Yola leid

Yola is a extinct Wast Germanic leid formerly spoken in Ireland. A brainch o Middle Inglis, it evolved separately amang the Inglis (kent as the Auld Inglis) that follaed the Norman barons Strongbow an Robert Fitzstephen tae eastren Ireland in 1169.

The dialect, which in the period afore its extinction wis kent as "Yola", meanin "auld", evolved separately fae the mainstream o Inglis. Forby a result o the geographic isolation an predominately rural character o the communities whar it wis spoken, Yola seems tae hae chynged puckle doon the centuries fae whan it first arrived in Ireland, apart fae assimilatin mony Irish wards. Bi the early 19t century, it wis distinctly unalike English spoken elsewhere.

The leid continued tae be spoken in sooth County Wexford til the early tae mid-19t century whan it wis gradually replaced wi modren Hiberno-Inglis. Bi the mid 19t century, the leid wis anely spoken in remote pairts o Forth, County Wexford. It wis succumbin tae the same set o social, poleetical an economic processes what were extinguishin the Irish leid an bi the end o that century puckled remaint o this unique linguistic heritage.
