Muddy funster 0 Posted November 13, 2009 Welsh Gaelic. Oh my god. It''s Welsh OK - not Gaelic in any form. Please don''t pretend to have the answers to something you know nothing about. Gaelic is predominantly Southern Ireland and a variant (the original I believe) is from parts of Scotland and both are still spoken. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I thought I apologised for getting it wrong about the Welsh. Then clarified that the others were legitimate Gaelics as that had been questioned. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
