Kinda cool but Irish rapgroup Kneecap has apparently launched a website called Saved Our Speech where users can “adopt” Irish words, pledging to be lifelong ambassadors for them, to protect and promote the language by encouraging organic engagement, one word at a time. Dope shit!

Just adopted the word for “condom”. Stay safe out there!

Kneecap PR machine rumbles on.
Pretty cool although some of the words are wrong.
For instance they have síbín listed as sister but a síbín is a speakeasy.
Another one is saoirse cainte which is listed as freedom but it’s actually freedom of speech.
Where would we be if these three hadn’t personally discovered this long lost language?
These people are deranged.
