Nobel Peace Prize 2014: acceptance speech

PRE-WATCHING

Malala Yousafzai, the Pakistani schoolgirl shot by the Taliban, is being hailed as a champion of women's rights after winning the Nobel Peace Prize.
The 17-year-old is the youngest Nobel Prize winner.
Ms Yousafzai has become an internationally recognised symbol of the opposition to the Taliban's drive to deny women education after being shot in 2012 by Taliban gunmen on her way to school.
She survived after being flown to Britain for treatment.
She has since become a symbol of defiance in the fight against militants operating in Pashtun tribal areas in north-west Pakistan - a region where women are expected to keep their opinions to themselves and stay at home.

GAELIC IRISH ALPHABET Writing in the Gaelic Irish language first appeared around the time St Patrick introduced Christianity to Ireland in the 5th century. As Latin was the language of communication within the Church, most early writing was in Latin and the writers were most often priests or monks. The Gaelic written alphabet used in Irish literature is an adapted form of the Latin alphabet.
