    I need to get this sentence translated into Gaeilge please. Its a bit of a strange one, so has me stumped! Would be looking for a fluent speakers help on this one.


    "whose coat is that jacket?"


    I know it sounds retarded, and i was thinking it would be something along the lines of....

    Ce leis an cota, is e an seaicead sin......
