Thanks for that …

I wasn't being sarcastic!

I don't think anybody got that impression.

Does that mean you weren't but now you are?

If so, you may need to visit sarcasmoholics anonymous:

(And I'm REALLY, REALLY sorry about the Korean subtitles. )

My "specialty" is Connemara Irish, particularly Cois Fhairrge dialect, but I can also speak Ulster and Munster Irish with native-level pronunciation.

That's brilliant

JayBee speaks fluent Korean. No, I'm not being sarcastic.


From all the symbols on the subtitles it looks like there is no easy way to say "no" in Korean.

Go raibh míle maith agat, a Loin Dhuibh!

I'm slowly (but surely!) working my way through Cuid a trí and ran across a few small typos anso agus ansúd …

page 11:
The 3rd paragraph:
Dheineadar seift éigin …
An saibhreas a rugamair linn ba mhar a chéile dhúinn …

The 2nd to the last paragraph:
Cuirfidh san fhéachaint ar Fhaelán gan suim a chur ionainn.

The last paragraph:
Bhí sé ar feadh leathbhliana ag sgrios agus ag creachadh na Cúige agus gan blúire suime ag Faelán á chur sa sgéal.

page 12:
Here however we've got (or we have) an autonomous …
Normally, Le simply prefixes a h- to vowels and does nothing to consonants, but before ithe and ól it prefixes an n– (something like that, maybe)

page 13:
Ba mhar a chéile dhúinn é a chaitheamh isteach sa Life agus é a thabhairt dó súd.
It would be the same for us to throw it into the Liffey as to give it to him (or "to that one", maybe?).
[Translation in The Great Wee Falorie Man Dialect]

page 14:
Gluaisim I rise; I march (I think that it might be good to mention "I proceed")

A couple o' questions:
I'd always thought that Beirim, Bheirim, and tugaim meant (among other things) "I bring" or "I give"; now I see that they can also mean "I take", which I thought was tógaim. When do you use tugaim to mean "I take" instead of tógaim?

There's one sentence that I can't quite understand:
Pé áit 'na dtabhafhaidh sé a aghaidh, ní fiú muíntir na h-áite sin iad a chothú mara bhfuil ionta iad féin a chosaint ar an sméirle úd agus ar a shlua stracairí.
Here's my best try at a translation:
Wherever he shows his face, the people of that place aren't worth feeding if they themselves aren't able to defend that lout and his host of draggers/strugglers. Ní thuigim.

To 'bear' is to carry!
