It is the start of Seachtain na Gaeilge, which runs right up until St Patrick's Day.
While everyone is being encouraged to speak a few extra cupla focail, one TD is suggesting that we embrace Seachtain na Gaeilge three times a year, not just the once!
Mattie McGrath, independent TD for Tipperary is that TD, and he joined Ivan to tell him why he's calling for this to happen.
