    Dia duit,

    I was wondering how you would say iCycle in Irish.
    Some of my more knowledgeable friends are torn between Rothaím and Rothaim (without a fada).

    Cén freagraí is fearr libhse? (sorry for the rusty Gaeilge!)

    "Is fearr Gaeilge bhriste ná Béarla cliste."

    "Rothaím" is the correct equivalent of "I cycle". The fada is there as verbs that end in -igh or -aigh (rothaigh) must have that fada in the present tense.

    Agus níl aon ní níos fearr ná Gaeilge chliste :D
