Irish name pronunciation crash course


Find the pronunciation of Irish names, based on spelling, to be confusing? Then this ~1 minute video with 6 quick rules is for you! This isn't exhaustive (I've a more detailed video that goes into the rules in more depth here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DU9w9qLynwE ), but it should help you most of the time to fix the biggest problems you might face when it comes to how to say names of people from Ireland! Please keep in mind that I had to skip a LOT to make this video as short as it is, so feel free to leave comments on my more in-depth video (already more than a half a million views!) if I don't cover it there! I referenced some other links, so be sure to check out my page on Irish resources here: http://ift.tt/2DAMyua And here is a playlist of videos about learning Irish and videos that I've made IN Irish (with subtitles): https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLSQr1fqNSIPJcNw0OwoTZwn9_tf9VtafW Enjoyed this video?
