How can you have a spokesperson for the Gaeltacht who does speak the language of the Gaeltacht - An Ghaeilge. Good luck with the courses Frank! I've been learning Irish all my life, did a BA and an MA I Teach Irish and I still have loads to learn.

I presume you mean Frank does NOT speak Gaeilge.
ReplyDeleteYou might have found a job for yourself Emer!
Frank, is it true? We'll have to ask him...
Does it really matter if he speaks gaeilge or not as long as he does a good job.
