    Dia dhuit leaids, táim ag iarraidh liosta a chur le chéile d'fhocail sa Ghaeilge agus sa Fhraincís atá beagnach mar an gcéanna nó ar a laghad cosúil lena chéile. B'fhearr liom focail nach bhfuil mar an gcéanna sa Bhéarla fresin má dtuigtear mé. Tuigim gur as bunús na dteangacha seo mar teangacha Inda-Eorpaigh a thagann an chuid is mó de na cosúileachtaí seo. Faoi láthair ní féidir liom ach smaoineamh ar thrí sampla:

    corp = corps
    muir = mer
    garsún = garçon

    An bhfuil éinne eile in ann smaoineamh ar chinn? GRMA :pac:

    Nuair a bhí mé ag foghlaim na fraincais sa scoil, dúirt mo mhuinteoir go bhfuil cuid de na laetha seachtaine cosúil le chéile:

    Lundi - dé luain
    Mardi - dé mairt

    Níl mé in ann smaointiú ar samplá ar bith eile díreach anois.

    buidéal = bouteille
    maidin = matin
    cóta máille = côte de maille

    Foilsíodh Foclóir Gaeilge-Fraincis sna 50aidí.
    Risteard de Hae a scríobh, ach ní dóigh liom gur féidir teacht air níos mó, ach amáin i leabharlanna speisialta, b'fhéidir.

    Lapin atá acu sa Fhraincis ar COINÍN,
    ach i Spáinis is é CONEJO an focal atá acu,
    CONIGLIO san Iodáilis, KANINCHEN sa Ghearmáinis
    agus an ceann is cóngraí ar fad ná KONIJN san Ollainis.
    (Coineanach atá acu sa Ghàidhlig).

    Labhraím Spáinnis chomh mhaith agus tá roinnt focail cosúla eatartha
    capaill = caballo
    rí = rey
    muir = mar
    coinín = conejo
    eaglais = iglesia
    dé Luain = lunes
    dé Máirt = martes
    dé Domhnach = domingo

    Ní feidir liom smaoint ar aon cinn eile sa noiméad.

    An ghaeilge ar 'pineapple' ná anann. An-chosúil le cuid mhaith teangacha eorpacha eile ... ach amháin an Béarla! (Fraincis: ananas)

    Huh? "é" means "he", while "est" means "is".

    In the Irish phrase "Is é...", the "is" is the copula.

    Well, they can be used in quite similar situations.

    is é an lá céanna é
    is é sin
    Cén t-am é

    The "é" refers to he/him/it (a noun)

    "est" refers to is/being (a verb).

    I don't think that one works.

    This is a good French/Irish dictionary.

    But it seems to be hard to find now.

    I see (above) that ri is equated with roi - it would more correct to say that the Irish ri is related to the Gaulish rix as in Vercingétorix - cinget means the one or ones who march, ie warriors and in Old Irish there's cing which also means a warrior.
