Irish language organisations in the North fear that they have been have been stroked by a new ‘partitionist’ funding model.

Tá eagrais Ghaeilge sa Tuaisceart buartha go bhfuil siad á sailleadh ag samhail nua mhaoinithe ‘críoch-dheighilteach’.

Sceitheadh roinnt de na sonraí an tseachtain seo caite, maidir le scéim nua mhaoinithe ag Foras na Gaeilge. De réir an ailt, tá sé ‘cheanneagraíocht’ le bheith ann. Beidh siad freagrach as réimsí difriúla d’obair teanga.

Tuigtear go mbeidh seacht n-eagras san iomaíocht mar ‘cheanneagraíochtaí’. Níl ceann ar bith acu lonnaithe sa Tuaisceart. Beidh na ‘ceanneagraíochtaí’ ábalta fochonarthaí a thabhairt d’eagrais eile.

Is féidir an chuid eile den scéal seo a léamh in Gaelscéal na seachtaine seo.

críoch-dheighilteach – partitionist

ceanneagraíochtaí – lead organisations

freagrach – responsible

teanga – tongue / language
