This will produce a pair of nested folders. The outer folder, Teach_Yourself_Irish, contains the pdf file, Irish.pdf, and the inner folder, Mp3, contains some mp3 files. 2/ In the same clean directory/folder, expand bMp3.zip. This will produce a folder, bMp3, which contains some mp3 files. Move All of these files into the inner folder, Mp3, and delete the empty folder. 3/ Likewise, cMp3. 4/ Likewise, dMp3. You may now choose to save the outer folder to CDROM. If you use Toast, by dropping the folder named Teach_Yourself_Irish into the Toast window for data discs, pc&mac, a disc will be prepared named as the folder. 5/ Now open the pdf file, and Bingo! If you click on the text of a vocabulary, or exercise, the appropriate audio file will load and play. Le meas, Dave. To get Dillon, and the recordings,here is what you need to do:

I have only just noticed your comment for some reason. I will add IPA for stór in time for the next upload. Thanks for noticing! Hi, Dave Smith. I have only just noticed your comment for some reason.

This appears to be either a misspelling which is accepted as normal, or a mispronunciation accepted as normal. This needs to be noted explicitly in the relevant tabulation.

In the process, I noticed some dubious IPA transliterations, which I corrected in the MLS version in half of the cases, leaving the other case in IPA to stand. I marked the cases, both modified, and standing in red. Give me an eMail address, and I will send the modified file to you as an attachment. Best regards, Dave.

Perhaps I did not make myself clear. Those who come in, and assimilate, that is, join, and become part of the culture, only strengthen the culture. It is those who enter, and try to change the culture to fit their own mores that destroy the culture, whether they be foreigners immigrating, or town folk moving into a village. It is they who are the colonialists, not the true immigrants, who unlike the colonists want to keep and join the existing culture, not destroy it with theirs.
