    Focal.ie should be your first port of call for these terms.

    Bhain mé triail as agus seo mar a fuarthas:

    cruinniú fir ginearálta bliantúil
    cruinniú fir cinn bhliana
    cruinniú fir ceann bliana.

    Tá an 'personal touch' go deas freisin....

    That's a pretty confusing way to post the reply, I think. I presume you just pasted it from focal.ie. However, on focal.ie, the "fir" is just there to tell you that "cruinniú" is masculine, but it in pasting it you've lost the formatting, so it looks like it's meant to be part of the phrase. I was scratching my head as to why one needed to say that it was a meeting of men only!

    Yes, a bit of common sense works wonders in these situations.
