And I love this quote on the front page:

Rich in its complexity, soulful in its expression and resonantly inspirational, the Irish language, too often perceived as a burden, is as important to our identity as the very land upon which it is spoken. Life without it would seem empty and unfulfilled — with it we nurture our sense of place. - Fiachna Ó Braonáin ó THE HOTHOUSE FLOWERS


This site has loads of good stuff.

"Now You're Talking"
by Deirbhile Ní Churraighin & Eamonn Ó Donaill
€44.92 from www.eason.ie
ISBN:0717123499

The prise includes workbook and 3 tapes. Tapes 4 and 5 can be bought separately. This book concentrates on the Ulster dialect which is why I'm very biased towards it. Smile A television series was also produced to accompany it and was broadcast on RTÉ and BBC NI years ago. (you should see the clothes they wear!) Anyway, you can buy it on video but I don't know where from. I think that, by far, Now You’re Talking is one of the best self Irish tutors around. Smile

A good grammer book, again I'm being biased, is:
"New Irish Grammar"
by The Christian Brothers
€8.84 from www.eason.ie
ISBN: 0714412988

If you want to come to Ireland and learn Irish then I'm going to be biased again and say you should come to the University of Ulster Very Happy
