Ordinary Level Irish paper 2

Only Human

Is anyone else completely screwed for this paper? I've never seen this paper before in my life other than during or mocks and I'm only after finding out that ou have to do two of the story questions and two of the poem's. I'm thinking of just not showing up for the exams and concentrating on other subjects instead. Unless I need it for my course. I'll be able to strugle my way through gafa.

yeh im screwed big time. DO turn up though. write anything down in the stories, like go into the weather, say u went to the shops said hello to your friend, parents, blah blah. Its only worth 13 percent anyway but I`ll be trying to scrape as many marks out of it as possible.

I only got 15 per cent in this paper in the mocks and got 50 overall.

I wont do so bad for paper 1. I supose I'll show up for paper 2 but I'll more than likely be out after about half an hour. I only need a minimum of D3 in Irish or English and more than a C3 in maths. \o/ sorted! I'm not feeling so guilty now about screwing paper 2 up completely.

hum

i plan to learn some general sentences for the sceal/litir over the weekend??

anything to add anyone??! please!!! HELP!

Yeah P2 is such bull****. It really annoys me that you spend 2 ****ing years freakin and taking most of your time over ****ing stories and poems and then you find out it's only 18 ****ing percent or something, whatever it is!

No wonder nobody can speak irish anymoreeeeeeeeeee because they spend so much time making you learn by rote..it's retarded and redundant. If they taught irish the way they taught the other languages then maybe i'd be able to speak it better than I can german, which I am basically nearly orally fluent in after 6 years. Pah to that!!!

did anybody hear the oral tape from the leaing cert last year wit the lad from rialto?so funny"feach me2fast2furious.ta na charr sios an bothar"!classic

you think that's funny well when I done the Junior Cert. I done pass Irish and the tape was a joke.

one of the questions had pictures and you had to tick where the speaker went to.

one picture was of a restaurant the other of a cinema (saying harry potter and philosofers stone) and the other was some other place.
what i heard and so did everyone else Chuaigh me go dti "Harry Potter and the philosofers stone". simple huh?

course pass irish is a joke, thats cuz the whole language at the moment is a joke, it's not even an official e.u language for christs sake. They HAVE to make it piss easy because 90% of the feckin people in this country can't formulate anything past the 'cupla focail'. It's ridicoulos. *sneeze*

Oh, I'm screwed for this also. The good thing is, I know the general idea of all the poems and stories in English, so I should be able to get some marks (better than no marks) for attempting to waffle on a bit... I can throw in some idioms in there too... like... ar nós na gaoithe :rolleyes:
