    I want to say as gaeilge: ' The doctor did not help the boy yet'! Do I say 'Ni raibh an doctuir ag cabhair/chathraigh an buachaill fos'?? Thanks! ;)

    Is it ok to say as gaeilge 'Ni raibh an sean fhear a fhios conas a tharla se'. 'The old man did not know how it happened'

    No need for a separate thread for every question. I've merged them all into one for you. :)

    You'd say "Dúirt an bainisteoir leis an mbanaltra".

    You may find a lot of examples how and when to use which preposition in Lars Braesicke's gramadach - I'm not allowed to post a link, but you'll find it at nualeargais.ie

    Chonaic an t-imreoir x-gha dá chos.

    Ní raibh a fhios ag an seanfhear conas a tharla sé.

    Níor thug an dochtúir cabhair don bhuachaill fós.
