À propos de cet audio

 Are you ready to supercharge your Irish listening comprehension?

Our podcast is the perfect tool for you. Studies show that the key to mastering a second language is through repetition and active processing.

That's why each episode of our podcast features a story in Irish, followed by a sentence-by-sentence retelling that alternates between Irish and English.

This approach not only allows you to fully understand and absorb the vocabulary and grammar but also provides a bilingual support to aid your listening comprehension. But we don't stop there.

Research in sociolinguistics highlights the importance of culture in language learning, which is why we provide a list of vocabulary words and a transcript of the audio to help you understand the cultural context of the story. And for your convenience, we also include a transcript of the audio to help you refer back to any parts you may have struggled with.

Our podcast is not just for language learners, it's also for travelers or people who wants to connect with their roots. Are you planning a trip to Gaeltacht, Aran Islands, or Dingle Peninsula? Maybe you want to speak Irish with your grandparents from Galway?

Our podcast will provide you with the cultural and linguistic background necessary to fully immerse yourself in regions where Irish is primarily spoken, such as Ireland and Northern Ireland. Our podcast is based on the latest research in linguistics, sociolinguistics,
psychology, cognitive science, neuroscience, and education to provide the most effective method for mastering Irish listening comprehension.

Nílim ach... níl mé ceart."En: He admitted, though reluctantly, "I'm not... I'm just... not okay."Ga: Chuaigh claochlú thréimhseach tríd an ngrúpa.En: A transformative moment passed through the group.Ga: Bhain siad le chéile le Ciarán, agus thosaigh an grúpa ag dul siar síos an cnoc.En: They gathered around Ciarán, and the group began to make their way back down the hill.Ga: Níor chuir Aoife ná Liam rogha ar Ciarán, níor ordaigh siad dó a luigh sa cheann is fearr leo.En: Neither Aoife nor Liam pressured Ciarán, they did not insist he follow their lead.Ga: Mar a bhain siad an íochtar amach, fuair siad áit nua chun stad a ghlacadh ar an mbealach.En: As they reached the bottom, they found a new spot to take a break along the way.Ga: "Seo é mar a fheiceann sé," a dúirt Ciarán le meangadh gáire in ainneoin a laige, ag tabhairt a gceamara amach.En: "This is how it looks," Ciarán said with a smile despite his weakness, taking out his camera.Ga: Bhí an radharc áille.En: The view was beautiful.Ga: Bhí an glanálacht bán an sneachta, an gile, agus na tonnta taobh thíos ag teas lár na Nollag.En: The pure white of the snow, the brightness, and the waves below highlighted the heart of Christmas.Ga: Níor bhain siad an barr amach, ach fuair siad a raibh de dhíth orthu mar sin féin.En: They didn't reach the top, but they found what they needed anyway.Ga: I measc gáire agus sméid-aoibhne, bhí Ciarán buíoch as rud éigin níos luachmhaire ná cinn scríbe críochnaithe: cairde iontaofa.En: Amidst laughter and smiles, Ciarán was grateful for something more valuable than completed destinations: dependable friends.Ga: Bhí siad in ann teacht le chéile, ag ceapadh go raibh sé in ann braith orthu.En: He realized he could rely on them.Ga: D’fhill siad abhaile le chéile, an t-eispéireas nasctha a d’fhoghlaim Ciarán.En: They returned home together, the shared experience teaching Ciarán.Ga: Ní raibh an fhadhb a bhí ann gan chinneadh, ach bhí comhluadar ar a thaobh aici Alá agus Liam.En: The issue wasn't resolved completely, but he had the companionship of Aoife and Liam by his side.Ga: B'ann dóibh éirí níos sona lena chéile, Nollaig ...
