Many people who are learning Irish have the same issue – they don’t have who to practice with. While we are doing efforts to improves this aspect of the Bitesize Irish Gaelic community, there may be other options you can try until then. For example, finding an Irish-speaking (or learning) community in your area.
Irish language Immersion weekends (Deireadh Seachtaine) are a great way to connect with people who are speaking or learning to speak Irish Gaelic.
In this rebroadcast of the 41st Bitesize Irish Gaelic podcast episode, you’re going to meet Aislinn Adams, originally from Ireland but who is living in Oregon, U.S. Aislinn is well-known in the Irish Language speaking community in Oregon and has taught the language in Salem, OR. If you’re going to listen to this podcast episode, in the English language, you’ll discover the connection between plant life in Oregon and Ireland, learn more about the Irish language speaking community in Oregon and what was it like to be taught the Irish language in school.
