How many topics the basic idea of \u201can f\u00e9ilire<\/strong>\u201d can generate!\u00a0 Here are the months again, once again, this time with holidays to match.\u00a0 The new hitch?\u00a0 I\u2019ve deliberately left off the first letter (or sometimes the first two letters) of the months as a memory-jogger.\u00a0 As usual, you\u2019ll find na freagra\u00ed<\/strong> below.<\/p>\n

For this practice, I\u2019ve used the \u201cM\u00ed<\/strong> +\u201d form of the months\u2019 names, since it provides a bit more challenge that way.<\/p>\n

Oh, and a caveateen \u2013 some of these holidays are major, international, well-known, etc.\u00a0 Others are not, but are documented somehow online, and at least provide a little interesting vocabulary.\u00a0 For a few of the well-known holiday names, I\u2019ve also left off the first one or two initial letters.\u00a0 C\u00e9n f\u00e1th?\u00a0 Cleachtadh!\u00a0 S\u00e9imhi\u00fa n\u00f3 gan s\u00e9imhi\u00fa!<\/strong><\/p>\n
