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.

Mhais?En: Was the struggle worth it? Really?Ga: Thóg Niamh anáil dhomhain eile.En: Niamh took another deep breath.Ga: Sin é!En: That's it!Ga: D'fhéach sí ar an gabhar, agus shíl sí faoin suaimhneas a bhí á lorg aici.En: She looked at the goat and thought about the peace she was seeking.Ga: Bhí contrárthacht uirthi, ach éirigh mé le smaoineamh úr.En: She felt conflicted, but she managed to come up with a fresh idea.Ga: “In áit é sin, rachfaidh mé ag an ngaoth," a smaoinigh sí.En: "Instead of this, I'll go with the wind," she thought.Ga: Léim an gabhar le greann, díreach os cionn Niamh, agus thuirling sé ina spota machnaimh.En: The goat leaped playfully, right over Niamh, and landed in her meditation spot.Ga: Rinne sí gáire neart as a chéile.En: She laughed heartily.Ga: Níorbh é an aisling a bhí aici, ach ba rud nua agus iontach é fós.En: It wasn't the dream she had, but it was still something new and wonderful.Ga: Thosaigh sí ag mothú rud éigin difriúil.En: She began to feel something different.Ga: Níl an tsíocháin ag teacht ón taobh amuigh; tagann sé ón taobh istigh.En: Peace doesn't come from the outside; it comes from within.Ga: Bhí sé tabhachtach glacadh le rudaí mar atá siad, fiú má tá siad headquartered le rud éigin chomh heaglach le gabhar.En: It was important to accept things as they are, even if they are accompanied by something as startling as a goat.Ga: Le sin, shocraigh Niamh síos arís, agus, gan bac a chur uirthi, shuigh an gabhar ag a taobh, a shúile ar leithne.En: With that, Niamh settled down again, and, undisturbed, the goat sat by her side, its eyes wide.Ga: Dhearc Niamh ar an spéir luathdhubhán os a ceann, síochánta ina chúis.En: Niamh gazed at the early evening sky above her, peaceful in its own way.Ga: Smaoinigh sí gur féidir síocháin a bheith le fáil i ngach áit—fiú má tá gabhar ag déanamh torann ag do chosa.En: She thought that peace can be found everywhere—even if a goat is making noise at your feet.
