Top ten words invented in Ireland - useful for St. Patrick’s Day

I really wish Irish Central would STOP referring to the Irish language as Gaelic! Would you say to a person who speaks Spanish that its really Latin that they speak? No! They speak Spanish but the Spanish language is in the Latin family of languages. If you pick up a book called Teach Yourself Gaelic, you will learn the Scottish Gaelic language not the Irish language! They are different languages but both are members of the Gaelic family of languages. This is a mistake I hear all the time in the U.S.A. even from people in academia. Irish is the correct term for the language. Oh and by the way there is a book called Teach Yourself Irish and guess what its the Irish language that you'll learn by studying it not Scottish Gaelic.
