The Irish gift for language is an important part of Ireland's culture. For a generous serving of that culture visit Sláinte! Toasts, Blessings, and Sayings. Here you'll find a detailed history of the custom of "toasting" and how the Irish have perfected it as an art form. There are extensive lists of toasts and blessings for almost any occasion. Wedding, birth, retirement, drinking and of course St. Patrick's Day toasts are listed in both English and Gaelic. And, if your favorite toast isn't listed you can share it with everyone by posting it on the Web site. The virtual toast section provides a practice area with appropriate sounds for "toasters in training".
