NeoWin.

This popped up in my news reader whatsit just now. Quirky, as far as news goes, but actually quite heartening I think.

Gaelic has always been too close to the pronounciation of "Gay lick" for my liking :(

Anyway is it possible to have an Essex version for all us 'true English' speakers? with "F's" replacing "TH's" and missing out any solitary "T's" in words :)

My mates Irish dad pronounces it Gaylick, as does his Irish mother, and my Irish nextdoor neighbour. (Fair size Irish populous round here, and I used to drink the the Irish social club as it was more friendly)
