Taifeadadh dlúthdhiosca Mhúscraí mar infheistíocht dúbailte san óige
Meitheamh 13, 2013
Tá grúpa de dhéagóirí Ghaeltacht Mhúscraí ar tí leas a bhaint faoi dhó as tionscadal nuálaíoch inar dhein siad a ndlúthdhiosca féin a thaifeadadh agus a léiriú.
Ní hamháin gur tugadh deis do na ceoltóirí agus na hamhránaithe óga páirt a ghlacadh mar aíonna taifeadta, ach tugadh seans dóibh chomh maith teicnící stiúideo a fhoghlaim i dtionscnamh nuálaíoch maoinithe ag Comhpháirtíocht Forbartha Iarthar Chorcaí. Agus, i gcoinne timpeallacht reatha na ciorrúchán maoinithe, tá cuid den mhaoiniú Euro 4,000 a tugadh do thaifeadadh ‘Fuaim an Stáisiúin’ le hathinfheistiú chun leasa ógánaigh an cheantair ar feadh na blianta le teacht, leis an t-airgead ó dhíolachán na ndlúthdhioscaí á chur i dtreo áiseanna óige sa cheantar. Tháinig an smaoineamh don dlúthdhiosca ó theacht le chéile amhránaithe agus ceoltóirí óga ar bhonn seachtainiúil trí Chlub Óige an tSuláin i gCúil Aodha agus a tháinig le chéile i mbun ceoil faoin ainm ‘Ceoltóirí Óga Mhúscraí’.
Le pleananna le haghaidh áis óige i gceantar Bhaile Mhúirne curtha i leataoibh go fadtéarmach, tháinig smaoineamh an dlúthdhiosca mar thionscadal níos gearrthéarmaí ó éascaitheoir Billy Ó hÉalaithe.Mhol sé an smaoineamh do cheoltóirí óga, ina measc siúd Diarmuid De Bhulbh, a ghlac ról lárnach i dtaifeadadh agus léiriú ‘Fuaim an Stáisiúin’ agus a dhear an clúdach don dlúthdhiosca 12 traic chomh maith. “Dhein Diarmuid gach rud, ón taifeadadh agus máistriú go dtí gníomhú ina fhear léiriúcháin agus caidreamh poiblí,” a mhínigh Billy. “Bhí an smaoineamh agam agus éascaíodh é ionas go bhféadfadh daoine óga an seans a bheith acu ceol a sheinnt le chéile. Theastaigh uaim go bhfaighidís tuiscint chomh maith ar cé chomh deacair atá sé dlúthdhiosca a chur le chéile agus an ualach oibre a bhíonn i gceist leis.” Thug Tadhg Ó Céilleachair ó Sulán Studios taithí a chuid saineolais taifeadta agus léiriúcháin siúd do na déagóirí, ar dhaltaí iad iar fad de chuid Coláiste Ghobnatan i mBaile Mhic Íre agus Scoil Mhuire i mBéal Átha ’n Ghaorthaidh.
Mar thoradh na hoibre bhí ‘Fuaim an Stáisiúin’ meascán de stíleanna ceoil agus teangacha a nascann ceol traidisiúnta na hÉireann le rac-cheol agus punc-cheol, ag léiriú stíleanna ceoil na ndaoine óga a bhí páirteach sa tionscadal. “Leaganacha bunaidh iad na hamhráin ar fad agus tá siad go seoigh ar fad. Táid i nGaeilge agus i mBéarla agus i seánraí iomlán difriúil,” a dúirt Billy. Téann an ceol ar an dlúthdhiosca sa raon ó cheol an racghrúpa BatCountry (David Douw, Bobby De Bhulbh agus Arran Bradstock) agus punc-cheol (Darren agus James Faul) go stíleanna traidisiúnta (Síle Ní Shuibhne; Diarmuid agus Colm Ó Meachair; Doireann Ní Lionáird), pianódóirí (Shauna Willems; Diarmuid De Bhulbh), agus amhránaithe agus giotáraithe (Heloise O’Sullivan; Denis O’Sullivan; David Twomey; Diarmuid De Bhulbh, Róisín agus Máiréad Ní Chéilleachair agus Emer Ní Chuana; Amhlaoibh Mac Suibhne).
Bhí Diarmuid, mac an amhránaí-an chumadóra Ger Wolfe, lán de mholadh do na deiseanna a thug an taifeadadh do dhaoine óga sa cheantar. “Ó thaobh na foghlama de bhí sé fíorshuimiúil agus tá buneolas tugtha aige dom ar an bpróiseas taifeadta agus measctha trí chéile,” a dúirt sé. “Bhí sé go maith chomh maith daoine a thabhairt le chéile chun éachtaint a fháil ar an méid atá á dhéanamh ag daoine eile ar bhonn ceoil, agus ceapaim gur oibrigh sé gan dabht. “Tá meascán mór stíleanna ann agus chuaigh na ceoltóirí féin i mbun scríofa nó aistriúcháin na dtraiceanna uile, seachas i gcás an cheoil thraidisiúnta,” a dúirt sé. “An smaoineamh a bhí leis an dlúthdhiosca ná go bhfoghlaimeoimis conas dlúthdhiosca a chur le chéile agus chabhraigh Tadhg Ó Céilleachair ar bhonn gníomhach sa phróiseas ar fad. “In ionad íoc as áis óige, infheistíodh an t-airgead sa cheol, agus an smaoineamh atá ann ná go gcuirfear an t-airgead a thagann ón dlúthdhiosca i dtreo láthair cruinnithe na n-óg,” a dúirt sé chomh maith. “Is mór an buíochas atá tuilte ag Billy agus ag Tadhg Ó Céilleachair, agus Tomás Ó hAodha ag Comhpháirtíocht Forbartha Iarthar Chorcaí as maoiniú an tionscadail a eagrú, a chlúdóidh léiriú agus scaipeadh an dlúthdhiosca, mar aon le Don Ó Laoire sa Mhuileann as cead a thabhairt don ghrúpa an taifeadadh a dhéanamh ann saor in aisce, agus as an seoladh a reáchtáil ann chomh maith. Seolfar ‘Fuaim an Stáisiúin’ sa Mhuileann i mBaile Mhúirne ar an Domhnach 23ú Meitheamh le barbaiciú agus ceol beo ó aíonna an dlúthdhiosca, mar aon le ‘aoi náisiúnta’ atá cinnte le bheith i láthair ann chomh maith. Beidh an dlúthdhiosca ar díol sna siopaí áitiúla ar chostas Euro 10.

Exam body admits to further errors on Irish paper
Meitheamh 12, 2013
ANOTHER exams controversy has blown up, this time over grammatical errors on the Leaving Certificate Irish second papers.
As more mistakes on Leaving Cert maths papers came to light, the State Examinations Commission ( SEC) also had to answer queries about the Irish exams.
In a question on the Irish ordinary level paper the word ‘ bualadh’ should read have “buaileadh”, the SEC admitted.
However, it insisted that it was highly unlikely that the spelling error would cause difficulty for candidates in answering this question.
Candidates who use the word ‘ bualadh’ in their response to this question will not be penalised, the exams body said.
In higher-level Paper 2, the SEC said it was satisfied that both versions of the expression “an lá a bhfuair sé bás” and “an lá a fuair sé bás” were in regular use.
It did not accept that the version used in the paper was incorrect and was satisfied that it did not take from candidate understanding of what was required to answer that element of the question.
The SEC also gave a full breakdown of the errors on four maths papers, as pupils and teachers pinpointed a number of mistakes they had identified in the high-pressure tests.
Immediately after the exam, it emerged that the Leaving Cert higher-level Paper 2 contained an error in question 8.
However, there were also errors on three other maths papers – both at Leaving and Junior Certificate.
In the Leaving Cert ordinarylevel Maths Paper 1 for the 23 Project Maths pilot schools, there was an error in question five as pupils were asked to complete some tasks which were no longer on the syllabus for the schools involved.
The Leaving Cert foundation level maths Paper 1 had a typo error in question 10(a).
In the Irish version of the Junior Cert higher-level maths Paper 1 the phrase ‘even number’ was incorrectly translated as ‘whole number’ in question 3(b).
Exam bosses admitted it may have caused “some distress and confusion” for the pupils, and apologised for the error and said account would be taken in the marking scheme.
However, the SEC rejected assertions from the Irish Maths Teachers Association that some other material featured on exam papers was not part of the exam syllabus.
Catherine Lewis, a council member of the association, pointed out it had been calling for a clearer and more detailed layout of what is on the Project Maths syllabus.
The commission said it had procedures in place to try to catch errors, but it was an “unfortunate fact” that errors can occur on exam papers “from time to time”.
It contracts workers with experience in the various subjects to draft, set, proof, translate and sign off on the various stages of creating the exam papers.
In total, there were 88 maths papers drawn up for both the Junior and Leaving Cert exams – including a set of 44 contingency papers. The amount produced was double the normal amount due to the roll-out of the new Project Maths.

Twitter as Gaeilge
Meitheamh 12, 2013
A chara,
– Peter McGuire (“G’tweet? G’wan ourra that, say students”, June 6th) will be glad to know that members of the Irish language community have been arguing about a good Irish version of “tweet” for several years now.
The official recommendation is “tvuít”, which is in line with the Irish phonological system, but most of us have gone with the ungaelicised “tweet” (“Tá Peadar ag tweetáil arís”). A creative rearguard insist on “giolcach”, however, since that’s what a bird actually does!
