San Ghearmáin, tá an grian ag taitneamh.
(Sahn G'ær-uh-mahnn, tah'n gree-un egg totch-nyuhv)
"In Germany, the sun is shining".


Sa Mallarca, tá sé ag cur báistí (or) ag cur fearthainne.
Sah Mah-lahr-kuh, tah shay'g koor bosh-chee (or) tah shay'g koor fair-hinn-uh.)
"In Mallorca, it's raining." (Literally "putting down rain.").

'Báistí' (Bosh-chee) is the word for rain in southern Ireland and in standard Irish; however, northern Irish prefers 'fearthinne' (fair-hinn-uh) more often instead.

Gaelic is a difficult language. It has a Celtic origin (see Gauls, Galatians, Scots and Welsh) but probably has been influenced by the language of the pre-Celtic inhabitants of Ireland too. Their language is unknown but may have been Finno-Lappic. That seems to have been the dominant language group of northern Europe in the Megalithic period.
