I Canti celtici e gaelici dalla A alla Z nelle Nazioni Celtiche, sono marcati con la bandiera relativa per distinguerli prima di tutto in base alla provenienza.
IL CELTICO/GAELICO
Il gaelico nasce da una lingua madre indoeuropea (celtico comune) parlata nel III millennio a.C. dalle popolazioni in Europa e in Asia che si è differenziata man mano in seguito alle migrazioni e agli stanziamenti.
I parlanti “celtico/gaelico” all’interno delle “Nazioni celtiche” sono molto pochi, seppure ancorati a forti legami con il passato e ben decisi a tramandare la tradizione alle nuove generazioni.
A-Z list of Gaelic and Celtic songs in the Celtic Nations: they are marked with the relative flag to distinguish them first of all according to their origin.
Gaelic/Celtic language
Gaelic language comes from an Indo-European mother tongue spoken in the third millennium BC. from the populations in Europe and Asia that has gradually differentiated as a result of migration and settlements.
The “Celtic/Gaelic” speakers in the “Celtic nations” are a small number, although anchored to strong ties with the past and well determined to pass on their traditions to new generations.

Così scrive Erick Falc’her-Poyroux (nella traduzione italiana di Alfredo De Pietra): “Le principali branche di questa “lingua originaria” sono il celtico; il greco; l’italico; il germanico e lo slavo. Sono da aggiungere a questo elenco l’indo-iraniano (il sanscrito – lingua estinta – l’hindi e il persiano), l’armeno, l’albanese, il baltico (prussiano antico – oggi estinto – il lituano e il lettone) e l’anatolico (ittita).
La lingua progenitrice di tutte le lingue celtiche, attuali ed estinte, è denominata “celtico comune”. In ordine di tempo la prima famiglia delle lingue celtiche era costituita dalle lingue celtiche continentali, oggi del tutto estinte: si tratta del gallico, del celto-iberico e del leponzio.
Precisa Riccardo Venturi I due rami delle lingue celtiche, il ramo gaelico (o “goidelico”: irlandese, scozzese, mannese o manx) e quello britonico (gallese, bretone, cornico, o cornovagliese), sono ben distinti storicamente e linguisticamente. Una delle loro caratteristiche fonologiche più evidenti è l’eliminazione della labiale originaria indoeuropea [p] nel ramo gaelico, per cui, ad esempio, il latino piscis “pesce”, porcus “porco”, capra “capra” si confrontano col gaelico irlandese iasg, òrc, caora. Nel ramo britonico, invece, la [p] originaria è conservata: gallese pysgod, bretone pesk “pesce” ecc.“
