<\/span>Gaillimh le Gaeilge was established with the aim of promoting the Irish language, particularly as an economic resource, in the Galway area.<\/p>\n

<\/span>Gaillimh le Gaeilge\u2019s work concentrates largely on increasing the visibility of the written language in the city and we have achieved this through the provision of translation services and general supports to enable the business community to develop bilingual signage, bilingual websites, letterheads, menus etc. The visibility of the language is our central focus \u2013 mainly due to the high level of impact in creating a bilingual environment, and the practicality of achieving this goal on limited resources. We have also worked to promote the use of the spoken language through its various business events including the monthly L\u00f3n Gn\u00f3 and other regular events.<\/span><\/p>\n
