Hello, I am planning to get a tattoo and my family is from Ireland but I don't know anyone who speaks Gaelic. So I figured I would try my luck here.
The quote(s) I would like translated are (picking the one that looks most attractive to the eye):

1. True family is always there, no matter what.

2. Family means no one gets left behind or forgotten.

3. My family is my strength and weakness.

4. Without a family, man, alone in the world, trembles with the cold.

Thanks in advance for taking the time to help me!

We're going to need for you to think about how you'd like to define "family." Irish has several words that correspond somewhat to the English word "family," but they vary in actual meaning, and none correspond exactly. So, when you say "family" here, do you mean...

The people who live with you (who may or may not be related to you)?

Your spouse and kids?

Extended family (grandparents, aunts, uncles, in-laws, cousins, ancestors, descendants, etc.)?

Your ancestors?

Your entire community, including people who may not be related to you?

It will make a difference to the translations, so we need your input on this before we can proceed.

Hi Ori. I have edited your title so that people may be able to identify the thread more easily.

When you have addressed Redwolf's question, someone should be along to help. Saoirse.
