Where the Irish comes from: every Irish word and phrase was copied from Foras na Gaeilge’s dictionaries (focloir.ie and teanglann.ie), Gaelchultúr’s free sample lessons (ranganna.com) or, for place names, the official Irish forms in S.I. No. 519/2003, checked on 30 October 2026. The sources are listed on each pack’s credits page, and words we could not find in them were left out. Where the Connacht, Munster and Ulster dialects use different phrases, each one is labelled. We don’t invent English-letter sound guides: the only two in the packs are Gaelchultúr’s own, and we point you to teanglann.ie, where native speakers say words in all three dialects. Drawings, puzzles and layouts are REALLYBYTE’s own work. irish.languages.im and REALLYBYTE are independent and not affiliated with or endorsed by Foras na Gaeilge, Gaelchultúr or any government body.

Licence: personal and single-classroom use. You may print as many copies as you need for your own family or your own class, and share it with your class through a password-protected platform. Please don’t resell, re-upload or share it publicly. For school-wide use, please email info@reallybyte.com.
