Up sean

Good work - Seán.

Absolutely love your lessons! Go raibh maith agat ❤️❤️ Love from the U.S. ❤️

Sean do you hold classes in Strabane if so where and when

You did an excellent job of explaining the material. I never understood what 'ann' meant when using DuoLingo or Rosetta Stone, you have clarified the meaning of it for me, your explanation of the grammar was much better than any previous explanation of the grammar that I have seen.

I watched the video a second time this morning, and after finishing it went back to begin watching the chart of sentences with verbal nouns forming the meaning that the suffix 'ing' gives in English. At 5:28 you said something very helpful about the sample sentence 'Tá mé ag déanamh mo dhíchill' ('I am doing my best'). You said: 'So, "déan,' and then "ag déanamh," "doing," you're really saying, 'déanamh' means "the act of doing," so you're at the act of doing.' That is an excellent explanation and makes it much easier to understand how verbal nouns work. When I first saw verbal nouns in Irish, I mistook them for verbs. Your explanation shows how they work really well. It is similar to how 'at war,' functions in the English sentence 'Germany is at war.' 'Tá mé ag déanamh mo dhíchill' translates more literally as 'I am at doing my best,' that is how 'ag déanamh' manages to function as a noun in the sentence, even though to someone not familiar with the language it might be mistaken for a verb, as I mistook it for such, initially.

I watched the whole video. I intend to watch it again. I am trying to teach myself Irish. I am confused by the concept of the verbal noun, because the words that are described as verbal nouns often seem to simply be verbs to me. I will use the verbal noun 'ag ól,' in the sentence 'Tá an cailín ag ól,' as an example. 'Ag ól,' means 'drinking,' the sentence, in full, means 'The girl is drinking,' on the surface it seems 'ag ól' is verb phrase, not a verbal noun, because it is describing an action, the girl's drinking. I know what 'ag ól,' and similar phrases such as 'ag ithe,' 'ag rith,' etc mean, but the idea of labeling them as 'verbal nouns' I find confusing.

likewise Tá mé ag foghlaim gaeilge anois and learned more in that video than weeks with books. Go raibh maith agat Seán
