In 1971, students on Inishmaan, part of Ireland's Aran Islands, studied reading and writing Gaelic, the Irish language, to preserve their heritage.
1971年,在作為愛爾蘭阿倫群島一部分的伊尼什曼島,學生們在學習用蓋爾語(愛爾蘭人的語言)閱讀和寫作,以保存他們的遺產。
English was also taught, and students there learned more of the language when they went to secondary school at age 14.
英語也是要學的,那兒的學生在14歲上初中后學習更多英文。
