The Mrs is trying to learn, just because she fancies the challenge.
Could anyone here explain the difference between Tá mé and Is mé please?

The difference appears to be that "Ta" refers to something that could change. "Is" refers to something won't change.
A beautiful language. Can't remember a word of it though except "In anim an athar agus an Mick...."
