But if someone said "I'm from Ireland", you should assume they speak English as their main language. Even if they say "I speak Irish", there's a high chance they're not fully fluent, it's an identity thing for many Irish people.

The text EN is unique for English and removes all for it. Put a flag next to the text if you like.
