    For obvious reasons Gaelic is even less “the” language of Northern Ireland, as of course you are well aware.

    Back on topic, I’ll just repeat my point: in a country where 99% of people speak language A on a daily basis and where nobody is preventing them from talking language B (quite the opposite), it is silly histrionics to talk of “coercion”. It’s water under the bridge.

    The largest ethnic group in the USA is Germans. Do you hear Americans complain about being “coerced” to speak English? Come on.

      I’m done with you. You are obviously trying to change the narrative to suit you as you are attempting to discuss something you painfully obviously know nothing about. Good luck.
