    If so how would you translate

    always and forever?

    Looking for an inscription that would read

    "a ghra mo chroi always and forever" in Irish?

    thanks for that.

    So would the complete sentence be

    a ghra mo chroi a choíche agus go deo?

    Some one sent me this


    Beidh mé grá agat i gcónaí agus go deo

    Is that the same thing or something different?

    No, that's not right. You had it fine earlier with
    A ghrá mo chroí, a choíche agus go deo.

    Grá mo chroí, i gcónaí agus go deo

    That's an awful translation! :o

    An ex-girlfriend of mine once gave me a gift inscribed with:

    "_____, is leis mo chroí go deo."

    That'd be one nice way of writing it.

    What does that mean?

    I checked google translate and it has

    I will love you always and forever.

    Is that what its meant to be?

    It literally translates as "My heart belongs to _____ forever", but the meaning was that it'd be love forever. Not that it actually worked out that way! :pac:

    Something to think about. Its for wedding rings
