If you mean Irish Gaelic and English, YES!
If you mean Irish English and England English... well, my only comment on that is that England English needs to stop being spoken by the English in Northern Ireland!
Get your illegal government and occupying forces out of Northern Ireland! |

Yes Irish language (Gaeilge) is a Celtic language ;) It has nothing to do with English. Two completely different languages! |

If you are English there is no way you would understand Irish, it derives from a different source.. The official language of Ireland is english as spoken so eloquently by 98% of Irish people whose grammar is generally superior to that of English people, Scottish , & Welsh, although the Welsh speak beautifully.by and large. |

Is there a difference? Yes Huge!
e.g
English- Thank you very much
Irish - Go raibh mile maith agat
English- How are you?
Irish- Conas ata tu?
English- I like cake!
Irish- Is maith liom caca milis!
And finally,
English- Bye now!
Irish- Slan anois! |

As you can see from the above answers there is a big difference...myself I am quite saddened that many Irish people cannot speak Irish...myself included...most of the few words I can say are from school such as (I don't claim to to remember to be able to spell the words) An bhuile cead agum dul go dti on leathreas which roughly translates into..please can i go to the toilet!
Oh and its all coming back now...(by the way this is not a lesson in Irish just me reminiscing) Chuigh me ag dul go dti on shiopa...channaig me eadi agus milshean...(I went to the shop and bought clothes and sweets) if anyone knows how to spell this correctly please feel free to inform me...i really wish I could remember more and listened more in school...
Sorry to all you Irish people...I have just let the side down I know but I will make up for it one day by taking Irish classes |

Tá an difrĂocht idir Gaelige agus Bearla. |

Bhuel is teanga amháin Gaeilge agus teanga eile Béarla! Tá siad an-dhiffriúl ar fad! Is teanga Ceilteach Gaeilge. Is teanga Anglo Saxon Béarla.
Ach tá cĂşpla focail BĂ©arla tábhachtach i Gaeilge agus and rud chĂ©anna le focail Gaeilge sa BhĂ©arla. Mar shampla, nuair a deirteir "is maith sin", tagann an focal Bearla "smashing"asat. Tá sĂşil agam go feiceann tĂş an difrĂocht anois.
Well, Irish is one language and English is another! They're very different! Irish is a celtic language and English is anglo saxon.
But there are a few english words that are important in Irish, and the same with Irish words in english. For example, when people say "is maith sin" (iss mah shin) (i like that), the english word smashing comes from it. I hope you now see the difference. |

They are two very different and distinct languages. For example, 'hello' in Irish is 'Dia dhuit' and you respond by saying 'Dia is Muire dhuit'. English is Germanic, whereas Irish is Celtic and more closely related to Welsh than modern English is.
Hiberno-English covers the various dialects in English spoken in Ireland which have been strongly influenced by the Irish language. |

Completly different, English originates from the German language and Irish is a Celtic lanuage which is similar to the traditional languages of Scotland Wales and the Isle of Man,

yes very different and from my experience very difficult to learn compared to french or spanish,hard to translate exactly and very easy to make a mistake..verbs usually come at the start of sentences otherwise you can make a mess of what youre trying to say,... |
