Input from others needed here, I think.

I think roimh Cháisc is fine, although I was expecting a very specific preposition (i.e. one that you only see regularly in a few phrases) for at Easter.

I was taught trí (tré) thimpiste, but FGB says de thimpiste and I think I've heard de thimpist too.

FGB gives faoi Nollaig for 'at Christmas' so faoi Cháisc must be good (initially I thought it would mean 'by Easter').

I'm learning from this exercise! I had um Cháisc in mind.

I should have thought of 'um' as in 'um thráthnóna'. I would never have come up with 'faoi'...

Ni cheapaim go mbeidh cead agam 'toisc' a chur sa spás mar ní cheapaim go réamhfhocal é, ach níl a fhios agam cad eile. Ceapaim go bhfuil na réámhfhocail eile ceart. Uaireanta, bím meascaithe idir 'den' agus 'don', ach ceapaim gur chuir mé an cheann ceart sa spás.

:good:

An réamhfhocal é toisc ? N'fhéadar.
D'fhéadfaí mar a chur sa spás freisin (is cuma an focal gur a bheith ann nó gan a bheith).

Tá suil agam nach raibh mé ró-uaillmhianach le ceithre chinn ag an am céanna...
I always want to spell 'daoibh' as 'diobh'...
As I was let away with 'toisc' last time...

Chas sé ar dheis nó faoi dheis.

Smaoinigh arís ar 'tugaigí freagra ______'.
