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

"Daoine a hoileadh" a chloistear freisin, agus is dóigh liom gur féidir é sin a scríobh.

Daoine a hoileadh, in Ulster Irish (and maybe in other dialects as well. Munster?). In Classical Irish, there was an h- there, it has disappeared in some dialects and in the caighdeán, but some other dialects have retained it. Of course, I write it ;-)
Anyway, it's "a oileadh" in the standard. I dunno if "a d'oileadh" exists. They would have a dh'- there in Scottish Gaelic, maybe (and they would have a séimhiú on a consonant, unlike Irish. Differences from Irish grammar, again... ;-) )
