Cheap mé go raibh sé seo suimiúil. Tá sé faoi fhocail Béarla, ach ansin bhí mé ag smaoineamh faoin Ghaeilge.

Five English words apparently without a rhyme: bulb, orange, angel, silver, month. (from dictionary.com)
Bhí mé ag smaoineamh go mbeidh cluiche againn le focail Gaeilge, ach ansin bhí mé buartha go dtóisóidh cogadh domhanda a trí! :ninja: :ninja: (apparently the weapon of choice in WW3 will be knives and not nuclear bombs!) Mar tá blas difriúil ag gach duine, an mbeimid in ann cluiche a dhéanamh! Tá smaointe fáilte......

Let's start the war then... in Conamara we say "cluife" for "game". :LOL:

It is recommended that you always wait for three to agree on a translation.
I speak Connemara Irish, and my input will often reflect that.
I will do an mp3 file on request for short translations.

Do they have to be in the singular?

cluiche...ag ithe
cluiche...tithe
cluiche...nithe

They are all grand except that Bríd gave us the 'cluife' version. I knew it wouldn't be simple...... :mrgreen:
