WTF!? How to pronounce fadas?

FADAS are a bit like the Kardashians, they're all over the place, but not many people could tell you what they actually DO! 😁

Welcome to 'What the Focal!?' where Ciara Ní É answers your questions about the Irish language.

In this video you will find out what a fada is, and how to pronounce them.

*DISCLAIMER*
This video is a rough guide to pronouncing fadas and illustrates only one way to pronounce each vowel. It's important to note that many other pronunciations are correct and these vary depending on speaker, accent, and dialect. The sounds of the Ulster dialect in particular are not represented in this video. If you wish to consistently emulate the sound of a particular dialect, I recommend using the recordings found on www.teanglann.ie
