Does anybody know whether RTE has simply abandoned providing Irish-language news? http://www.rte.ie/news/index.html Look for the "nuacht" link somewhere to the right of the page. This same clip has been up for ages now and none of the archives of past broadcasts work. |

Aye, cur glaoch.. Start mentioning offical language acts.. an coimisneir teanga &rl... A people without a language of its own is only half a nation.A nation should guard its language more than its territories, 'tis a surer barrier and a more important frontier than mountain or river

I just want to say that Eamon O Cuiv is shamefully bad at answering e-mails. I've e-mailed him twice and sure to truth he didn't write back, there wasn't even a canned message or anything. :( Maybe he'll be kinder if you write in about the missing nuacht. Beir bua agus beannacht |

A Ríona, céard a bhí tú ag rá leis an Aire Ó Cuív? Ní cheapaim go bhfuil sé freagrach don suíomh idirlín RTÉ. (freagrach do = responsible for) Bhí sé anseo i mí Lúnasa agus bhuail mé leis. Duine an-deas é dar liom - cairdiúil agus an-spreagúil. Níor mhiste leis mo chuid Gaeilge bhríste. (bhuail mé le = I met) (dar liom = in my opinion) (níor mhiste leis = he didn't mind) Tá fáilte roimh chuile cheartú!

Níl Éamo leat go h-olc má tá cónaí ort ina dháilcheantair (ar sé go ciniciúil!) ach ní tré rphoist a fhreagraíonn sé ach trén gnath phoist... Actually Éamo isn't too bad if you happen to live in his constituency but he diesnt reply by email but through ordinary post... :-) Nuacht Ghaeltacht na Gaillimhe agus Deisceart Mhuigheó http://anghaeltacht.net/ce

I bhfocail eile, ní féidir le cailín i bPortland vóta a thabhairt dó! Agus an ceart ar fad aige. Níl an t-am aige dá leithéid, ná an t-airgead aige chun foireann mhór a fhostú le déileáil le gearánaigh thar lear. "An seanchas gearr, an seanchas is fearr."

A Abigail a chara, I didn't write to him about RTE. I wrote to him last year about my project. As of 1997 he stated that there were such people left and so I thought he might be able to help me in some way. That is interesting that you met him. A Dhennis a chara, Ta an ceart agat. I can't give him votes or money so theoretically there is no monitary benifit in writing back to me. Maybe I'll try again anyways though because it has been quite a few months since I tried it.

Nach gcaithfidh briathair teacht i ndiaidh "sure to" |

Maidir le mo cheisteanna faoin nuacht, fuair mé freagra ó Éamon Ó Cuív: Deireann sé go bhfuil sé "taréis na ceisteannaí [....] a thógáil le RTÉ..." agus go mbeidh sé i dteangmháil arís nuair atá freagra aige ó RTÉ. Bhí áthas orm an freagra seo a fháil agus tá súil agam go mbeidh réiteach ar an scéal. Gabhaim buíochas leis agus tá mé ag rá anseo gur fheagair sé mo ríomh-phost. BRN and Riona, I just got a reply to an email I sent to minister Éamon Ó Cuív and it was polite and quick and he has already started to investigate the problem and I was very impressed. That's my experience. Is má tá tú ag léamh anseo, a Aire, míle buíochas. |

Forgive me for belaboring this, but the same news clip "as Gaeilge" is still up on RTE that was up when this thread was started. An bhfuil Gaeilge athsmaoineamh le RTE? |

Nuacht ó Chathal Goan, Príomhstiúrthóir RTÉ “Ón lá inniu ar aghaidh craolfar gach feasachán Nuachta teilifíse, idir Gaeilge agus Béarla beo ar shuíomh idirlín RTÉ.” Go raibh maith agat, a Chathail, agus is deas an bronntanas é do Lá Fhéile Pádraig. Deireann sé go bhfuil Gaeilge le fáil in áiteanna eile ar an láthair: http://www.rte.ie/about agus http://www.rte.ie/laweb ach níl mé cinnte fós cá bhfuil sí ansin. |

I wrote to eolas@ coimisineir.ie and they wrote back, not with a response I wanted but with other ideas of who to e-mail about my particular question. I also wrote to Eamon O Cuiv again, only time will tell what happens with that one but I know he would have the information that I seek. Beir bua agus beannacht |

A Ríona, is maith go bhfuil tú ag cur dua ort dul i ngleic le maorlathas; ach cad chuige go díreach a bhfuil tú? Más ceist na nuachta Gaeilge ar RTÉ, nár bhfearr duit dul chun cainte le RTÉ fhéin? Cad é mar a bhaineann an tAire Ó Cuív le scéal? |

Oh sure and I'm not asking them about RTE at all. I'm asking about my project, having come to the idea that the coimisineir might be able to help me with it. As to writing to Eamon, I tried before a year ago or so and got no reply so I decided to try again. That is all there is to it. Beir bua agus beannacht |

I've given up on O Cuiv. I thought that if I wrote my subject line in Irish he'd read it and respond, but no. Of all people in Ireland he should be the one who knows the information I seek. Oh well, he just might not get my proverbial imaginary vote next time their is an election. Beir bua agus beannacht |

I went to college, about seventeen years ago, with an Irishwoman who didn't begin learning English until she was about 4 years old. She may be of some help if I can touch bases with her, and I believe I may be able to. Can you post any further details of your research that may assist? |

Well I have a list of instances that I've found, some more credible than others but all that I think apply are on the list. I'm looking for adults, which in this situation means very old people since all younger adults have English no matter how often they speak Irish. So I don't know that your old friend could help but there is always a possibility that she could. There is a lot about this in the archives under my name and project or limited English or such headings. Go raibh maith agat Beir bua agus beannacht |

Hmmm.. i think what you'd need is to contact someone a lot more local than the Minister of all the gaeltachtaí.. Perhaps udaras na gaeltachta, one of their members perhaps.. Someone who lives in the back arse of nowhere (where you'd be most likely to find Daoine gan Ghaeilge) would know.. Gráinne Mhic Géidigh is a ledge!

"There is a lot about this in the archives under my name and project or limited English or such headings." Couldn't you simply state plainly the bare bones of your project's goals? I'm not trying to get out of searching the archives, this just simply seems easier and less prone to confusion. |

I just want to know about the last few people in Ireland with limited English (immigrants don't count of course). That is about as far as it goes at this point because I don't know who else would care about my list that I'm keeping of instances so it is just a personal interest based project. I don't mind telling you, I just thought that if you wanted to know more you might be interested in those archived threads, I wasn't trying to make you look for them for answers.
