Cad is fiú an Ghaeilge? LE GRACE VAUGHEY

10 November 2005

An bhfuil an teanga fos i mbarr a sláinte sa tir seo? Ní feidir a shéanadh ach gur fadhb mhór i gceist anseo. Nach cuimhin libh an t-am nuair a bhí naire an Domhan ar gach daoine maidir leis a gcuid Gaeilge, mar bhí caidreamh láidir idir an teanga féin agus neamhlitearthacht, bochtaineacht agus iompaitheacha.
