YouTube totally mangled the subtitles on Michael D. Higgins' Paddy's Day address
YESTERDAY, ARAS AN Uachtaráin uploaded President Michael D. Higgins special St. Patrick’s Day address.
The whole thing was delivered as Gaeilge in Michael D’s trademark lilt and you can watch it below.
Now, as you may or may not be aware, YouTube offers automatic captioning on its videos.
And it seems that it had a bit of difficulty understanding what Michael D was saying, as evidenced by these unintentionally hilarious subtitles.
