    Hi all

    maybe somebody can help.
    I would need the sentence "This too shall pass" translated into irish, if possible with a hint on how to pronounce as well.
    Also possible would be an irish saying with the same meaning (as in "also the bad things will go by").

    anybody out there with an idea?

    thanks,
    sunny :)

    We need context, context and context.

    going without any context two proverbs spring to mind

    'Níl in aon rud ach seal'
    its english equivelent would be 'nothing lasts forever'

    the pronunciation would be /nee-l in ahn rud ach shahl/

    'Dá fhada an lá tagann an tráthnóna'
    'However long the day, the evening will come'

    /daw aw-dah an law tah-gun on traw-no-nah/

    cmd, this is what i was looking for. i need something which has a similar meaning as mentioned in my original post but which also can stand without context so i'd say your two proverbs pretty much cover that. now i only need to figure out the pronounciation. thanks a mil!!
