It is estimated that there are now approximately 60 fluent speakers. There is a new Manx Gaelic-medium primary school. Before the last “old-style” native speaker died in 1974, there was already a core of fluent speakers, who have supported the re-establishment of our language. Unlike Cornish, the chain was never broken. The most recent census (2001) has confirmed a trend that an increasing number of people have some knowledge of our island’s language.
