I based mine on the bible translation... I believe the phrase is based on Ecc 3:17. No point reinventing the wheel.

fair eneough

''Ia33:22: Oír isé an Tighearna ar mbreith- eamh: isé an Tighearna tabharthach ar ndlighe: isé an Tighearna ar Rígh: cuimhdeochuidh sé sinn.''

now granted that is older irish - but is that the qoute?

Sorry to hijack, but could someone please translate 'Make Time' in Irish.

Thanks in advance

Bob

[jamesnp]

you should probably start a new topic... But what do you mean by 'make time', it's a bit ambiguous as it stands?

[bobk]

As in to make time for oneself.

I just figured this thread header was appropriate.

Thanks

I think this could actually be a good thread for people to ask for simple corrections/translations. Or at least a new thread could be set up for this purpose.

My one is, is Tomás mac Seáin Ó Cónaill the correct Irish for Tomás son of Seán Ó Cónaill, or is it Tomás mac Sheáin Ó Cónaill?

[An gal gréine]

Tomás, mac Sheáin Uí Chonaill.
There's no fada on the 'o' of 'Chonaill' despite G.A.A. commentators insisting on it in speech.

[conchubhar1]

ó conaill the story teller? yes there is a fada in his name

i thought you meant no ''ó'' - fair eneough
