As much as people like to blame the English, the blame for the sorry state of Irish today is to be placed on the Irish themselves. They will not reinvent Irish pedagogy to treat Irish as a living language, and the newest generation of Irish have basically rejected Irish because they feel it was forced on them at school (using many of the same methods which the English used to force English on them). I have posted on here about my Pan-Gaelic standardization and media proliferation proposal, but Irish revivalists do not have good sense. 1 million Irish have declared that their command of the language is decent, but it is impossible to really know the real number of L2 speakers. If such numbers are to be believed, then the extinction of the Irish language should not be assumed to be a sure thing just yet.

Too many jocks. More like the fierce Celtic lady Feiichy is a fan of please.

Let us be honest, a disappearing people became truly a sort of OWD material. You have Celto Iberians and Celto Germanic plus a British queen (she started that mania in 30s just to justify opposing NS Germany) proudly Celt but reality is those people are less than 1 million in total now. We have even Celt/Welsh Laz hasdasdfghj around here.

It does makes me wonder if the Flemish northerners are genetically distinct from their French speaking Walloonians in the south.

I also wonder this. Also keep in mind many French-speakers intermarry with French people and many Dutch-speakers with Dutch people. However, everyone here also knows people with at least one Francophone parent. Also, many Walloons have Flemish ancestry and a Dutch surname.

I don't know how the Germano-Celtic linguistic border was during Caesar's time here.

More from the Celtic lady:

No, "we" because I represent the Celtic view. We're from very different cultures and origins and we were even attacked because of our difference. Whatever"Germanic" influence exists is over-estimated and is present in our lands them same way it is present in groups like African-Americans. A result of your forefathers enforcing yourself on people and theiving from them. You were only civilised once you accepted the teachings of the Celtic monks who eventually converted you.

Aye, let's use a drama(very big hint) based on the lifestyles of hard core heroin addicts as our benchmark, shall we? Lol, Scandinavia is the origin of all "alternative" godless lifestyles apparent in northern Europe. Pro-Homosexuality is because of Scandinavians and their heathen ways. Just as drug-taking, "rave" music are too and all worshipping of non-European lifestyle. Once again the Germanics bring Europe to the brink of destruction.

Who said anything about it being the English? The English are only partly Germanic (for their sins). If you don't like the term "Celtic", then replace it for Pict, Briton, Atlantid. The original inhabitants of the British Isles, PRE-Anglo-Saxon and Viking raids is what I am talking about when I say "Celtic". They were the people who civilised and converted northern and central Europe. The Germanics are all those who ran amok in Europe with their uncouth mannerisms.

such passion for own heritage a fantastic thing! And this ''stand'' agains much more powerful Germanic neighbours in a intriguing, provoking way is worthy of notice

Rhine river mostly. Compared with today Germans then expanded in parts of modern Dutch territory, a little bit in Switzerland. Its mostly Romance French people who replaced them on continental Europa. The isles İ dont know for sure.

However, South of the Rhine were said to also be Germanic tribes like the Eburones already. I believe what is not Limburg was Germanic speaking, but West and South West of it Celtic.

Celtic people aren't disappearing as long as she lives. And learning a Celtic language isn't enough for her to win her over. You have to have the Celtic passion too, for she has high standards.

Man, it's your land so you know certainly better than me. Highly likely German tribes were already north of Netherlands when Caesar started to crush Vercingetorix. But what strikes is almost all modern France + Belgium was Gallic Celt lands and today only 200k Breton remain stuck near French Atlantic coast. Its pure disappearing.

We don't claim to have Celtic ancestry because it is desirable you idiot, we do it because that's historically proven.

In siyendi's country they recently banned evolution to be taught in schools, don't try to Change his mind
