Gaelic or Goidelic was introduced by the Gallaeci tribes of Gallaecia (Galicia N.W. Spain) circa 500 B.C. The Gallaeci spoke an archaic Goidelic Q-Celtic tongue known as Gallaic. The Gallaeci were Halstatt Celts that settled in Galicia circa 800 B.C. The Celtiberians spoke Celtiberian Q-Celtic, but not Goidelic. The Celtiberians were La Tene Celts that settled in N.E. Spain circa 500 B.C.
The word for one hundred is "cet" in Old Irish (Old Gaelic) and "ciot" in Gallaic.

A language created by slamming your head against the keyboard and then attempting to pronounce what you just typed.
Example: (Listen to 'Puirt Set' by Skipinnish)
Person 1: Hey, so I've decided to learn Gaelic.
Person 2: Gaelic? Isn't that synonymous with 'Tounge Fuck'?
The ancient Celtic language of Ireland, Northen Scotland, and the Isle of Man.
Irish Gaelic (Gaeilge) is spoken mainly in areas along the western coast of Ireland. Scottish Gaelic (Gàidhlig) is spoken only by 50,000 people almost exclsivly in the Highlands of Scotland and in the northwestern islands off of Scotland's coast. The Isle of Man is currently reviving Manx Gaelic (Gaelg).
Many people in the South of Scotland feel that Gaelic is being “forced” upon them. As both television and radio programs are broadcast in the South, despite the fact that Gaelic has never been spoken in these areas.
In December 2005 at a "Ask the Directors" meeting held in Glasgow, BBC Scotland was criticised for showing Gaelic language programs in this area, when there are no Gaelic speakers. (with the exception of those who have moved from the North of Scotland) A campaign has recently been launched to reduce the amount of money spent by the BBC on Gaelic programming as it is of interest to such a small amount of the Scottish population.
The BBC conceded that Gaelic programming was of little interest to the majority of Scots and reducing the programming dedicated to the language may be reduced in the future.
"Alba" is the Gaelic word for Scotland, but like all Gaelic is very rarely ever used or heard

A language descending from that spoken by the Gauls, an ancient European people who lived in France. Need I say more? France.
If you get totalled by a plant pot falling from a great height, chances are you will wake up speaking a gaelic language, because noone in their right mind would want to. In the words of Blackadder (on Welsh, a form of Gaelic), 'Never ask for directions in Wales, Baldrick, you'll be washing phlegm out of your hair for weeks!'.
I'm sure lots of Welsh/Irish/Scottish people think Gaelic is the best thing to happen to those countries since Catholicism and Potatoes.
In short, an outdated prehistoric language that is entirely inferior to English and all other Latin/Germanic languages. Also Japanese.
Frank: Ill cryy flp*raspberry* ayr *continues with words that are pronounced ENTIRELY different to how they are spelt.*
James: What's up with Frank?
Bob: Oh he got knocked out and when he woke up he had a fat lip and couldn't say anything apart from this Gaelic stuff.

Typically spoken by, old, nationalists who support SNP.
In 2002 Gaelic had a record breaking 13 speakers, but sadly today it has about 6 due to the previous speakers dying of old age. The Gaelic education system has also recently been under inspection due to kidnapping claims that Gaelic teachers have been illegally imported from the outer Hebridies
Typical Gaelic phrase, "a bheil mi thast beó?"

Sport of Legends. Gaelic Football is an amateur sport played throughout ireland, and in irish districts in parts of america and england. It is NOT a right wing terrorist organisation (LOL!) but it is a beautiful game which can give children all the right qualities in life..
1. Strength - Gaelic is a tough game, and you must be
strong at heart to play it (not neccessarily sizewise)
2. No cheating - other sports like soccer corrage children to cheat byt diving on the ground at any chance they get. This is strongly discouraged in gaelic and is seen as a weakness.
3. Not paid - Since the players are not paid, pride is what keeps every player going. Pride in there country and pride in there sport and pride in their parish.
4. Every game is PEACEFUL, there are no hooligans starting fights in the stands during a match. After every match everyone heads down the pub for pints. Unlike its british counterpart, soccer, where hooligans destroy whatever pride was left in soccer.
Gaelic, was not created in the 19th century, but can trace its origins back to the 16th century and beyond when the game was alot more crude and unorderly. Its rules were refined in the 19th century so that spectators could appreciate the game.
Players can play for either there county, or parish, and the colours they wear have been around for generations and generations and do not represent anything other than the pride and place where they live.
Many british people like to tar every irishman and woman with one brush.. in the past british forces have broken into croke park (Gaelic footballs head quarters and pitch in dublin) and killed 13 people, one 11 year old, one 12, one 13, a player , 5 women spectators, 4 male spectators.
The GAA (Gaelic Athletics Association) was set up in the latter half of the 19th century to REVIVE gaelic football and hurling because the british who had occupied ireland for the previous 700 hundred years had for long been trying to extinguish anything irish or celtic.
"Are you headin' down to croker to see the match on sunday'
"British people are jealous of Gaelic football, its sometimes funny"
