Céad míle Fáilte! Welcome to the Gift of Gab: Irish Language & Culture network. This group provides you the chance to mingle with local Irish folk and Irish folk at heart. Wonder what Irish sounds like?---Learn a phrase or two! Gain insight on the language and culture for your next trip to Ireland or simply indulge your idle curiosity. Come on down to McGinty's (our favorite watering hole) for a pint and some good craic---Irish for "fun, enjoyment, abandonment, or lighthearted mischief; often in the context of drinking or music!" D.C. is not too big of a place so you never know who you might meet.
