Hm...it's so strange because Gaelic is an odd language. 'Tha' is used when referring to yourself but it doesn't actually mean 'I'...you get that more from the verb tenses agam/agaibh etc. So in other ways, "I" or the idea of 'myself' is...A bheil, 's, and many others. I can tell you that if someone asks you something with 'tha' in it, you can use 'tha' to indicate affirmative (a 'yes'), but it is ONLY for sentences that use that term in them. If you use any of the other words, that's how you say 'yes'...it's confusing.
Gaelic is a very old language and is unrelated to very few surviving languages, from what I understand, so its form is very confusing and strange.
