A true superteam, often when I hear of translation projects to Irish I am doubtful about the quality but not with these guys. With expertise in both the written standard and all three major dialects, for translation or consultation for your game they are worth it.

Good post. It's worth mentioning that 'Vifax' which is recommended in the article was phased out.
It was replaced by SnasTV I believe, which is also an amazing resource.

Here's your reminder that the #Irishlanguage course on Duolingo is shite.
And here's what you should use instead: gaeilgechonamara.com/why-not-duol... (The site is safe, I've worked plenty with Davis who made it :))
