    Níl cead ag aon duine teorainn a chur ar ghluaiseacht náisiúin.

    Hmmm, mostly, cead is more to be allowed I would think...

    what would people think of:

    Níl sé mar ceart ag aon duine teorainn a chur ar ghluaiseacht náisiúin.

    Níl ceart ag duine ar bith teorainn a chur ar fhorás náisiúin

    I like the word forás.

    If you like your own formation, maybe "Níl sé mar ceart ag duine ar bith teorainn a chur ar fhorás náisiúin."

    Gluaiseacht implies actual movement to my ear, whereas forás is a more poetical sort of "progress", but when you're translating rhetoric it's always going to be pretty ambiguous.

    What would people reckon of this ???
