So what is the translation for understanding? I've found a couple of versions in the online dictionaries, but am clueless as to which one fits me. I'm female...I want it to be equivalent to the English adjective meaning.
Thanks!

I'm getting a tattoo tomorrow night, and I had originally chosen the sanskit text for "understanding" but sanskrit is not in keeping with my heritage, and now I'm thinking that I would prefer Gaelic.

Tuiscint
That's the word you're looking for. "Tá an saol mór lán den fhilíocht ag an té dar dual a thuigbheáil agus ní thráfaidh an tobar go deo na ndeor."

I always muck up the sentence that it's in by saying it wrong
