Key to the pronunciation exercise:

Níl an aimsir chomh maith agus a bhísíinné, ach táim ag dul amach chuig an siopa, péscéalé. Chonaic méan ghrian agéiríar maidin, agus bhínéalta dubha ann freisin. B'fhéidir go gcuirfidh sésneachta roimh oíche.

The weather is not as good as it was yesterday, but I am going out to the store, anyway. I saw the sun rising this morning and there were dark clouds there, too. Perhaps it will snow before night.

If your first effort at listening to speech was not very successful, don't be discouraged. All beginners in languages experience this. We will have these pronunciation exercises at intervals in future lessons, and you will become more proficient.
