[Public domain], via Wikimedia Commons]<\/em><\/p><\/div>The fundamental concept of a “gluaiseacht cearta sibhialta<\/strong>” transcends any one country, so it seems appropriate to recognize the American federal holiday, Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, with a brief biography of King n Irish.\u00a0 In fact, the Civil Rights Movement of 1960s America, in which King played an immensely significant role, was one of the inspirations of the Civil Rights Movement in Ireland.\u00a0 Among other connections, both had a Bloody Sunday (Selma, Alabama, 1965; Domhnach na Fola, Doire<\/strong>, 1972) as one of their most significant events.<\/p>\n

For any teachers of the Irish language reading this, you might note that this blog presents some basic facts of King’s life in Irish, in a format readily translatable by Irish learners at an advanced beginner or intermediate level.\u00a0 Given the American setting, there are many words and phrases in English, which will help the student along.\u00a0\u00a0 There are also at least a few phrases which might prove challenging even to advanced learners (“diagacht ch\u00f3rasach” mar shampla<\/strong>).\u00a0 So this blog post is basically a lesson ready to use for almost any level of Irish in a straightforward format, ideal for “round-robin” reading aloud in a classroom.\u00a0 T\u00e1 ceisteanna le pl\u00e9 ag bun an bhlag<\/strong>.\u00a0 A glossary and pronunciation guide for this blog post are planned for the next entry in the series.<\/p>\n
