Teacher gave this to us the other day, I think it's similar or nearly the same as Revise Wise !
If you want poetry - Subh Milis and Gealt, oh and An tOzón I also have another Pros handout on Marie Curie - loads of themes for this. I have a few stories as well - Party, Concert and the Best Holiday I ever had. An tÁdh le Pádraig Ó Conaire Téamaí Cairdeas - friendship An óige - Youth Bás - Death Tubaiste a tharla - Disaster that happened Dílseacht - Loyalty Ádh - Luck Saol na tuaithe/saol in aice na farraige - Life in the country/life at the seaside Baol - Danger Na Mothúcháin sa scéal Brón - Sadness Briseadh croí - Heartbreak Aiféala - Regret Imní - Worry Tuiscint - Understanding Misneach - Bravery Sample Answer i) Rinne mé staidéar ar an scéál "An tÁdh" le Pádraig Ó Conaire. Scéal faoin mbás é an scéál seo. ii) Baineann an scéal seo le buachaillí óga a chónaigh faoin tuath na blianta ó shin - Pádraig, Séamas agus Micilín. Bhídis i gconaí ag deánamh rudaí nár choir dóibh a dhéanamh agus bhain siad an-taitneamh as an saol. Saol na tuaithe agus saol in aice na farraige a bhí ann. Chuaigh beirt de na buachaillí amach ar an bhfarraige i gan fhios d'aon duine. Bhí Tom Beag ag dul go Garumna an lá sin chun muca a dhíol agus chuaigh an bheirt bhuachaillí isteach fanacht do Tom, fuair Pádraig an tráithnín fada agus bhí air fanacht. Bhí an- bhrón air faoi sin ach ag deireadh an scéil, níor tháinig an bád ar ais agus bádh an bheirt bhuachaillí. Bhí an t-ádh le Pádraig sa deireadh. Last edited by xfabgalx; 06-05-2012 at 16:19. |

 Here's a few for now though:Letter: Caithfidh mé imeacht anois, scriobh chugam go luaith, - not sure if there's an i in there or not :O :L Slán, Úna. I have to go now, write to me soon, bye, Una. Beatha agus sláinte -Life and health! Tá sé tabhachtach go mbíonn ..... , dar liomsa - It is important that.... in my opinion Cuir téacs chugam nuair a bheidh tú ar ais in Éirinn. Send me a text when you are back in Ireland. Slán go fóill - Farewell for now Bhí fonn orm i gcónaí dul go dtí an Frainc, go háirithe go dtí Páras, mar theastaigh uaim dul suas an Túr Eiffel agus tá suim mhór agam i stair na Fraince - I always wanted (or desired) to go to France, especially to Paris, because I wanted to go up the Eiffel Tower and I have great interest in French history. Story: Is minic a dhuisím i gceartlar na hoíche nuair a smaoiním siar ar an eachtra uafásach a tharla cúpla mí ó shin - I often wake up in the throws of the night when I think back on the terrible incident that happened a couple of months ago. Fágadh curam an tí ormsa - the custody of the house was left with me. Bhí ag éirí go geal liom - I was feeling great D'ullmhaíomar bia blasta sa chistin - We prepared tasty food in the kitchen Is ansin a fuair mé amach go raibh sé ghlan as a mheabhair ar meisce mar d'ól sé cúpla gloine uisce beatha - It was then I found out he was out of his mind drunk because he drank a couple of glasses of whiskey. Geallaimse duit gur fhoghlaim mé ceacht fúinteach agus beidh mé níos curamaí as seo amach - I am telling you that I learned a valuable lesson and I will be more careful from now on. Chun na fírinne a rá ní dhéanfaidh mé dearmad go deo ar an eachtra uafásach a tharla an oíche sin - To tell you the truth I will never forget that terrible night. Oh and I was just wondering if (BUT ONLY IF YOU HAVE TIME AND NOT BUSY) you have any plantation landowner people in history answers and if so could you put them up? It's not urgent or anything! Oh and thank you very much for those answers above!
