👑🇮🇲 King Orry ❤ Link in bio for original art & prints (Traditionary Ballad Art). 🇮🇲👑 Reposted from @culturevannin King Orry, king of the Island. The most beautiful image we know of the great legendary figure of #manx #norse history, #KingOrry, newly created by @beth_louella_art. A 500-year-old song, the oldest piece of writing in #manx tells us that he arrived at the #Lhen & replied to the question of where he came from by pointing to the Milk Way. It has been know as the Raad Mooar Ree #Gorree in #ManxGaelic ever since. This is one of 5 illustrations of the #TraditionaryBallad created by #BethLouella for her #treisht2020 project. They are being released daily this week in the run-in to #TynwaldDay. #KingOrry #GodredCrovan #NorseKing #Viking #VikingKing #vikings #manxhistory #manxviking #isleofmanhistory - #regrann (at Isle of Man) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCGQlVYp364/?igshid=1oeb1amgn6fuv

Gob doo, black beaks. Got to love the simplicity of the language sometimes it's just say what you see.

Fliaghey (pronounced fl'yah) is rain, but also the term for wet. T'eh ceau fliaghey (tay key-ow fl'yah) = it is raining. Lit. It is casting rain. I had it as 'falling' rain, which is incorrect thank you James #fliaghey #rain #wet #weather #emshyr #meterology #learning #homeschool #language #flashcards #Manxgaelic #gaelic #manx #gaelg #ynseegaelg #learnmanx #illustrator #designer #discoverunder1k (at Isle of Man) https://www.instagram.com/p/CP2S2dyItJb/?utm_medium=tumblr

This little isopod is a grannag - in English that is a 'sea slater' like a beach wood lice. Find them under rocks, they're much larger than the garden variety and very fast! #atthebeach #isopod #seaslater #grannag #insect #seapeabug #gaelg #illustration #flashcard #language #learning #homeschool #isleofman #manxgaelic #gaelic #illustrator #discoverunder1k (at Isle of Man) https://www.instagram.com/p/COCdU5OFgVF/?utm_medium=tumblr

So the prompt for this one was 'Island' but I felt I couldn't do our island as it being called 'Ellan Vannin' this could cause some confusion. I ended up going down a bit of a rabbit hole looking at other islands around Ireland and found the Skellig islands, and now I'm looking at booking a holiday to County Kerry. This island is Sceilig Bheag (little skellig) and can be seen like this from Sceilig Mhór (big skellig) "Skellig" is derived from the Gaeilge (Irish gaelic) word sceilig, which means splinter of rock. It's like an Irish Machu Pichu (Peru) mixed with Skara Brae (Orkney) But is apparently not neolithic only 5th C. IIt's also thought to have been the home of the The Tuatha Dé Danan, so like an Irish Mount Olympus. Oh it ticks so many boxes. #island #skelligislands #homeofthegods #discoverunder1k #illustration #flashcard #language #learning #manx #homeschool #isleofman #manxgaelic #gaelic #gaelg #gaeilge (at Skellig Islands) https://www.instagram.com/p/CNhBnEmqRu7/?utm_medium=tumblr

I know technically this is not something you'd see at the beach, but sometimes you just want to draw a whale. Muc varrey (muck VAH-ruh) is pig of the sea. #sea #ocean #animal #seaanimal #seamammal #mucvarrey #seapig #atthebeach #gaelg #illustration #flashcard #language #learning #homeschool #isleofman #manxgaelic #gaelic #illustrator #discoverunder1k (at Isle of Man) https://www.instagram.com/p/CN_5qQkn2zq/?utm_medium=tumblr

Feoghyn is (peri)winkles! we get them in so many different colours here. These and Limpets (Flitters) are probably the commonest shells to be found on our beaches (on the east anyway) #shellfish #gastropod #seasnail #winkle #periwinkle #feogh #molluscs #feoghyn #atthebeach #gaelg #illustration #flashcard #language #learning #homeschool #isleofman #manxgaelic #gaelic #illustrator #discoverunder1k (at Isle of Man) https://www.instagram.com/p/CN6utbrNkJ8/?utm_medium=tumblr

Translates roughtly to 'hip thorn' the hip being the fruit of the Rose. This name seems specific to the wild dog rose (Rosa Canina) that is native to the British Isles. But back when most of our dictionaries of Manx were compiled there just as weren't many varieties of plants as we see today. #wildflower #wildrose #british #isleofman #rosacanina #rose #flower #pink #illlustration #manx #manxgaelic #gaelg #plants #botany #gardening #gardener https://www.instagram.com/p/CHz_xwdIx-H/?igshid=pmzxv53qx8fi

Evelyn loves play shopping at the moment. We dont have a bastag (BAST-ag), so she does it 'scan and shop' style, which is just her wandering around putting random stuff into a reusable shopping bag. 👍 #manxgaelic #isleofman #gaelg #languagerevival #minoritylanguage #basket #shopping #kids #kidsgames #illustration #supermarket https://www.instagram.com/p/CIDLW0EnEfp/?igshid=1r0qldexim16x
