There are various Celtic languages: Breton (Brittany), Welsh, Irish, Scottish Gaelic, Cornish, Manx (Isle of Man). They derived from Indo-European via Proto-Celtic, which once spread across much of Europe (cf Gallic, in Gaul) but was gradually pushed to the western extremities, fragmenting into the various forms indicated above.


Is Anglo Irish a non standard dialect of English?

Of course not. I'm an Irish English teacher in Korea. Irish English or Hiberno English is pretty much the same as British English with the exception of some minor pronunciation differences akin to the differences between British and New Zealand or Australian English.


How much do the Celt and German languages have in common?

Pretty much nothing. The only time that the two people were really related in any manner was when the Anglo-Saxons (The Angles, the Jutes, and the Saxons) took over what we now call England which at the time belonged to The Celts and the Druids(Irish, and Scottish). If you want to learn more read about them in a history book on Wikipedia. History is a good thing to know. :)


What is the difference between Russians and Ukrainians?

Linguistically? Same as between say Spaniards and Portuguese. Between Scottish and Irish. Or Germans and Dutch. Characterwise: Russians are soulful romantic people. They are also emotional, philosophic and and kind of poetic/melancholy. Communal culture. Generous. Open and friendly. Ukrainians are practical, not soulful, and capitalistic. More reserved, not much into poetry. The culture is individualistic. Not so generous. Minding their own business. Not wasting time on philosophizing/intellectualizing.

What is the Scottish word for English?

It is the same as the English word 'the' most of the time - but in some local dialects such as Orkney it's pronounce 'da' and sometimes spelled that way as well. But the Northern isles historically are as much Norse as English! The derivation may (speculatively) be from the Runic 'thorn' ð, which is roughly the same as 'th' ---- Then there's Scottish Gaelic, where 'the' is 'An' as in An Comunn Gàidhealach, or The Gaelic Association.
