    Hey,
    an Ulsterman recently thought me how to say "anything else" in Irish, but he never told me how to spell it...

    To me it sounds like this...

    Rud(phonetic spelling) air(as in the English word) be(as in the English verb) ela(more phonetic spelling;))

    but I'm guessing it's actually something like...

    Rud ar bí eile:eek:

    I'd love to see some corrections :)...

    rud ar bith eile
    or
    aon rud eile

    if these are coupled with a verb in the negative it would mean
    "nothing else"

    I've seen 'rud inteacht eile' too.

    Cool! I hadn't seen that with 'eile' before, just as a variation on 'eicínt' which is another dialect form for 'éigin'.

    As in 'some thing': rud inteacht/rud éigin, etc.

    Rud inteacht eile= rud éigin eile.
    Is i gcúige Uladh go príomhdha a chluinntear é.
    Sa chaint in amannaí, fuaimaítear é mar
    ineach (gan an dá 't') nó níos minicí mar
    ineacht (gan an chéad 't').
