Irish Blogs

Tuesday, January 18, 2005 
My mother's sister in Philadelphia can catch 'Ros na Run' and has started taping for me. Low-tech, yes, but still effective. Our email exchanges were interesting. Like my mother's other sister, she thought that Irish was simply the heavily accented Hiberno English that she had heard spoken by Irish immigrants in Philadelphia. Nope, Irish is not even in the same language group as English.

I've heard about how immigrants to the U.S. have learned English by watching American soap operas. Maybe it'll work for me with Irish.

Now this is a beautiful picture of snowfall in Tipperary, Ireland. [ Link from IrishEyes ] Maybe one of these years I'll experience it for myself.

Also, report in from Minnesota CyberBug (AKA my sister June) - it was a mere minus-36 in Bemidji, and school wasn't even cancelled. At minus-13 she takes off the jacket outside, and when they hit the plus side of zero she digs out the bikini. And this is a woman who grew up in sunny Kihei, Maui.
