I use Anki too on my computer , I find it indispensable as it allows me to test myself.

I use Forvo for sound files, I have also broken all the sound files for the Munster version of teach yourself Irish (free) and other sources in to small one word or one phrase sound files which i then use on ANKI, so every question has some audio i can practice along with, if you or anyone would be interested in getting those files just let me know. As breaking them up yourself will be incredibly time consuming .

I often do two questions, English one side and then the Irish and Audio on the other and then sometimes Irish or just the Irish audio on one side and English on the other. see if I can recognize it. obviously i put those ones on random, or it would be too easy haven just done the word

Dáithí,
I have been using Anki on and off and find it quite good. Should use it more often !! Would appreciate having access to those sound files you made.
Go Raibh maith agat

Dáithí,

No, unfortunately not. I'm not sure how I get to that position.

As soon as I can, I'll seek you out.......

Just keep posting. I can't remember what the post count is that you have to reach before you can use private messaging, but you should be approaching it soon.

Perhaps you can tell us how you happened to become interested in Irish. That'll give you an excuse to boost your post count. :winkgrin:

In the meantime, Daithí, can you post the URL here?

I will post tonight, trying to take out sound files from some of the other books like Gaschaint, which i dont want to hand out as they are recent publications and i dont think the authors would be too pleased.

Ten posts will get you there. As Redwolf said, keep chatting and you'll be there in no time!

Ok i think I cleaned it all up, The audio should all be there.
The PDF is a bit messy, but you can make your own to track what you have and have not put on to ANki. I added columns for this on my own PDF.

Will someone check and post here if it does or does not open

Dáithí,

I have managed to download the files, and already added a few to Anki, thank you.

I'm working on borrowed time, so must dash, and I'll spend time looking through it all this evening. But again, thank you so much, this is all very useful.

I have two editions of that book - the first edition and the one you have there. I think somebody said somewhere that there were still a few missprints and typos in the 1977 edition, but somewhere on the CorkIrish site they have been fully corrected. Is that right?

Unfortunately there aren't many people on Forvo doing Munster or Ulster recordings.
Conchúr and Carmanach being the best for Munster I think. But neither seem to be active lately.
