  • A long time ago a noble Irishman contacted me and asked if he could help with the animations on GN. Little did he know that one day he would be flown out and FEATURED in his own country's video. Thanks so much Peadar. Not just for your help but friendship as well.

      Ironically, that is exactly how much ancestry from Ireland I have from my Dad's side. The rest is German. Mom has a bit of Ulster Irish ancestry with her main heritage being...English. Also, Dad's family is Catholic, Mom's is Protestant (Baptist). But since I'm from the states, I always say I'm half-Missouri, half-Louisiana.

      And? You’d be surprised what gets passed down, in differing degrees depending on location, with that amount of heritage. On my moms side I have a lot more Irish heritage (probably adding up to a 1/4) but no one really has anything Irish other than looks. On my dads side there’s a lot less Irish but we know there were some and oddly a lot of it has been passed down because they lived in a very isolated rural area. My family there still eats a lot of old Irish inspired meals (I had to trace them because some of them were definitely unusual for the area).
      If people are using their heritage to learn about other countries and other people isn’t that a good thing? Everyone talks about how Americans are ignorant (which, granted, many are) and yet get annoyed when we make an effort to be less so. Frankly I find very few international groups make any effort to understand American culture (I have never met an American who says they are from Ireland, only that they are “Irish “ in ancestry) and it only makes Americans less willing to look beyond their tiny piece of the earth. And I say this as an American making every effort to move out of this country XD

    Originally, Irish surnames never had prefixes but then clans started splitting up and people started using names like “Mac Conchobhair” which means “Son of Conchobhair” and the grandson and all generations coming after that are called “Ó Conchobhair” which means “descendant of Conchobhair”. The prefix “Mac” was kept by some for some reason though. The Nic prefix is the female equivalent to Mac and Ní is the female equivalent to Ó, whenever a woman gets married, she will change the prefix to “Uí” and her surname to her husband's surname. The British came so everyone with an anglicized surname just uses the “Mc” or “O” prefix

    Spaniard here. I’m not surprised about Spanish friendship being mentioned here. North-West Spain (Galicia and Asturias) has Celtic roots. Then Catholic Church happened big in both countries. Many Spaniards choose Ireland over UK to learn English (Never ending grudge with Uk up to this day…cough…Gibraltar…cough…) Basically you’ll never find a Spaniard thrash talking Ireland.
    PS. My HS Senior years School Trip was to the Aran Islands. How about that.

    6:40 It’s kind of the same in Finland, where the Christian missionaries and other religious folks tried to Christianize our summer solstice _(”Ukon vakat”_ or ”Ukko’s bushels”), which was a very pagan holiday and involved lots of drinking and sacrificing beer to _”Ukko Ylijumala”_ (our supreme deity), but they only really managed to change the name into _”juhannus”_ (”St. John’s Day”). The drinking stayed, and is still a key part of our summer solstice (/midsummer).

    Some notes on the Irish language:
    - It is called Gaeilge
    - The Ó prefix in names is for males and for females changes to Ní
    - There is no singular word for yes/no
    - The communities who do speak it are known as Gaeltachts and students will go there to practice during the summer (big deal)
    - All signs and government docs must be issued in English and Gaeilge
    - And finally, it is NOT similar to English so stop saying the pronunciations are stupid or weird, it is LITERALLY a different language!! (Goes for names too like Niamh or Meadbh)

    In my home town of Tralee. We have a festival called of the Rose of Tralee, where a bunch foreigners come and try to become the Rose of Tralee. It is a joke to ask the Roses (the contestants), such as the Americans, "What's the criac?" My young cousin said that to the Chicago Rose and she said, very awkwardly, "Crack is a very bad drug that you should never try." We were falling over each other laughing. But don't worry, I went over to explain it to her and said its sort of an initiation ritual and we were only taken the piss. I believe she won that year became the face of Lí Strand milk for that year.

    I recently spent a week there on a group tour with a Celtic rock quartet from Bundoran called the Screaming Orphans (wonderful ladies!). Yes, it's true that most signage in the Republic is bilingual, but I found out that many signs in County Donegal are Gaelic-Irish ONLY. In Northern Ireland, they're mostly just English.
    And YES, it does rain a good bit. One of our stops was a town called Carlingford that was cleaning up after recent flooding.
    One thing I noticed in the cities of Dundalk and Dublin is the locals seem to be in a hurry quite often.

      I'd never actually heard of that, surprised to find out it's true. Apparently the group was actually composed of all kinds of European immigrants who had deserted the US army (the Irish were the largest contributor of the group). They were evidently motivated by a combination of shared Catholicism (nearly all of them were Catholics) and Mexican promises for better pay and land.
      I swear the Irish always pop up in history where I don't expect them to lol... Evidently the battles against this group were by far the most difficult in the war and, given Irish immigrants constituted a very large portion of US forces, those battles were in a very real way battles between Irish immigrants.

    To any visitor to Ireland, they got the weather wrong. There are about 150 wet days (days with any amount of rain) on the east coast and 225 wet days on the west coast. And those wet days are spread fairly evenly throughout the year. There aren't any dry months here. The joke goes like this: the difference between Summer and Winter in Ireland is that in the Summer, the rain is a litttle bit warmer. Also it's a bit expensive here, about €4 - €5 for a beer. And we don't all drink Guinness. :)
