QUIZ: Can you beat the clock and name every county in Ireland from its Irish name?

Conor Heneghan

every county Ireland

How well were you listening in school?

If you were paying attention, then you should have a good grasp of the Irish names for every one of the 32 counties in Ireland. If you weren’t… well, you probably still have a fair idea.

Don’t get us wrong, considering that the Irish names of counties sound almost exactly like their English equivalents in the vast majority of cases, this isn’t a particularly difficult quiz.

There are, however, one or two tricky ones in there and they’re deliberately set in random order to make it slightly less easy than it undoubtedly already is.

Plus, you can’t move onto the next county until you’ve given the correct answer to the previous one. And there’s a ticking clock to contend with too.

Once you start the clock, you have two minutes. Go!
