“This is really cool! The UI is very intuitive and not annoying and the text it generated was interesting and the right level for me. This really is the first language tool I've seen in a while that's actually interesting and fresh.”

Irish (Gaeilge) has three main living dialects, each centred on a Gaeltacht: Munster (Kerry, Cork, Waterford) puts stress on long syllables; Connacht (Galway, Mayo) is closest to the modern standard (An Caighdeán); Ulster (Donegal) shares features with Scottish Gaelic, including stress on the first syllable. The standard accepts forms from all three. About 80,000 people use Irish daily, mainly in Gaeltacht areas.
Irish uses VSO word order, two grammatical genders, initial consonant mutations (the start of a word changes after certain triggers: bád 'boat' → an bhád 'the boat' with lenition), and inflected prepositions (with-me, with-you... are single words like liom, leat, leis). Verbal nouns are used where English uses gerunds and infinitives. LingoBear lets you see these patterns in real text.
