Treating the words amárach, inné, etc., as nouns (FGB s. indec), I think we need to use the copula here:

Ní amárach é agus ní inné é "It isn't 'tomorrow' and it isn't 'yesterday'"

Ní amárach ná inniu ná inné é "It isn't 'tomorrow' or 'today' or 'yesterday'"

But wait for confirmation or correction of that ...

An bhfuil a fhios ag aon duine an ceart ag Breandan nó agam?

Duirt mé "Nach amárach ná inniu ná inné... (it's neither tomorrow, today nor yesterday...)"

Ach anois b'fhearr liom a rá "Ní amárach ná inniu ná inné é." 8-)

? GRMA!

Lent is over in less than an hour. You can't let this one continue after that! :mrgreen:
