  Comments: Beginning Irish 1 & 2. This class is suitable for absolute beginners, as well as for those who have some knowledge of the language upon which they'd like to expand. We explore basic conversational topics, grammar, vocabulary and pronunciation within the context of conversation, song, and the occasional rousing game of fíche ceist (20 questions). Classes are held at New Brighton Middle School in Capitola, as a program of the Capitola Recreation Department. Ages 18 and up (younger with permission of teacher).
