This week on Bitesize Pobal, we followed our Gaeilge Gach Lá rhythm with a short Cleachtadh an Lae each day.

Luan – Scríbhneoireacht
The writing prompt asked whether you like to plan your day or prefer to go with the flow: An maith leat do lá a phleanáil, nó an fearr leat dul leis an sruth?

Máirt – Foclóir agus Labhairt
Tuesday’s Cleachtadh an Lae explored the word blas, which means both ‘taste’ or ‘flavour’ and ‘accent’ in Irish, along with related words like blasta (tasty, or well-spoken) and blaslóg (tastebud).

Céadaoin – Léitheoireacht
This week’s reading piece came from nos.ie and told the story of Irish-language announcements appearing on the Bilbao Metro in the Basque Country, ahead of Leinster and Ulster’s European rugby fixtures.

Déardaoin – Éisteacht
Thursday’s listening brought a  video about a little cottage in Gaeltacht na nDéise.

Aoine – Nuacht
We wrapped up the week with a news piece about Galway GAA footballer and fluent Irish speaker Seán Fitzgerald, who is set to appear on Love Island, raising the question: An gcloisfimid Gaeilge ar an teilifís réaltachta?
