There are no words in Irish for "yes" and "no".
In the present tense, there are two different ways of answering yes, as there are two different types of question structures.

First type: "An" + noun

An Meiriceánach tú?
/On Mer-ih-cawn-okh too?/
Are you an American?

Is Meiriceánach mé.
/Iss Mer-ih-cawn-okh may/
I'm an American.

Is ea
Commonly pronounced /Shah/
(It's that)

Second type: "An" + verb.

An bhfuil tú ann?
/On wil too awn/
Are you there?

An bhfuil tú?
/On wil too?/
Are you?

Tá mé
/Taw may/
I am

"Bhfuil" and "tá" are forms of the root verb is "bí" /bee/ (to be).

THE SHORT ANSWER: You answer yes by using the positive form of the verb used to ask the question.
