  1. Something about Doughnuts, God being with you and Ireland being lovely.


  2. That doesn't look anything like Irish. Just some gibberish that looks like someone's idea of it.

    It's hard enough to find an Irish-English translator you have to PAY, dearie .....

  3. www.freetranslation.com

  4. It is not Irish.  It sounds as if someone is phonetically spelling a few random Irish words but getting them all wrong.  Even if they were spelt correctly they make no sense.

  5. That Irish is so wrong. I really hope the person who wrote it doesnt believe they know Irish. It must be someone playing a joke. They must know its meaningless and that you will spend ages trying to understand it.

  6. www.englishirishdictionary.com

    i know that slan means bye and go bra means something  lik i love or brilliant... but look it up lol im bad at irish x

  7. freetranslation.com

  8. try this it might help

    http://www.englishirishdictionary.com/

  9. according to Google its

    From caugher the geg to the dough; hought.Duidh duith.Slan.Eirene go brazil

  10. http://www.irishgaelictranslator.com/

  11. It's phonetic spelling for what translates as "four five two eight.

    Hello.Goodbye.Ireland forever"- somebody is trying to let on they speak irish and guess what......they can't.

  12. You could try www.proz.com

    There are real human translators hunting for jobs... and I'm sure some of them would translate your short sentence for free.

    Another option is www.traduguide.com.

    good luck!

  13. went to this guy in getting my family tree sorted "as Gaeilege"

    Tarquinmontreau@yahoo.co.uk.  Hope this helps.

  14. Well for a start the person doesn't know how to spell Irish words correctly..don't bother looking up Irish words..they're all wrong so you'll just be wasting your time!

    All I can make out is 'Duidh duith' which is really meant to be 'Dia duit' which means God be with you but is the term used to say Hello in Irish. Also Slan is actually meant to be slán which means bye. And Eirene go bra is meant to be Eire go breá which means Ireland is fine but whoever it is used bad grammar!

    The first sentence I don't have a clue! Well Da is 'if' I think!!

    Hope I helped :P

  15. Bunch of incorrectly spelled numbers!

    Who ever sent you that needs a slap for thinking they can get away with that!!

  16. That is the worst attempt at Irish I have ever seen.

    It seems like whoever wrote it tried to write it out phonetically but they failed even at that. If you read it out loud it sounds like it should be,

    A ceathrar a cúig a dó a hocht. Dia dhuit. Slán, Éireann go brách.

    A ceathrar = four

    a cúig = five

    a dó = two

    a hocht = eight

    Dia dhuit = Hello

    Slán = bye

    Éireann go brách = Ireland forever

    No actual Irish speaker would write like that though. Its really bad.

    Whoever sent it - Níl siad Gaeilgeoirí  (they are not Irish speakers)
