow the language to be spoken. Half Irish, half Australian and a quarter Chinese so I know the feeling for indigenous languages too 🙂
@@iamnomad6001 I'm reading more about it now and I'm glad to hear that many Irish people are trying to keep it alive. It's kind of the same situation in my country Morocco. We the native people are called Amazighs (Berbers) and we have our own language, culture, and history but we were invaded by the Arabs and they have been trying to Arabize us ever since. Our language is thousands of years old but they were trying to make it disappear...it only became officially in 2011 through a new constitution...but it's still ignored. Indigenous languages are true beautiful gems that need to be preserved.
@@MORGN wow! Well make you keep it going brother!
@Shelley Garman apparently so! Haha, that spelling of Gaelic is a bit off. Plus, I haven't heard a single Irish person say Gaelic when referring to the language. Gaeilge (or Irish) is the language.👍
He’s been speaking English for so long
That's awesome. That's sad that it can be lost. Being multilingual is so fun. 🤘🏻😁
he looks like someone who's blessed with invulnerability to all threats physical or magical.
Matthew Rendenm but Conor is blessed with invulnerability to all threats, physical or magical
What he said is.....
I will hit his head with my foot,
4 seconds into round 1.
Can I go to the toilet?
4 minutes into round 1
