When I was reading a lot of early 20thC popular Irish weekly papers (as you do) I found at least one short story where going to Gaelic League language classes was how young men made themselves attractive to the cool girls and therefore got a girlfriend. So that pushes it back to c.1908!

Visited a school in Romania and was asked about my favourite soap opera. I answered truthfully that it was Pobol y Cwm. They asked for a few episodes and I posted them a USB stick with a bunch on it. It turns out they didn't care about drama, they wanted to learn English. Sorry.

Then it occurred to me that the Irish for "from generation to generation" is "ó ghlúin go glúin" (from knee to knee), and that is, quite literally, how I know this song from 118 years ago: from being bounced on my mother's knee as she was on her mother's.
