Tá ana-dhúil agam i rugbaí?

I rugbaí atá dúil mh'anama.

And various other phrases with croí, spéis etc in a similar manner.

Ana-thaithneamh a bhainim as an rugbaí.

Tá rugbaí ar an gcloich is mó ar mo phaidrín (literally: rugby is the biggest stone on my rosary)

Tá mo chroí istigh sa rugbaí.

as Gaodhluinn?. I teeny bit confused. Never heard the word....buy hey happy to learn new shit. Gaidhluinn I think is " The Irish language as a whole," . Not Irish itself as in I speak Irish, not I speak The Irish. Hate to be pedantic. By-product of being a near speaker I guess.

Gaodhluinn is the same as Gaeilge. It is the Munster dialect for (at least, the Munster dialect as it is spoken in Cork and Kerry-in Waterford it is pronounced Gaeilinn, with a slender l), albeit, in the older spelling. The modern spelling is Gaelainn~Gaoluinn~Gaeluinn~Gaolainn (again, Gaeilinn in Waterford). Just curious, what dialect are you familiar with, because if you speak a dialect other than Munster Irish than it is very well likely that you will be familiar with forms inconsistent with that of me and David (both of us who speak Munster Irish, him a speaker of Gaelainn Mhúscraí and a learner of Gaelainn Chorca Dhuibhne).

Dialect? No idea....never thought about really. Spent summers in Connemara and Dunan Or in Kerry, never had any trouble understand or speaking in either. Galway Gaeltacht slightly easier cause their accents are not as thick as Kerry. Diacects a bit of an alien concept...I probably speak Dublin ...but dont think its a dialect.

Any reply to my bearlachas " bainne thar do suile" ? Come on guys dont get yer Margalai in a ceangal...
