Michael D. received the lads responsible for the Irish course on the Duolingo app at the Áras in a special get-together earlier today.
Writes Conradh na Gaeilge:
The seven contributors who created and translated the popular Irish course on Duolingo were honoured by the President of Ireland, Michael D. Higgins, at a special reception to be held at Áras an Uachtaráin on Friday November 25th. Since the Irish course was launched just over 2 years ago, over 2.3 million people have used Duolingo to learn Irish. This means that Irish is now amongst the 10 most popular languages offered by Duolingo, with the majority of new learners located in the United States.
Comhghairdeas.
Releasing today and premiering over at Nialler9, Mayo electronic producer Elaine Mai’s first single from her new E.P. comes with a spiffy new video.
Pete Murphy wites:
Enniscrone is an evocative, uplifting electronic track, recalling childhood summer holidays spent by the sea. An accompanying video shot by Paul Mahon will be released along with the track.
Since the release of her last EP in 2014, Elaine has been expanding upon her previous critically acclaimed live performances, experimenting with her live show as well as her approach to song-writing and production. Over the past two years, she has released several new remixes and co-produced the track Rocamadour with Irish producer, Daithí. She also wrote and produced the music for Finem Respice, a play which enjoyed a sold out run as part of the 2016 Tiger Dublin Fringe Festival.

The Cork Vintage Map; various vintage proprietors pictured at Elizabeth Fort, in the city
In the run-up to the holiday season, the various Leeside purveyors of vintage fashion, vinyl records and various other antiquities are banding together to create the Cork Vintage Map, creating a trail throughout the city of retro gifts and goodies.
Writes Eilís Dillon of Records and Relics:
Over the past few years Cork City has become a hot spot in Ireland for all things antique and vintage, and those in the know like to keep it quietly under their hat! However that’s all about to change with the launch of The Cork Vintage Map, a free pocket map which is available in many of Cork City’s cafes, markets, shops and tourist spots.
The Cork Vintage Map showcases the best of Corks Vintage Shopping. On the map you can discover the best of vintage and vintage inspired clothing and accessories, flea markets, vinyl shops, antiquarian books, homeware, gifts and to complete the look, vintage stylists!
Cork Vintage Map is a collaboration between 13 vintage-inspired businesses, the collaboration includes an online map and physical brochure that connect the shops and lists information and tips to finding the best vintage in Cork City centre.
