"Do you speak Gaelic?"

I'm looking to practice my Gaelic writing/translating skills... so instead of hitting up one of the online Gaelic forums I decided to take a look at fellow greeks first... after all we can help each other learn

I don't speak Gaelic, but I have a somewhat amusing fact about it....

My friend is a LEJA major and would really like to become a cop in Ireland...but in order to do that she must learn Gaelic, because apparently Irish citizens have the right to be served/read their rights in Gaelic.

In the case of Ireland all public employees are required to learn Gaelic, as it is technically an official language.... and they prefer it to be called "Irish". The Scot's prefer their language to be called Gaelic (which is the one I'm studying right now)...
