The All Ireland Linguistics Olympiad (AILO) challenges secondary school students to test their minds against the world’s toughest problems in logic, language and linguistics. Students must develop their own strategies for solving complex problems in unfamiliar languages — making AILO a fabulous way to hone problem-solving and lateral-thinking skills!
All second level students from schools in Ireland, both North and South, are eligible to participate. We have Junior (under 16) and Senior (aged 16 and over) categories.
