Pimsleur Irish Transcript
Frustrated at not having a book to accompany your Pimsleur Irish course CDs/tapes?
This is the first lesson in Pimsleur's Italian series.I recorded this while driving home from work. Sorry it got so dark but that happens in Autumn.I know I. Learn Italian: Complete lessons, play games and take Italian tests in over 100 Italian topics. Pimsleur Approach: A selection of games that help learn and practice Italian vocab; Quia: There are 633 activities to learn and practice Italian; Quizlet: Sets of already made flashcards are available to practice with, pronunciation included.
These transcripts of the Pimsleur Irish language course are meant for the learner who would like to have a list of vocabulary and phrases taught in this course, which provides no written materials. We have not included every phrase in this course, as phrases tend to be repeated or use a form sentence and only change or add a word or two. If you have a question about a specific phrase or word that you do not see listed here, please contact us.
The Pimsleur course is based on the Munster dialect of Irish, and if you choose to continue your studies with another Irish course, some of the vocabulary you would see would be slightly different than what you learn in this course. We have noted some of the differences in the grammar notes, but any futher explanation of some of the phrases in this course would really require further study of the Irish language. If you decide that you prefer to continue with the Munster dialect, we recommend taking courses in the Kerry, Cork or Waterford Gaeltachts, try the new online course at Gaeltalk.net, or find a copy of the circa 1960 edition of 'Teach Yourself Irish' by Myles Dillon & Donncha Ó Cróinín, which is out of print and is not the current edition of Teach Yourself Irish (don't confuse the older TYI with the modern version by Ó Sé & Shiels - the newer edition is NOT Munster Irish).
Our thanks to Antaine for his initial transcripts, to Nicole for additional vocabulary and to Lughaidh for his keen proofreading. If you see any errors or have suggestions which would make this resource more helpful, let us know.

Lesson One Conversation:
Male: Dia dhuit.
Female: Á, an dtuigeann tú Gaelainn?
Male: Ní thuigim.
Female: Tuigeann tú beagán. An Meiriceánach thú?
Male: Is ea.
Vocabulary list
Individual words learned:
Gaelainn = Irish
tuigeann = understand
is eaor'sea = Yes.
tuigim = I understand
beagán = a little
Meiriceánach = American
is = are
Phrases learned:
Dia dhuit = Hello
Tuigeann tú = You understand
Tuigeann tú Gaelainn =You understand Irish
An dtuigeann tú? = Do you understand?
An dtuigeann tú Gaelainn? = Do you understand Irish?
Ní thuigim. = I don't understand. (No.)
Tuigim Gaelainn = I understand Irish
Ní thuigim Gaelainn. = I don't understand Irish.
Tuigim beagán = I understand a little.
Tuigim beagán Gaelainne. = I understand a little Irish.
Is Meiriceánach thú. = You are American.
Grammar notes:
--The word for the Irish language indicated in this course (Gaelainn) is in the Munster dialect. In the Connemara dialect, the word Gaeilge is used. The Ulster dialect uses Gaeilg.
--The phrase for hello (Dia dhuit) literally means 'God to you.' (Dia = God; dhuit = to you)
--This course indicates that An is the word that indicates a question. In addition, verbs that begin with a 't' sound are eclipsed by a 'd' sound when preceded by the question word An. So, the 't' sound at the beginning of tuigeann is changed to a 'd' sound. We keep the t in the spelling and put a d in front of it to indicate that the 'd' sound has eclipsed the 't' sound.
--This course indicates that Ní is the word that indicates negative statement. In addition, verbs that begin with a 't' sound are lenited preceded by the negative word Ní. So, the 't' sound at the beginning of tuigeann is changed to an 'h' sound. We keep the t in the spelling and put an h after it to indicate the lenition.
--Thú is usually the 'object form' of tú. It's also used when you choose to 'front' another noun (like Meiriceánach) in a sentence using the verb 'Is', thereby placing the pronoun 'tú' in a secondary position.
-- The verb forms tá and tánn following conas, are forms used colloquially in Munster Irish, but are more correctly rendered atá and atánn when speaking precisely.
| Lesson Two
Conversation:
Female: Dia dhuit. An dtuigeann tú Gaelainn?
Male: Beagán.
Female: An Meiriceánach thú?
Male: Is ea.
Vocabulary List:
Individual words learned:
ní hea = No.
conas = How
tá or tánn = are keeping
táim = I am/I am keeping.
go maith = well.
slán = Goodbye.
mórán = much
Phrases learned:
Gabh mo leithscéal = Excuse me.
Dia 's Muire dhuit = (how to say Hello to someone who has just greeted you)
tánn tu = you are keeping
Conas tánn tú? = How are you? (lit. How are you keeping?)
Go raibh maith agat = Thank you.
Ana-mhaith. = Very well.
Táim go maith. = I am well/I am keeping well.
Ní thuigim mórán. = I don't understand much.
Tuigeann tú go maith. = You understand well.
Grammar notes:
--''Sea', 'Is ea' = 'That is' or 'That's right.' 'Sea is a contraction for 'Is ea,' which is literally 'that is.'
--The phrase to say hello to someone who has just greeted you (Dia's Muire dhuit) literally means 'God and Mary to you.'
--Conas tánn tú? can also be 'Conas taoi?' or 'Conas tá tú?' in Munster Irish; please also note that the forms Conas atánn tú, Conas ataoi and conas atá tú are the grammatically correct forms of the same expressions, but the initial unstressed vowel sound is not heard on the Pimsleur recordings. Also please note, outside of southwest Ireland, other (quite different) expressions are used to ask the same question.
--Gabh mo leithscéal can be translated somewhat literally as 'accept my excuse'.
--ana- is always used as a prefix and causes lenition of all lenitable consonants.
--Go raibh maith agat - 'May you have goodness'

Lesson Three

Male: Dia dhuit.
Female: Dia 's Muire dhuit. Conas tánn tu?
Male: Ana-mhaith, go raibh maith agat.
Female: Á, an dtuigeann tú Gaelainn?
Male: Tuigim beagán, ach ní mórán.
Female: An Meiriceánach thú?
Male: Is ea.
Female: Ach tuigeann tú Gaelainn go maith.
Vocabulary List:
Individual words learned:
ach = but
mé = I/me
Éireannach = Irish
agus = and
tusa = you
Phrases learned:
Is Meiriceánach mé. = I am American.

Dar liomsa tá Gaelainn ana-mhaith agat. = It seems to me that you speak Irish very well.
Grammar notes:
--Is = can also mean 'am'
--Gaelainne is the genitive of Gaelainn. So, when you say 'mórán Gaelainne,' it's literally 'a lot of Irish.' Some Munster speakers pronounce 'nn' like 'ng'.
--le do thoil - with your leave (used in place of 'if you please')
--dar - a defective verb which means 'it seems'. Defective verbs are usually confined to limited usage and may lack certain tenses/moods/conjugations.
--muise - an interjection meaning 'indeed' or 'that's for sure'. Generally lenited (mhuise) in Munster.

--an = the
--The words anso and ansan are often spelled and pronounced 'anseo' and 'ansin' outside of Munster. These are regional differences, and are not considered incorrect.
--Is (is ea, ní hea) is a verb used primarily for identification, classification, emphasis and to express ownership. Tá (tánn, níl, anbhfuil) is used in all other 'is/are' sentences.
