The first ever mobile phone with Irish language menus will be available in Ireland in the summer.
Samsung Electronics said today the Tocco phone has more than 44,000 words translated into the Irish language. Three translators, all with degrees in Irish, worked on the project, Samsung said.
Country manager of Samsung Gary Twohig said the move was “a direct reflection of the increased popularity in Irish”.
“While we won’t necessarily be launching this feature with every new phone, we will be adding it as a premium feature for key launches,” he said.
It will be available in Ireland on July 1st.
