No not necceserily, i don't think. iad is already there as part of the sr.bhriathar lonnraítear or as part of the form tháite- lonnraíd (onnraíonn siad)

Ah, I see my mistake. I was applying "ina" to both an fhoirm tháite or an saorbhriathar (instead of just to the srb) - which was confusing me!

ya I could see where your coming from alright
