Has there always been a 2 day time lag on the statistic releases from the Department of Health? I don't recall this being mentioned before.

well I hope they can get back asap and put my license money to good use

Do you really consider Fair Shitty to be good use of your licence fee money? I don't know of any other soap that features such heavy product placement either.

They also haven't been testing as much as an advanced country ought to be in order to catch the actual number of cases. So the curve isn't actually all that representative of reality.

I'm inclined to agree. The death toll figure is a more reliable indicator at the moment unfortunately.

no mate I was being sarcastic

Aw, I was hoping that you'd be a Fair City lore expert.

impressive, how come you never have conversations here in Irish?

Just curious, why did you make it your mission to come to these threads and berate the Irish for speaking English?

I just find it weird how these West Brits are so patriotic about Ireland and such even though they won't even bother to learn their own language

Why should you share a general with West Brits?

We don't have the numbers to sustain that sort of split.

Why the fuck can we never just have a thread without autists trying to ruin it? When it's not y*kesanon it's the finn or the scot or le ebin /brit/ raids.

We're partially to blame for it ourselves. We don't keep the general active enough so when a shitposter arrives, it is easy to for them to derail the thread.

We take the bait way to easy

Shitposting tends to happen a lot more when there's a vacuum of discussion. Let's try to come up with topics to fill that void. I'll start.

I think the Department of Education should introduce Welsh and Scottish Gaelic as Leaving Cert subjects. Both to show solidarity to our fellow Celtic languages and their governments might return the favour with teaching Irish. I think the similarity of Scottish with Irish will help students learn essentially double the Gaeilge that they would have otherwise.

>I think the Department of Education should introduce Welsh and Scottish Gaelic as Leaving Cert subjects
Nobody will learn them and there are no teachers to teach them. I think we should focus on the Irish problem for the moment.

Is it because we're just that bored?

We can't even effectively teach our own and you want to introduce more?

What did /éire/ discuss in the past? Before the era of low effort shitposting.

>Nobody will learn them
You realise that our curriculum, even in Junior Cert, includes Latin and Ancient Greek. Not even modern Greek, just ancient. A subject that is only of any use to someone who wants to study ancient Greece in university. There are many more jobs available in Celtic cultural organisations than there are in a specific area of historical study.

>there are no teachers to teach them
Fluent Gaelgóirí should be able to brush up on Scottish without too much trouble, but you raise a good point. Still the option should be there for students who wish to study it by themselves. It's not required to actually take the classes in school to sit an exam for a subject after all.

>I think we should focus on the Irish problem for the moment
As I said, the similarity of Scottish will help those learning it to bolster a gcuid Gaeilge.

It's no different from learning any other third language such as French and German. If anything it would be better to learn the languages more closely related to our own. I'm not saying these would be required subjects either, just available to those who wish to learn them. It would also reward Gaelgóir students by giving them an easy subject to A1. At the moment our language system rewards immigrant students more easily since they can take their native language as a subject and ace it with ease.

Welsh yes, Scottish no. It should be folded into an un-"reformed" Irish, with all the dialects taught separately.

Just ban English and make every sign and media in Ireland remove all traces of English and replace it in Irish, and then have the schools teach Scottish Gaelic and Welsh. I think they should add Breton for muh celtic unity too as it's the only other celtic language that survived (maybe also teach Cornish and manx for the laugh)

This but unironically.

You're bringing back bad memories for me with that pic. I remember eating a load of them when my grandmother gave me a tub to take home with me and then feeling incredibly sick afterwards.
