Irish Blessings and Curses

February 13, 2020 @ 9:15 am - 10:15 am

Class: One can curse in Irish in devastating fashion without being crude. Yet one can also wish one well with unparalleled elegance and economy of words. “May your path be always safe.”

There are no limits to the language mastery in this literary jewel, with expressions that are sought after, and curious phrases that can delight or upset an acquaintance.

Beginning and returning students in this morning class will immerse themselves in this rich yet accessible world of quirky and idiosyncratic language use.

Instructor: Lavinia Finnerty
