I'm using this phone app to learn Irish. The app is base on a simple principle of practicing every day. My daughter is visiting and doing it with Spanish, a language that she never studied despite having two Spanish professors as parents. She will progress more rapidly than I.

Is there an app for learning what Hugh Kenner called "Irish facts"?
I don't know what that means.
Kenner has an entertaining review of Richard Ellmann's James Joyce biography ("The Impertinence of Being 'Definitive'", TLS, 1982, reprinted in Mazes, p. 101-117) that turns on "the Irish fact, definable as anything they tell you in Ireland, where you get told a great deal." (In particular, you get told things about James Joyce.) Somehow your title triggered the association.
