Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

Modern Irish basics, syntax/morphology; idiom; vocabulary; reading/listening comprehension; writing simple texts, simple conversation
Et the end of the course: Students will have acquired the most important basics of Irish grammar and a stock of vocabulary, which enables them to participate in everyday, simple and short conversations; they are able, with the help of appropriate resources (dictionary, grammar), to interpret Irish texts

Assessment and permitted materials

Written exam
The use of a dictionary "Foclóir Póca" allowed (will be ordered together at the beginning of the course)

Minimum requirements and assessment criteria

No previous knowledge of Irish is necessary for this course. However, interest in languages and linguistics would help.

Examination topics

A variety of resources (books + own resources) are used in the lecture. Although a lecture, participation of students is actively promoted and welcome!

Reading list

I recommend, that every student has a dictionary e.g. Foclóir Póca, Publ. An Gúm (will be ordered together at the beginning of the course). There are alternatives in the internet (focloir.ie) but they often give the student too much information and their use is not allowed in the exam. Working with small compact dictionary is generally easier and is allowed in the exam.
Other relevant materials will be provided through the use of the online platform Moodle
