  1. hello/hi = dia dhuit

    good morning = dia dhuit ar maidin

    good afternoon = dia dhuit tráthnóna

    good evening = dia dhuit tráthnóna

    my name is = .....is ainm dom

    at home = abhaile

    christmas = Nollaig

    summer = samhradh

    winter = geimhreadh

  2. Ooh, Irish Gaelic.

    Most seem to be there.

    Good luck.

  3. Everything that was posted by jk is correct (and I gave her a thumbs up) except for the meaning of "at home".

    Please correct me if I'm wrong jk, but it is my understanding that the word "abhaile" connotes motion, as in:

    Táim ag dul abhaile. (I am going home.)

    Abhaile would be used when someone or something is heading "homeward".

    In Munster, "at home" is "sa bhaile" (Cork dialect) or "ag baile" (Kerry dialect).

    By the way, the answer to "Dia dhuit" is "Dia 's Muire dhuit" although in Músgraí, the normal everyday way of saying hello is just "Dia 's Muire dhuit".

    "Conas atá tú?" is often written and pronounced "Conas tánn tú?" in the South. Another way to say "How are you?" in the south of Ireland is "Conas taoi?" This is usually used by older people, or when speaking to older people, and is a very nice way of asking how someone is doing.
