Does anyone know of a free way to learn Irish Gaelic.... I'm not looking for a translator, but anyway to study it, like a free download or what not..... Anything would help.... Thanks....

Google...Resources/Grammar links to the left...Dictionaries link (left) for vocabulary...This forum, you can look at translations to see how they are constructed and whatnot.

But remember we are not here to teach you Irish -- some people areunder that impression

what Conor means to say is, feel free to lurk around here all you like and ask questions if you're stuck, but there are also Irish learning forums like
Daltaí na Gaeilge
Gaeilge-B
Gaeilge-L
Beo!

(type any of those in Google and you'll get the updated links to them)

For an intro to the sounds of Irish, I recommend http://www.fiosfeasa.com/bearla/language/intro.htm
They are a commercial site but they have one of the best descriptions of Irish phonetics on the internet with soundfiles.

Thank you so much for yoour help!!
