I've heard from about ten who want to go with _Learning Irish_, a
chapter every two weeks. Next Friday I'll post a message in Irish
based on Chapter 1. Two weeks from today Sean will. Any volunteers
for Chapter 2 three and four weeks from today? Post questions on the
book or our messages to G-L. Keep all as short as possible. Always
use ELEM IG subject heading, please. This allows G-L members to
skip over our messages. Tim suggested we post answers to lessons
over G-L instead of checking with back of book (in other words use
each other instead of answers in back of book). I'm not sure how
this would work unless only one of did that and all the others make
corrections?? Clarify, Tim. For those who indicated a desire to
work with ELEM IG but do not have the _Learning Irish_ book, I
would suggest ordering it and then we will catch you up with us. The
author is Mícheál ó Siadhail (those slashes are accents above the
preceding letter). This will go slow for some of you, but the slower
pace will help some others keep up. I, myself, have about 10 minutes
per day I can spare on this. By Christmas, the messages we post every
Friday should be so much more interesting than these initial ones. We
have to crawl before we walk. So next Friday, here comes Irish message
number one. Perhaps it shall be a question(s), that you will have to
answer on Elem IG of course. And if Saint Dorothy from Canada be
listening, perhaps she swoop in and help us out from our tangles
time to time (above: she'll). In the meantime, I'll write and see
if Tosaigh Maigh is still available somewhere.
Go raibh míle maith agat. STOP. I'll be issuing a message next week
based on Chapters 1 & 2 (1 being mostly phonetics).
