The word for rat and frenchmen in gaeilge are the same

For context, rats were not indigenous to Ireland, they were introduced by French ships - so they got called "French mice" (Lucha Francacha). But that's a lot of syllables, so over time people would just say Francach.

Another funny one is the word for the English language - Béarla. Originally Béarla meant babble, as in meaningless language. Such as the babble of a baby or the babble of a mad person. Then people started referring to the English language as "Sacs-Bhéarla" which literally means Saxon Babble. (My own speculation for why this is, is that all the other languages of Britain and Ireland were Celtic languages, and had some small degree of mutual intelligibility, but English would have sounded like gibberish to Irish speakers.) Over time, people stopped saying Sacs-Bhéarla and just saying Béarla.

This is probably the most inclusive post ever made on Tumblr

“Yes.”

RAW Irish Gay Music

[video description: two women playing a violin and a banjo. where ordinarily each instrument is a two-handed single-player operation, one hand working the strings on the neck of the instrument and the other plucking the strings on the banjo body or bowing the strings on the violin body, here both instruments are two-player because each woman is working the neck of one instrument and the body of another. partway through, a third woman comes up with a tin whistle, which again is ordinarily single-player, requiring both hands on the holes and mouth blowing into the mouthpiece; here, the third woman does the hands part for the whistle while one of the first two does the blowing.]
