Ireland has two official languages: English and Irish. While English is the more commonly spoken language, it is important to understand and be able to speak at least some Irish too. Alternatively, you can hire these Irish translators to help you communicate with Irish speakers.

Irish is a Celtic language, meaning it is related to the other languages spoken in parts of Scotland, Wales and Brittany. It has been spoken in Ireland since at least the 5th century AD. Irish (or Gaeilge) belongs to the Goidelic branch of Celtic languages, which also includes Scottish Gaelic and Manx.

When speaking Irish, pronunciation is key. There are some tricky consonants that can be difficult for English speakers to get used to. The letter “mh” is pronounced like a “v,” while the letter “bh” is pronounced like a “w.” Similarly, the letter “dh” is pronounced like a “y,” and the letter “gh” makes an ‘j’ sound.
