    Is this your homework? If so, do it yourself!

    Hint: its about the body of the three yr old Syrian boy who was washed up on the beach in Turkey

    Is it the expression "cothrom na seachtaine seo' that's confusing you? If so look at meaning 3. In teanglann for cothrom.

    does 'a tháinig i dtír ar thrá sa Tuirc' mean 'who came ashore on the beach in turkey'?

    Ar thrá = "on a beach"

    If you did want to say "on the beach" it would be "ar an trá".
