It is clear that any revival of Irish as a living language will have to be taken on at the level of the individual and in the home.

I think a strong impetus for those willing to take on this burden would be take accept this task as an act of anti-governmental defiance, as well as an exclusive recognition of the Gael and Ireland as unique and worthy of preservation and future success as a distinct national and racial group. There needs to be a strong separatist vibe to go along with such a revival

I am taking my time at a relaxed pace as I am doing a bit of Spanish as well every day.

A people without a language of its own is only half a nation. A nation should guard its language more than its territories. 'Tis a surer barrier and more important frontier than fortress or river." Thomas Davis, "𝗢𝘂𝗿 𝗡𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗟𝗮𝗻𝗴𝘂𝗮𝗴𝗲" (𝟭𝟴𝟰𝟯)

I have completed Section 1.
it was easy for me but time consuming. It certainly would not be for a beginner though and more than a few words are mispronounced.

But it is very good for refreshing and even better for forcing you to correctly spell each word as it lets nothing slide.

as I continue, I am more of the opinion that a nationalist must learn the language to be effective. It is a state of mind.
