RuPaul tweeted as Gaeilge and everyone went wild.Wiki Commons

Put down your foclóir - "deadlaí" and "maightí" are the only Irish words we need now, thanks to RuPaul.

The tv personality, arguably the most globally famous drag performer of all time, took to Twitter to showcase his cúpla focail. 

The tweet was in honor of his friend and sidekick Michelle Visage, who has been appearing as a judge on "Ireland's Got Talent" since last August.

Visage, also a well-known American tv fixture herself, was propelled to fame mainly thanks to her role on "RuPaul's Drag Race" and as a commentator on the US coverage of the Eurovision Song Contest.

After RuPaul shared his knowledge of the Irish language on his Twitter account, the Internet erupted with glee over his convincing use of non-words like "sashayáil" (sashaying), "maightí" (mighty), and "deadlaí" (deadly).

Mere hours later, a t-shirt inspired by his tweet was even available for purchase by clothing retailer Hairy Baby.

As of yet, it remains a mystery who the gaeilgeoir behind his tweet is. Alas, perhaps RuPaul is just handy with an online translator.
