Well, as it happens, thats where your wrong and the confusion sets in.
The Irish, or more to the point, Celts..do have their own language....like just about most nations in the world. But my point is that when these different cultures originally converged, who decided that the translation from the symbols/characters/letters to anothers had such a variance on the sound?
EG: There is no V in Irish, but when the original Irish symbol (probably from the Ogham
Alphabet) was tanslated as a sound, why wasnt the English symbol for V used?
