Say Hello in Irish

Hello = Dia Dhuit

Dia Dhuit is a very common way of saying Hello in Irish. Literally, it means something like “God to you”.

Pronounce it something like this: jee-ah ghwit (that’s a throaty gh).

How are you? = Conas atá tú?

  • Say it like this: cun-us ah-taw too.
  • This is one way of saying it, there are also other ways such as Caidé mar atá tú?.

Now that you have the translation…
