Okay, this is probably so off any topic, but are there any members that speak Gaelic? I have some songs I want to do, but Spanish is my second language, (and not very good at that, Spanglish being the first) and I cannot figure out the pronounciation. Any help is appreciated.

OK, I know this was posted ages ago, and so might not still be relevant, but I was idly browsing interesting-looking topics on here and found this. I speak a tweeny bit of Scots, Irish and Manx Gaelics, but I do have quite a lot of literature on the subject, textbooks and dictionaries. So I might be able to help, if you are still needing help?

Oh, yeah. What I need is pronunciation. Translation would be nice, but I cannot figure out some of the words. I have even tried official Irish websites, but no luck. If you can and do not mind, I would appreciate it. Just let me know. I can send you the Gaelic part of the songs. I really think there are only a couple or three. It would just enhance the song if I could sing the Gaelic better than I am managing right now.
Thanks.

No problems. Like I said, I’m not fluent or anything, but I do have quite a lot of books and stuff around and a few cassette tapes somewhere I think. I’ll do what I can to help.
