The Irish language is our inheritance. It lives underneath us in the soil, it blows through the leaves on trees and rises from the roots. Hector O hEochag?in is on a mission to help us reclaim that inheritance.   ?From beautiful and melodic words like LOINNIR and phrases like `C?N CHAOI A BHFUIL TU?' - the perfect greeting for when the postman stops by on a winter's morning; to `GAFA'- a way to say you're so busy you don't even have time to go to the toilet; `DAMANTA' - when you have an almighty headache or terrible hangover; and `SIOCTHA'- when it's so cold the grass is crunchy under your feet, rediscover the fun and magic of Irish words you can use every day.   ?`The godfather of modern Irish brings new meaning, richness and relevance to our language' Paul Galvin\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardback","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56296783315317,"sku":"9780717199860","price":21.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9780717199860.jpg?v=1762774721","url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/9780717199860","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
