Introduction

This blog is mostly just a place I'm posting any notes I make while studying Rathlin Irish. My main reference is "The Irish Language on Rathlin Island", available at  archive.org . For a blog with more detailed discussion on Rathlin Irish, head to the Rathlin and Glens Irish blog . Obligatory disclaimer: I'm just a hobbyist, I've no academic background in any linguistics background and I am not a fluent irish speaker. I would say the current world expert on Rathlin Irish would be Ciaran Dunbar (Ciarán Ó Duibhín), who has published multiple books on East Ulster Gaelic and has collated research notes on his website .
