  Ach pish. People speak Dutch. Virtually nobody speaks Gaelic.

  Aye, the census says there’s 50,000 speakers, but it also said there are a million jedi. How many of those ‘speakers’ know more than a couple of phrases and/or use it daily? Four? Ok five.

  Put a pillow over its face and slowly suffocate Gaelic to death, it’s the humane thing to do, same wi pandas
