Irish is also not a completely dead language, it is not like Latin. There are areas in the country which are predominately Irish speaking and RTE has many television programmes in Irish. All signs have both the Irish and the English versions of names. Learning Irish is needed to pass secondary school. Irish is also a main part of slang: Póg mo thóin=Kiss my butt.
