The Goidelic languages are unique in world history in that they are the only known languages that, in their spoken form, can be properly pronounced only while gargling curdled goat's milk, and written only by hitting a keyboard with a dead fish. They are particularly difficult to learn as a second language as a result, given that the written form of Gaelic bears absolutely no resemblance to spoken Gaelic at all and was obviously invented by a drunken retard (hence the Irish). Take for example the name of the famous Irish hero CúĥÇħãeĺl☻Ɲ, which is counterintuitively pronounced "Ned". | The Goidelic languages are unique in world history in that they are the only known languages that, in their spoken form, can be properly pronounced only while gargling curdled goat's milk, and written only by hitting a keyboard with a dead fish.

Overview Of The Gaelic Language Family
The Gaelic Languages or Goidelic Languages are a group of interrelated but mutually unintelligable languages spoken in Scotland and Ireland, and are descended from the Proto-Celtic languages of the language family. The modern Goidelic languages are Irish, Scottish and Manx.
The Goidelic languages are unique in world history in that they are the only known languages that, in their spoken form, can be properly pronounced only while gargling curdled goat's milk, and written only by hitting a keyboard with a dead fish. They are particularly difficult to learn as a second language as a result, given that the written form of Gaelic bears absolutely no resemblance to spoken Gaelic at all and was obviously invented by a drunken retard (hence why the Irish use it). Take for example the name of the famous Irish hero CúĥÇħãeĺl☻Ɲ, which is counterintuitively pronounced "Ned".
