A Whombat , I have just found out you are the person responsible for Chans Elie . Is that right ?
If so :worship: :worship: :worship: :worship: :clapping: :clapping: :clapping: :clapping: :gut: :gut:

I use that a lot and find it very very helpful . The premade lists are great but the best feature for me is being able to compile my own words.

When I learn a new verb I put all the tenses of that verb into its own list , which in itself is a good way to remember , then a couple of days later I go back and try answering the programmes . again thank you .
A dull fact is much better than an inspired guess
so double-check my translations

Yes, An phoblachtach, I wrote Seans Eile. I am always thrilled to hear from anyone who uses and enjoys it. I am working on more products, and I hope to release an adventure game (as Gaeilge!) before the summer, so keep an eye on my website. Or better yet, send me your email address and I will notify you when the game is released.

When I finish the adventure game, I hope to add some new features to Seans Eile, including some new modules.

I cant wait to see what you come out with . I will send you an email through private message and would be delighted to be informed of what you are doing .

I think the reason I was so pleased with Chans Eile was that I found it at a time when I was giving serious thought to chucking it all in as I felt overwhelmed by what seemed to me to be impondrable heights of language learning , it just seemed too much and the resources I had at the time didnt inspire me . But you helped me put a bit of fun back into it and it didnt seem such a tall order after all becuase I could see certain patterns of the langauge emerging. I've been back to dispondency since then and Im sure I will return to it again sometime but at least now I know learning Irish is difficult but not impossible.
Meabh is right this does sound a bit like a sycophantic epiphany but its from the heart. Cheers pal.



Ps How will you get the cash bribe to me? :mrgreen:

Méabh's comment about cleanup on aisle 5 was in reference to some spam messages which have since been deleted, not about your post!

Psst: The check is in the mail.

The only thing to think about "applying" on a day like this should be massage oil or chocolate body paint :bgdev:
