[the unfamiliar word is one he takes a moment to sound out in his head. to try and commit it to memory in the same way he'd learned irish. sure, he may never say any of those words aloud, but even his decision not to speak won't silence the voice in his head.
it's the suggestion of the market that grabs his attention though. of all the strange and new experiences he's had here, it's the stores that he enjoys the most. that easy access to such a wide array of foods, when he knows what it's like to struggle to find enough to sustain you- it's a very welcome change to the way things are- were -back home.
so it doesn't take any thought as he starts diverting them towards the grocery store instead. sure, diarmuid may want to rest after a day spent in school. but the mute clearly has other plans.]
