Irish Translation Forum

hey people! i'm new here, and really exited about having found out about this place! i'm second generation irish-canadian on my mother's side and i've always been really interested in my heritage. i speak several languages and am always learning more, i tried to teach myself gaelic a few years ago but without any teachers or even recordings (a poor subsitute) i had a hard time and eventually gave up. i'm looking forward to being part of this place, definately! what i do need though, is a translation, that's how i' found this place. someone's been a bit mean to me, and sent me this in a letter, so if it's vulgar or anything, i apologize most profusely! i'd just like it translated if anyone can help! here's the phrase
I dtir na ndall is ri fear na leathshuile.

Ta tu ag glagaireacht!:

thank you guys ever so much i really really appreciate it, and i'll see ya'll later!
~peace,frog!~
