Thread Name: Gaelic help for the wannabe
Subject: RE: Gaelic help for the wannabe
The day tried hard, but I think I got the better of it. Thanks for asking and thanks for posting. I know I asked a thesis level question, but I'm looking for an off-the-cuff primer level answer. If someone points and says "Go that-a-way" I'll be happy... I'm easy..(and gullible...)

I've found mainly Irish Gaelic that I'm interested in puzzling out, but am having a bit of trouble with finding good sites and the like. I've found at least a couple in the past that seemed knowledgeable enough, but then quickly fell to giving conflicting info.

Starting from ground zero, I don't know enough to tell which is correct, or even if I'm reading it wrong and they don't disagree at all. If anyone has a site that they can vouch for, or *gasp! the ananchronism! * a paper and ink book to recommend, or even just wants to throw a few phrases out...

I'd appreciate it Jeff
