    Thanks so much for all your help! :D I want to say as gaeilge 'the three girls in the first picture had finished the leaving cert'. Is it 'bhi na triur cailini i pictiur amhain criochnaithe acu an ardteist!' Thanks ;)

    Also, can I ask is this sentence correct: 'Duirt se lei go bhfuil se deacair ceithre cead pointe a fhail'. 'He told her that it is hard to get four hundred points'! Thanks :)

    Sa chéad phictiúr chríochnaigh na triúr cailíní an tArdteist.

    Make things simple for yourself and use the past tense.

    Dúirt sé léi go mbíonn sé deacair ceithre céad pointe a fháil.

    I would use go mbíonn but I wouldn't be too sure!

    I think you could make an argument for go bhfuil as well as go mbíonn, but it's a minor point.

    Ardteist is feminine AFAIK, so no t. an ardteist.
