The Irish Lass in NYC is viral on Tikok because he has explained the culture and language of Ireland: “I just found this niche”

Your Irish eyes smile, but it is her mother tongue that has attracted the attention of the New Yorkers.

Vivienne Sayers O'Callaghan was born on a farm in the county of Cork, Ireland, and grew to Ridgewood, Queens in 2023, and soon began to publish videos on her site @vivienne_in_nyc.

Her lessons about Irish language and culture are as popular on St. Patrick's Day as green beer and became viral on Tikok.

One of her earliest described the differences between walking the street in Ireland compared to the Big Apple.

“In Ireland you have eye contact with the person you are [passing] And you will say hello or nod to them, ”said O'Callaghan of the Post. “And when I moved to New York, I found it extremely difficult to be able to pass someone and just look at the floor. I felt so rude. ”

Her most visited contribution-wundering female names in the Irish language, in which it explains the meaning behind Monikers such as Laoise, Muireann, Róisín and órlaith, collected 10 million views via Tikok, Instagram and Facebook.

The 23-year-old started the social media platform after noticing that the Americans were mainly in the dark over her home country.

“Everyone said: 'Oh my god, you are from Ireland. Let us talk about the famine and the potatoes, ”she said.

“And I said: 'This is not a narrative that I want to continue. I would like to tell the people of Ireland and the Irish because we are one of the most progressive and richest countries in Europe. “

When she was 4 years old, O'Callaghan was registered in a Gaeilscoil, an Irish language school. Vivienne_in_nyc/tiktok

One of her missions is to teach the Irish language called Gaeilge, which, as she learned, did not even know the people in the states.

“Everyone said:” I come from Ireland. “They were 10%, 50%, 90%Irish, and nobody was aware of the Irish language,” she said.

O'Callaghan's ingenuity – mixed with a little luck of the Irish – let her site explode, and within six months she had 150,000 followers.

“I just found this niche,” she said. “Then I arrested this amazing basis for Irish and Irish Americans worldwide, especially on the east coast of the USA.”

☘️🇮🇪 Did you know about all these Irish inventions? 😱🎼 I completed my Bachelor of Music at the Cork School of Music, the Munster Technological University in 2022, and studied classical music performance. Sit, but I bet, they didn't know that Ireland also created a popular classic music genre. We did a lot !! 💪🏼💪🏼 Who was John Field? John Field (1782-1837) was an Irish composer and pianist who is known for his contributions to classical music: The Nocturne! 🎹 A nocturne is a musical composition that is inspired by the night or is impressive. It has a canthails (singing) melody via an Arpegg accompaniment. While other composers wrote similar pieces, John Field was the first to call these pieces “Nocturnes”. Field's Nocturnes influenced many famous composers, including Frédéric Chopin, who made the genre popular (also in this video!). The nocturne remains a popular genre in classical music, known for its expressive and lyrical qualities. #Irishpride #composer #musicgenre #tiKedUcation #learnontikok #irishheritage #hiddengems #Musiclover

“His name is not Patrick at all. It was Maewyn Succat because he was a slave from Wales, ”she said from the post office, who received 1.7 million combined views on Instagram and Tiktok.

She even posted how to say F -K on Irish.

“Of course you have to make it practical,” she said with a laugh.

“And what I like to tell the people is that we don't have exactly the opportunity to say” f – k from “because the Irish language is so old, we have more curses about people – how” May the devil make a ladder out of their spine. “

O'Callaghan is touched by the messages that she receives, which is “mainly about how people are associated with their Irish identity again, which means so much,” she said. Vivienne Sayers O'Callaghan

In the city she also met her friend -who comes from Northport and a NYPD police officer is “like every Irish Long Island type,” she joked.

O'Callaghan, which was touched by the messages she receives from her loyal followers, is even recognized by fans who are not Irish.

“A man went up to me and he said, 'I come from North Carolina. I don't have any Irish heritage at all, ”she said. “But I love your content and I learn Irish.”
