I’m sure the Irish call it football when they speak English, but what about in Irish? If Google translate to Irish is trustable,
English to Irish Football = Peil
But also Soccer = Sacar
So maybe there’s two accepted variants. But where does Pail come from anyway? Let’s translate it back to English:
Peil = Very big potato
So most of the world plays football, some strange corners of it play soccer, and the Irish play very big potato.
I’d love if a native speaker could confirm this. #Irish #Gaeilge #football @gaeilge@a.gup.pe @football@a.gup.pe
I think this makes a lot of sense. We don’t want the instance hosting, say, football communities to be defederated anywhere on account of its users behaving poorly. In general there’s just no reasons to have the users in the same place as the community.
