Oh I am sure that the grand tradition of the lock-in (and early opening)
is alive and well in a lot of places. However when I was recently there on 
a Sunday it was part of a SF convention in the CCD, and the previous
times we were attending a con in a hotel.

For Worldcon about 6500, and it was the same weekend as the Hurling final
in 2019.  The smaller cons were a lot smaller and were mainly Irish 
fans, with a chunk from the UK and a few from Europe.

All a lot of fun and I have seen just how much Ireland (or at least in
and around the greater Dublin area) has changed over the past decade or 
two.

Incredible change in Dublin, I attend hospital in Tallagh once a week,
the whole area is covered with office buildings intended for US tec
firms who want Ireland as their base in the EU.(english speaking, but
English is becoming second lang in the EU anyway).

Outside Dublen, the stream of life contonues as ever.

Has the EU solved the “official language” problem yet? I read somewhere
that Gaelic is the official language of Ireland ( maybe co-equal  with
English?) and with BREXIT that left no EU member whose official language
was English, so it was no longer an official language of the EU.

Gaelic is the First Language of Ireland. 

 In one lawcase yonks ago, our case was failing, and I asked our
 barrister if the Irish version of the law could be `consulted'.

 He almst paled and said, ``Dont even think of that,''

 I like English, its very common, even in India.

Still, though, I loved the sound of the language on the trains
in the recorded announcements of such things as the upcoming stop.
Even mundane phrases like "please keep your feet off the seats"
sounded lovely in that wonderful speaking voice they used.

In London:

    Mind the gap.

In Stockholm:

    Tänk på avståndet mellan vagn och plattform när du stiger av.
    (appx: Think of the distance between car and platform when you step
    off.)

Ironically, Swedish is usually pretty terse, but certainlly not in this
case.

	Hmm The Bus Eireann regular "Stand clear, luggage doors operatin'"
is less than lovely.

There is no language problem in the EU. English is and was the language
of business and IT, and that is unlikely to change.

I heard that if you want to work in an office at Nestle in Switzerland
speaking any of the four Swiss languages (German, French, Italian and
Romansh, sorted by numbers of speakers) won't help. You need to speak
English.

But if you want to have a "new official language" in the EU you might
have to look at German. German speakers account for the largest group
inside Europe. But that won't happen either. Everybody seems to be happy
with English now. And German is much harder to learn than English, if you
are from Spain, France, Italy or any other country with its own proper
language.

I don't think anybody wants to learn German or Gaelic in Europe.

	Similarly if you want a bar,hotel,restaurant ... job in central
Amsterdam then Dutch is useless but English is essential and other European
languages a bonus.

2003 I was one day in Luxembourg City. As German, coming from France (I
could had walked but took the train :-D) I went to a bar for a drink. I
think I was addresses in French so I tried. But either it was too loud or
my too bad (probably latter) they switched to English. Somehow I still
didn't manage to order a beer there which was advertised. I asked
something in English. They must have noticed my accent and switched to
German. That worked out. But how embarrassing for me. ;-}

Anyway, suppose Dutch was also on their repertoire. They were truly
quad... (what comes after trilingual?).

Switzerland is even more extreme.

The written version of Swiss German is almost identical to that
of Germany, with a few words that are different and one variant
in spelling, they do not use the ß and write ss instead.

("Trinkt Aklohol in Maßen" means "Drink alcohol in moderation".
In the Swiss variant, you have to write this as "Trinkt Alkohol
in Massen", which in standard German means "Drink lots and lots
of alcohol". Go figure.)

However, Swiss German has a "dialect continuum", which means that
the dialect varies from canton to canton, and people from different
cantons may have real trouble understanding each other.  For people
from Germany, Swiss German can be almost impossible to understand.

Most Swiss know how to speak standard German (with an accent).
I think the news is usually read using standard German, but that
is changing a little towards Swiss German now.

For people from Germany, people from other regions can be difficult to
understand, but there may be fewer regional dialects in Germany than in
England.

When I moved from the north to the south (near Stuttgart) it took me
weeks to understand people there.

I also made friends with a guy from the US Army around 2000. He first
tried to address me in German but I offered English and he was happy. I
asked him if they need to learn German when going on tour in Germany. He
said there is a mandatory crash course, but you also can take lessons for
a couple of months. Anyway, even if someone would become perfect in
German they've learned "written German" Germans speak from about the
north to the center of the country. But if you go on duty in Bavaria or
Baden-Württemberg you won't understand people there. Not even those (like
me) from northern Germany will.

I even saw a sticker once in Baden-Württemberg:

"We can [do] anything. Except [speak] Standard German."

Baden-Württemberg is center of the German car industry and sported many
other important inventions. Heck, the car and bicycle were invented
there.

Ah yes. Their citizens might even be quinclingual (or what ever comes
after "tri" and after whatever it is).

Two is already "multi", no?

May be there is no term extending "bilingual" and "trilingual" to the
forth or even more languages spoken by one person?
