Languages in The Rosses

Once a predominantly Irish-speaking area, over recent generations the language has been taken over by English as the main language of every day use, although Irish is the first language in Gweedore. Irish is still used extensively in some areas, such as the island of Arranmore, in the Ranafast area and, to a lesser extent, around the village of Annagry. In some areas, like the hills around Dungloe, around Loughanure and in pockets of Doochary and Lettermacaward, the Irish language is still predominant among the older generation.