This will all come as news to the Department of Education, which assumes we don’t exist and simply makes up words to suit its presentation of Irish as an unauthentic and artificial second language. Its presentation is, alas, grist to the mill of uninformed journalists, who tell us without evidence that “Irish has always struggled to fit in with the popular kids” and who apparently see the language as little more than Peig and a few seanfhocail.
In fact, Irish is spoken vigorously across the country and around the world. We have our own cool kids, thank you very much, and don’t feel the remotest need to “fit in” with speakers of other languages.

Gaelscoil Cheatharlach ag Féile Peile Gael Linn
Meitheamh 11, 2013
Tionóladh Féile Peile Gael Linn do bhunscoileanna Gaeltachta agus Gaelscoileanna Chúige Laighean i nGaeltacht Ráth Chairn le déanaí.
Ghlac foireann Ghaelscoil Cheatharlach go fonnmhar leis an gcuireadh chun a bheith páirteach agus thaisteal siad chuig Gaeltacht ghlas na Mí.
Bhí suas le 150 scoláire, mar aon lena gcuid múinteoirí ó Ghaelscoil Phort Laoise, Gaelscoil Mhuileann gCearr, Gaelscoil Cheatharlach, Gaelscoil na hUaimhe, Gaelscoil Chill Choca, Gaelscoil Chill Dara, Scoil Santain, Tamhlacht agus Scoil Náisiúnta Ráth Chairn, páirteach san ócáid ráthúil.
Cuireadh tús leis an scléip nuair a tháinig na foirne le chéile i Ráth Chairn tráthnóna Dé Céadaoin, 29 Bealtaine. Ocht bhfoireann san iomlán a bhí i láthair, agus roinneadh i ndá ghrúpa iad. Bhí dhá chluiche le himirt ag gach foireann an tráthnóna sin. Bhí na foirne meascaithe, le naonúr imreoirí an taobh, agus de réir na rialacha, bhí sé éigeantach go mbeadh ar a laghad ceathrar cailíní ar an bpáirc ag gach foireann i rith an ama. Nuair a bhí na cluichí thart agus an dinnéar ite, ghlac na daltaí páirt sa quiz boird, ceolchoirm agus céilí a cuireadh ar siúl dóibh san Ionad Pobail. Socraíodh lóistín oíche dóibh le muintir na háite. Bhí an tríú cluiche le himirt ag na foirne uilig maidin lá arna mhárach. D’imir daltaí Cheatharlach go hiontach agus bhuadar a dtrí chluiche chun cáiliú don leathchraobh i gcoinne Ghaelscoil Chill Dara. Bua iontach eile acu agus bhíodar sa chraobh! An-chluiche go deo a bhí sa chraobh idir Ghaelscoil an Mhuilinn, An Muileann gCearr agus Gaelscoil Eoghan Uí Thuairisc, Ceatharlach, ach is ag An Muileann gCearr a bhí an bua ar deireadh, le scór 1-9 go 1-5.
Ba é Tadhg Ó Ceallaigh a bhí mar chaptaen ar fhoireann Cheatharlach. Bhí díomá orthu nár éirigh leo an corn a thabhairt abhaile leo ach bhíodar breá sásta go ndearnadar a ndícheall. Agus saoire álainn sa Ghaeltacht acu lena chois. Maith sibh a bhuachaillí agus a chailíní agus míle buíochas le Gael Linn.

Happy Irish students are delighted at range of essays
Meitheamh 11, 2013
The essay titles were maybe a bit too easy, more like Junior Cert.
An “easy” Irish higher paper divided teachers’ opinions yesterday, but students were delighted with a range of accessible essay topics.
“I was delighted to see them happy coming out of higher Irish,” said Ruth Morrissey of St Michael’s Community College in Kilmihil, Co Clare.
“The students had loads of choice, and would have been well prepared for topics on sport, politics and tourism. We are trying to encourage more students to take Irish at this level and today’s paper was very positive in that regard.”
Too easy
Robbie Cronin of Marian College in Ballsbridge, Dublin, expressed concern that students looking for higher grades may have found the paper too easy. “The essay titles were maybe a bit too easy, more like Junior Cert questions. Students who want an A or B are looking for more of a challenge.”
Movies, holidays and free houses were “dream essay topics” for the 23,000 who sat the ordinary level Irish exam yesterday. More than half of all students taking Irish sit the subject at this level, with a further 3,329 taking the subject at foundation level.
The first part of yesterday’s exam was a listening comprehension that constitutes 10 per cent of the overall grade for Irish. Some ordinary level students complained that the audio was “too fast”.
