* Older history is analogous to that of our Yiddish.
* Older history is analogous to that of our Yiddish. Ăn Yidiș evolved from a Middle Irish dialect spoken in Brittany; Goidelic died out in the British Isles as in our timeline.
** צאנה וּראינה ''Ț'eno Ür'eno'' (Biblical commentary for women written in Ăn Yidiș)

* The Gaelic Haskalah or the Judeo-Gaelic Enlightenment (JG אן השכלה (גֿעל'אך) ''ăn Hăscolă (Ghełăch)'', Heb. ההשכלה הגלית ''haHaskoló haGélis'') was focused on discovering and consciously borrowing from an older Gentile Goidelic literary tradition and seeking out older Goidelic and other Celtic sources for new Ăn Yidiș words, mainly "cognatizations" or hypothetical Ăn Yidiș descendants and cognates of words in Old Irish and other Celtic languages. (Gentile Goidelic varieties were already extinct by this time.) This helped Jews become literate in the Celtic literature that was part of the Gentile literary canon. The publication of a grammar of Old Irish in Ăn Yidiș and Hebrew created a boom of Gaelic-inspired literary activity in this period. Gaelic Haskalah writers even rederived hypothetical synthetic verb forms which were long since lost in Judeo-Gaelic, to streamline their Ăn Yidiș poetry and to consciously imitate older Gaelic, though these forms never caught on in common speech. Among the best-known Ăn Yidiș works from this phase is ___ by Mănachăm mac Ățîni, a very long satirical "bardic poem" about society (both religious-Jewish and Gentile) at the time.
