I'm not proficient enough at Irish to say whether that's wrong or not, but it sure sounds like a direct translation.
Good edition though.

Well what else is there to say? Germans love compound nouns, so "jagdpanther" is one noun instead of "hunting panther" as it is in English. But the basic idea is that it's a "panther" that "hunts", so "pantar seilge" because "seilge" is the adjectival form of "seilg" which is the noun for a hunt(ing expedition).
The only other way I saw to say it would be "pantar fiaigh" which follows the same grammar.
I didn't try to do "panzerkampfwagen" because the dictionaries all list "armúr" as the word for armour, and that sounds like béarlachas. I'm sure there has to be some word before the n*rm*ns for armour even if it were the case that "armúr" came from the medieval period and isn't modern béarlachas. After all, the v*k*ngs introduced chainmail, and the Irish used it to some extent even if it wasn't a common thing.
And there's no word for "tank" or "vehicle" that isn't béarlachas mealy-mouthed variants of "tank" or "vehicle".
IMO what Irish really needs is for scholars to go through the Old Irish and Middle Irish texts and look for words that don't exist in the "modern Irish" dictionaries.
One of the biggest strengths of *nglish as a language is that thanks to all its muttedness it has many redunant words that originate from descriptions of the same thing or concept, but which acquired specificity and nuance through literary use. Irish still lacks recorded etymologically sound words for many modern and even early-modern inventions and concepts, and the way the powers that be are (not) developing the language, it isn't gaining any ways to say these things without just shoving marbles in your mouth and saying the English word.

Perhaps /éire/ has run its course. Perhaps there is truly nothing left to talk about.
Nathaniel Perry
Or maybe it's that there's no one here.
It's tough to know. Most other generals rely on shitposts into the ether getting a response, not some deep conversation that needs to occur spontaneously in order to have a thread.
Blake Roberts
There's plenty to talk about. It's just that nobody wants to put the effort into discussing it anymore.
Evan Morris
>Most other generals rely on shitposts into the ether getting a response
But that's /brit/-tier.

Well the resident meta-poster likes to whinge that whatever people do isn't making a perfect thread, whatever that is, so it's no wonder people wouldn't invest their time in a thread if that's going to be the response.
It's naturally going to be a slow-ish thread so long as most people don't feel they'll get a good or quick response, which means a vicious circle will occur if quantity is kept too low.
Luke Hughes
Why is she so perfect lads?
James Morales
No Tone today, instead have a passage from the Irish-authored "A History of Western Europe". I can't find a publishing date but from looking through it I can guess it to be anywhere between 1928 to the early/mid-30's.
>ITALY. - The menace of Bolshevism is dreaded throughout Europe; and to counter it the remarkable movement called "Fascism" has come into being in Italy. Its leading spirit is Benito Mussolini, probably the strongest and most influential man in modern Europe. Whatever may be thought of him and his semi-despotic methods, there can be no question of his single-hearted patriotism, and of his success in securing Italy the respect of the whole world.
It's refreshing to read about the 1930's with no mention of a certain Europe-destroying Assburger.

Even at the height of the general a year or two ago he was fond of complaining about the meta-direction of threads.
That's not to say everyone who acknowledges that the threads are slow and lack topics which generate discussion is one person.

Meta discussion is the single most popular topic on /éire/.

Anyone have a mechanical keyboard? Good?
Nathaniel Jones
I don't see what the difference is. Is that one that clicks a lot? I have one with big keys and I prefer it to the soft keys like on my laptop.
Jacob White
It's the one with mechanical switches instead of rubber domes.
Oliver Ward
How would you tell the difference?
Alexander Johnson
The feel from pressing the key. You likely haven't used one, they tend to be more expensive and not something you would pickup in your local store.

I thought this general was made up of people who were above mocking the disabled because they were spoiled brats who resent being made to do even the most token of work.

It's mostly a simple recount of everything from the Greeks to the aftermath of WWI with some special focus given to Ireland. There's not a whole lot of things you wouldn't know if you're a bit of a history enthusiast and some information is outdated but there are interesting passages like that that show the perspective of the living at the time it was written.
There's a much more, as the kids say "based" passage that I'll share tomorrow.
Cooper Cox
I like your posting, bookposting is good.
Twitter is a better format for getting book excerpts though.

Any of you lads ever been to a psychiatrist? Are they any good? I've always assumed they'd only be good at helping fake-"""depressed""" normalfag chads but I've been thinking it might be worth going to one.
