Arieh Smith, a New York native polyglot and YouTuber who also goes by Xioma, surprised some locals in Dublin when he tried chatting to them in the Irish language, which he had only been learning for a few weeks. Smith, who has mastered several foreign languages, recently shared his Irish language encounters in Dublin across three videos on his TikTok page. In his first video in Ireland, Smith tries his Irish with a friendly fruit vendor in Dublin.  When he asks, in Irish, how much the bananas are, the vendor is pleasantly taken aback and shares her surprise with a bystander.
