The Irish famine killed nearly one-eighth of the entire population and so was proportionally much more destructive than the vast majority of famines in modern times.

爱尔兰的饥荒夺去了近八分之一的人口，因此其破坏力比现代绝大多数饥荒要大得多。

By the 1800s, bataireacht was so popular it was taught in Irish schools, before changing attitudes towards fighting and the impact of the Great Irish Famine all but erased it by the turn of the 20th Century.

到了19世纪，bataireach 非常受欢迎，甚至在爱尔兰的学校里被教授，直到20世纪之交，人们对战斗的态度发生转变，爱尔兰大饥荒的影响几乎将其抹去。
