When you start the day, you\u2019ll be able to name the <em>gall\u00fanach<\/em> (soap) and <em>ubh br\u00faite<\/em> (boiled egg). When you head to the chipper after a few pints you\u2019ll be able to order an <em>isp\u00edn buailte<\/em> (battered sausage). And when you look out your window and see the robin is building his nest again in spring, you\u2019ll be able to greet the <em>spiteog<\/em> through Irish.
