an Ghaelainn, in universe ın Ġaelanz /ˈɡeːl̪ˠən̠ʲ/

Spoken in unified Ireland, parts of Canada and parts of Central and South America by 20 million people (Irta Canada's official languages are English and Irish)

Essentially the same as our timeline's Munster and Connemara Irish; lots of opportunities to re-etymologize

Standard Irish should be "Munster Irish with a Connemara accent"

In Crackfic Irta: A "niqqud" system to clarify the pronunciation of Old Irish words, developed by the indigenous Crackfic Irtan Irish religion. Resulting in Irta modern orthography being as diacritic-ful as our Vietnamese or Tiberian Hebrew. Imported by Tigolists back into Irta

Differences from our Irish

Dia dhuitse (said by some non-Catholics as a reply to Dia dhuit); Haileo (non-theistic greeting)
