Answer 2

As an irish person living in ireland i know for a fact we call the langiage IRISH not gaelic. The word gaelic relates to the grouping of celtic languages, and also to the national sports of Ireland Gaelic Football and Hurling. Irish the language is spoken in particular in the west of ireland in the areas known as "The Gaeltacht". The reason more irish is spoken in the west is because during the english plantation the east coast was colonised and it became illegal to speak irish. I was forced to learn IRISH in the irish school system and i hated every moment i speak way better french than Irish but i think i can hold my own. So people PLEEEEEEEASE stop calling my native tounge Gaelic.

Answer 3

My family is from Ireland on my fathers side and Scotland on part of my mothers side. My grandfather spoke Gaelic and I loved to hear it. I picked a few phrases but it is a dying language. When England invaded Ireland they made the Irish speak English. Now Most Irish people speak English. Speaking Gaelic was outlawed right a long with many of Irelands other cultures. A secret group of Druids and other secret societies kept the language and ancient cultures alive.

Answer 7

They call it Gaelic. All I know is "Erin go Braugh", and "Sinn Fein" the stuff I hear on the news. Most Irish speak English anyway, so I haven't bothered to learn much.
