Rose, I use a Mac, and I just hold down the key to the vowel I want to put the "fada" (diacritical marking denoting the elongated pronunciation), and it gives me a choice of markings.  Are you using a Windows machine?  Not sure how it's accomplished on Windows.

Wonder how the word Sibin got imported to South Africa. I'm sure there's a great story there.

Thanks for sharing that, Fran.  I've posted that track below the video window above to be sure everyone sees it and can listen to this lovely piece.

Good work Ryan! Nice :-)

Rose, I use Firefox, and then set it to the downloadable Gaeilge dictionary for the browser's spell-check feature. So if a word is missing a requisite accent in Irish, it give you the option to insert it. The downside, all English words are marked as misspelt too, but you can ignore those.
