Happy Paddy's Day Totalfreedom people
For those that don't know, St Patrick's day is the day we celebrate some Welsh bloke, as an Irish person i honestly have no clue why, I just know he came over and got rid of all the snakes. It is celebrates St Patrick and Christianity arriving in Ireland.
What I like most about this day is the celebration of Irish culture, or what's left of it. From Irish dancing and traditional Irish music, there is a lot of it. Our language is something we are really trying to save as it is quickly dying, the majority of people assume that english is Ireland's national language when really its Irish - Gaeilge. Use this day to learn some Gaeilge!!
dia duit (deea dwuit) - hello
conas atá tú? (cunas atah too) - how are you?
tá mé go maith (tah mey guh mah) - i am good
go raibh maith agat (guh reav mah agat) - thank you
slán (slawn) - bye
and pls i beg of you, its not st pattys day. In ireland we dont celebrate st paddys day as the rest of the world does, yeah there's a few parades but not much.
