If I keep the same sentence pattern it would give this in Ulster Irish:

Bain tuigbheáil ar an tsaol as an bhás.

In Ulster, in the dative singular, all words that begin with s+vowel, sn, sr, sl have a prefixed t-, it's much simpler than in the other dialects ;)

:good: Got it! (AnB was right about that. :wave: )

Thank you all :clap:

It's gonna be:

Bain tuigbheáil ar an tsaol as an bhás.

@Foghlaimeoir:
First I ment "learning from a dying person" - but now I think "learning from death" is the better intrepretation.

Therefore thanks a lot for the discussion.

Can anyone give me a hint were i can find a suitable font that looks nice for a tattoo?

Have a nice weekend! :good:

Right here! :D

Bain tuigḃeáil ar an tsaol as an ḃás.

This is Bunchló Ársa GC font.

There is a nice font program for other fonts at:
