A new online course to learn Manx Gaelic

Manx Gaelic is the latest online language course being launched by a team aiming to revolutionise the way we learn languages.
Glossika, a team of linguists and polyglots based in Taiwan, is dedicated to achieving fluency in a new language through a ’natural immersion self-training method’.
Adrian Cain, the Manx language development officer for Culture Vannin said: ’This is a fantastic addition to the already substantial body of on-line material available for the learner of Manx.


’It is also great that Glossika are providing the course free to learners as a way of supporting minority languages. This will be of long-term benefit to the language and culture of the island.’
The Glossika team has already analysed and launched over 60 of the most widely spoken languages from around the world and now in a joint project with Aberdeen University and Culture Vannin has made the course available in Manx.
The course, which consists of more than 3,000 sentences that increase in difficulty according to the needs of the learner, can be accessed free from Glossika at https://ai.glossika.com/language/learn-manx
