Is buíon de cheoltóirí é Trá Pháidín a bhfuil a bhaile, anam agus meabhair scaipthí idir Conamara Theas, Cathair Chorcaí, Uíbh Fhailí, Sligeach, Port Láirge ó 2019. Ag tarraingt uaidhe thobar an cheoil traidisiúnta, an jazz, folk agus ar pé tionchar eile a mbeadh cuma mhaith air sna cur síos, ach a n-uathúlacht féin á chaomhnú acu atá i bhfad ó aon fios ar an saol thart orthu ná iad fhéin. Is socra fós a gcur chuige chun úrcheol Gaelach a cruthú atá níos fairsinge ná an “conas atá tú?”.

Le Cloch ‘s Claí, a gcéad cheirnín leis an lipéid Sasanach World of Echo, déantar fiosrúcháin ar na críocha is aineola fós dóibh. Bunaithe ar seanchas claíochaí bána, tugann an t-albam seo léargas aorach ar an ngaol idir Éireann, a teanga dúchais agus an Ghaeltacht. 10 rian atá uirthi, chuile ceann acu ina ionadaí ar chloch mheafarach, baineann Cloch ‘s Claí feidhm as gnéithe den tobchumadh atá i gceol tradisiúnta na hÉireann, ar nós, an t-ornáideachas, an tionlacan agus focla smartáilte eile a bhfuil breis is trí shiolla iontu. Leis sin, bíonn chuile babhta tógála ar chlaí éagsúil óna chéile mar aon le chuile cur i láthair beo - léiriú é an taifead seo ar chur i láthair amháin acu sin. Agus é spreagtha ag An Béal Bocht ó pheann Mhyles na gCopaleen, cuimsíonn an claí seo téama áiread atá scapthí thar thírdhreach agus aigne na Gaeltachta - cur i gcéill, tithíocht, polatíocht na bpiardaí, chéirtleáine agus a thuilleadh den raic céanna atá le cloisteáil chuile lá ar an raidió. Toradh na tógala seo ná ceol a bhfuil blas de rejunal shtyles in tradishunal muzik, de carraig na Krauts, den snagcheol saor in aisce, den iar-rac, den chrónán agus den íostachas ann, ar bhealach atá nádúrtha, sreabhach agus lán le haimhreas múinte ó Iarthar na hÉireann.

Ar Cloch ‘s Claí agus i dTrá Pháidín tá: Conal Ó hAinmhuighe, Ultan Ó Labhradha, Peadar-Tom Mercier, Micheál Fitzgerald, Pól Ó Lionáird, Ruairí de Búrca. Beidh Cloch ‘s Claí á eisiúint go digiteach agus mar eagrán teoranta LP ar an 25ú lá de mhí Meán Fómhair trí World of Echo. Tá an saothar seo cruthaithe againn le tacaíocht na Dámhachtana Taifeadta DEIS & le tacaíocht ó Ealaín na Gaeltachta

Dia daoibh an daoine, I have an Irish language question I'm hoping you can help me with (I'm from the North and only did a wee bit at school, so I'm a bit stumped)

A friend of mine has just got his Irish citizenship and I'd like to write him a wee card with a congratulations/ welcome message as gaelige - any ideas for nice things to write in there?

I'm thinking something like "welcome, Irishman", except a bit more poetic

Our beautiful Irish language is more consistent than English because it has borrowed less from other languages than English - which is like a magpie!

Irish has been influenced by other languages, including Latin, Old Norse, Norman French, and English.

The Irish word 'Bád' (boat in English) has its origin in the Norse word 'Bátr'.

Focail Gaelach as Lochlainnis ó dhúcas: bád. Is teanga álainn í an Ghaeilge ach bhí tionchair inti ó theangacha eile.

I liked this episode a lot, I thought it captured the multi-factored deterioration of the language playing out over a couple of hundred years.

While #AnGortaMór / #IrishFamine is one of the pivotal events behind the collapse of the language, it is far from the only factor
