Irish has no equivalent for "Yes" or "No"; the verb is repeated in the answer.

"An bhfuil tú go maith?" (Are you well?), "Táim"(I am) or "Nílim" (I am not).

In Irish, as well as other Celtic languages, the way to say "yes" or "no" is to respond in this manner: "Are you here?" "I am" (yes), "I am not" (no)
