Use your cúpla focal on Gmail, now in Irish
December 11, 2014

Language. It’s the foundation for communication, and an important part of cultural identity. And it’s for these reasons that we’ve made Gmail available in
71 different languages
so far—about 95 percent of the world’s internet population. We’re always working to support more languages and the cultures they represent—from
Cherokee
and
Welsh
to
Mongolian
and
Zulu
—so today we’re proud to add
Gaeilge
(Irish).
Irish, in case you didn’t know, is the national and first language of the Republic of Ireland. It’s taught to all schoolchildren, and it’s spoken daily in the
Gaeltacht
, so for many Irish people it sparks memories of a shared history—from summers on the Western coast to the story of
Peig
and the Blasket Islands.
With
Gmail as Gaeilge
we’re honored to help bring this Irish tradition online. So whether you’re a committed
Gaeilgeoir
, or you just want to experience a
cúpla focal
(a few words of Irish), you can select Irish today in your
Gmail language settings
.
