‘As soon as I saw the word ‘Gaeilge’ for the essays, I literally wanted to cry with happiness’ – deora áthais silte faoi Bhliain na Gaeilge ag lucht na hArdteiste

Bhí ‘Bliain na Gaeilge’ á ceiliúradh i hallaí scrúdaithe ar fud an Stáit inniu agus más fíor do lucht na meán sóisialta sileadh deora áthais nuair a chonacthas aiste faoi staid na teanga in 2018 i measc na roghanna ar pháipéar 1 na hArdteiste.

Bhíothas á thuar go forleathan roimh ré go mbeadh aiste faoin nGaeilge in 2018 agus tháinig an tuar faoin tairngreacht.

If I only learn blian na gaeilge, daoine oga and slainte for tomorrow will I be okay or should I learn timpeallacht too? ? #LeavingCert

Higher Level Irish. Paper 1 Essays. Irish language (future, revival & Gaeltachts),health system (problems,strengths & solutions). You can also expect to see something on being a teenager in Ireland as it’s never been off the paper for more than 1 yr and it didn’t come up last yr.

I think a nice way to celebrate Bliain na Gaeilge is if everyone gets a H1 in Irish this year #LeavingCert

As soon as I saw the word “Gaeilge” on the Irish paper for the essays, I literally wanted to cry with happiness #LeavingCert pic.twitter.com/BaxUbEVw7Q

Properly started tearing up when I saw gaeilge sa bhliain 2018… first John Montague now this, somebody’s definitely looking over me #LeavingCert

Ní hé gach aon duine a ghlac comhairle lucht na tairngreachta áfach agus b’éigean do dhaoine áirithe fuineadh de réir na mine.

When you study the health system instead of an timpeallacht and an Gaeilge #leavingcert pic.twitter.com/w7jm7spuBo

When you didn’t learn bliain na Gaeilge despite it most likely coming up in #irishpaper1 so instead you had to ramble shite for 2 and a half pages about how music helps young people make friends #Leavingcert

Ar an mórgóir bhíothas thar a bheith sásta le páipéar Gaeilge an lae inniu, agus bhí daoine áirithe chomh sásta sin gur fhógair siad ar Twitter go raibh athrú meoin tagtha orthu faoi fhiúntas na teanga.

#leavingcert
Me yesterday: Irish is a dead language there’s no point in learning it
Me today: Is aoibhinn liom Gaeilge… Is teanga go hálainn í… Úsáidim Gaeilge gach lá sa bhaile

Dear SEC, I would like to take back all the mean names I called you after maths paper 2. All is forgiven after that beautiful Irish Paper 1, let’s try and continue that trend tomorrow, ok? #LeavingCert #SEC #LeavingCert2018 #Gaeilge

An-sásta le sin caithfidh mé a rá. Gaeilge, Athrú Aeráide agus Meáin Soisialta. An-deas. #LeavingCert

Ráineodh chomh maith go leanfaidh an díospóireacht faoin gcaighdeán teanga a éilítear i scrúdú Gaeilge na hArdteiste.

Actually hilarious how early everyone left the Irish exam, we’re all either geniuses or we’re all failing together #LeavingCert

Maidir leis an gcluastuiscint, shílfeá go bhfuil vóta amháin sa mála ag an Uachtarán sa chás go mbíonn toghchán le troid aige i mbliana.

Honoured and privileged to be addressed by our beloved president , Michael D.Higgins in the Irish oral ?? #LeavingCert
