The irish I am looking for is which ever type we learned in school in limerick as in the dialect. I think it might be from Connacht even tho Limerick is in munster. This is what I have so far " Sí aidhm an tsaoil ná grá a thabhairt do Dhia agus sí sprioc an tsaoil bheith mar aon le Dia" Would "Is í aidhm" be more exact? Can I use agus instead of ; symbol? I noticed most of you used this symbol where im sure I could use an agus. Over all what do you think i should get inked into my skin without a fluint irish speaker telling me its wrong in years to come? lol

That ";" symbol is called a semicolon, and the way they're wording this, it's needed. It's a grammatical thing.