“Both ordinary and higher level students listen to the same audio, although they are asked different questions,” said Mr Cronin. “Speed is often an issue for the ordinary level students and it’s something that should be looked at. It only counts for 10 per cent but it’s the first part of the exam and it’s unsettling if they can’t follow what they hear. I could see their faces during the exam and you could tell some of them were having difficulty.”
Ms Morrissey said that her higher level students struggled with section C of the aural exam because the speaker used an Ulster dialect. Accessible Overall, however, the written component of the ordinary paper was regarded as accessible, especially the essays.
“The essays were brilliant for the level,” said Mr Cronin. “They would have loved a topic like a party in the free house – the very thing we all dread.
“The letter was a bit more difficult. Many of the students would not have known the Irish for ‘talent show’. They should have used a programme title like The Voice to give the students an indication.
“It was notable that the examiners managed to avoid mentioning modern technology like emails, texts or tweets altogether.”

Students today must struggle with the peculiarities of the modh coinníollach
Meitheamh 10, 2013
This, I guess, is the dreaded day for many Leaving Certificate students.
Today it’s Irish (Paper I) and students without a convenient exemption must struggle with the vexatious complications of the briathra neamhrialta and the peculiarities of the modh coinníollach in a tongue the vast majority have never used naturally.
Likely most candidates will find themselves deeply resenting the remaining compulsory aspects of Irish as they grope to find an appropriate saor briathair to impress the examiners. And indeed I can’t blame them, for at school I didn’t care much for “ár dteanga féin” either. To a 1970s teenager, the language seemed preposterously unfashionable and irrelevant. Then, later events changed my viewpoint.
Encountering other nationalities, speaking their native tongue with pride, I began pondering the ironies of being constantly mistaken on my travels for an Englishman abroad. So I undertook a few Irish classes, did a couple of residential Gaeltacht courses and became cuísach maith as Gaelige. But then, like the terrier that caught its own tail, the question arose, what next?
Immediately apparent was the sad fact that Irish woefully lacked everyday utility. There were unpromising encounters with those, líofa as Gaelige, who usually seemed to inhabit the upper echelons of the public service. Opening a conversation with these exalted polymaths was invariably an intimidating experience. It wasn’t that they weren’t tolerant of those less linguistically endowed: it just always seemed strange and contrived for two English-speakers to struggle with a very one-sided conversation in another tongue that only one had mastered.
Then there were the inevitable encounters with the grammatically obsessed. Once in an Irish club when I ventured that the way ahead for the Ireland lay with a “dhá teanga” policy it was pointed out to me rather sternly that this tactic offered few possibilities – a “dhá Theanga” approach might, however, have some merit.
Otherwise, the attitude of most Irish people seemed one of benign indifference tinged with some embarrassment at an inability to answer even the most basic greeting as Gaelige. Indeed, Irish conversation seemed to make sense only between fluent Gaelic speakers or as a cunning ploy used abroad for exchanging private jokes about the idiosyncrasies of other nationalities.
Yet on my hillwalking trips across the Irish Sea, I noticed how ordinary people had proudly embraced Welsh as an expression of national identity. Why were things different in Wales, I wondered? Was Irish independence the culprit? Had it somehow removed our need for the national distinctiveness that is still desired by those nations remaining within the UK and also among the Catholic community of West Belfast, where there is now a thriving Gaeltacht Quarter?
Certainly, one reason any sentimental attachment to the language by Irish people was immediately defenestrated after our independence, was the rash over-enthusiasm of successive governments. We have a long history of rejecting that which is imposed upon us; the Norman Conquest, the Protestant Reformation, the Act of Union, Guinness Light. So compulsory Irish was all wrong for our national psyche and it is only recently that the language has begun to recover from this well-intentioned but dissolute policy.
Indeed, green shoots have sprouted. Gael Scoileanna have been a huge success and increasing numbers of Gael Coláistí teach through Irish at second level. For Leaving Certificate Irish, 40 per cent of marks are awarded for oral competence while TG4 has succeeded in making the language accessible in a way that the worthy, but extravagantly dull, RTÉ Raidió na Gaeltachta never did. Salutations in Irish are now noticeably more common in daily life; and there was no fuss when the 2013 Hurling League final was broadcast with commentary as Gaelige.
Despite such positives, it is still rare to encounter functional use of Ireland’s first language. I have noticed, for example, that students leaving Gael Coláistí will almost inevitably revert to English once beyond the school gates. And so the old problem remains that while there is much goodwill towards the language, few opportunities exist to speak it.
My own pet solution involves designating the Irish section of our libraries as relaxing bilingual areas with people encouraged to come along, socialise and use whatever cúpla focal they have. Failing this, I’m afraid we must invoke the nuclear option and entirely ban the language. Given the peculiarities of our national psyche, this should ensure that within a short time we would be proudly embracing Irish as ár dteanga féin once again.
