		Irish syntax is heavy with use of propositions and has tenses that do not directly correspond to English.
		Another Irish habit is the use of the word "boyo" (pronounced, "boy-oh") in place of the American slang, "man"; this is used as: "You've done it this time, boyo!" All of these things--the accent, proper phraseology, at least a smattering of Gaelic, and some period cliches--contribute greatly to your Irish impression.

		Her research has focused primarily on various aspects of the Irish language, from syntactic structure to dialect development and text analysis.
		Her most recent research interests have centered around the structural consequences of language contact in Ireland and its effects on Irish, including the patterns of assimilation of borrowed vocabulary into Irish, of code-switching between English and Irish, and of contact-induced syntactic change.
		She has also studied contact phenomena in other languages, as well as the maintenance of Irish among immigrants in North America and the language attitudes of these individuals.

		The Celtic Language family is a peculiar group.
		It was among the last groups of languages to be proven to be an Indo-European language family, and it shows some pretty unusual syntax, like verb first, which is quite uncommon among other languages.
		Mostly though, Celtic languages have an air of mystery about them, that is bound up in their art, religion and civilization.
