Irish Translation Forum

The following is by Capurso Alessandro (the Italian is the original). Translations seem straightforward enough, but any corrections are very welcome. As always I would value very much getting the Welsh from Cymro-Breatnach.

Chi sono
io veramente?
Chi sono?

Qui suis-je
vraiment?
Qui suis-je?

Cò mise
dha-rìribh?
Cò mise?

Cé mise
dáiríre?
Cé mise?

Who am I
really?
Who am I?

some Welsh prep:

Who? = Pwy?
Really = Mewn gwirionedd

The Irish looks fine to me (maybe i ndáiríre?? )

And here it is in German and Spanish, ya never know, just in case !

Wer bin ich
wirklich?
Wer bin ich?

Quién soy
yo verdaderamente?
Quién soy yo?

I would tend to i ndáiríre as well

German is AOK

Danke schön!

Cé mise
i ndáiríre?
Cé mise?

Thanks both for your advice. AND for the other languages. Great!

I hope you don't mind if I suggest the following to get the exact nuance as in the original Italian:

?Quién soy
yo verdaderamente?
?Quién soy?

(I can't find the upside-down question marks for the beginning of each sentence.)

Welsh:

Pwy ydwyf
fi mewn gwirionedd?
Pwy ydwyf?

Hi, Cymro-Breatnach,

thanks very much indeed. I like the look of the Welsh here.

Thanks. It's very literary Welsh. I wanted to keep the pronoun in the second line as in the original Italian, where it is used for stress.

I'm sure people will like all the Ws and the Ys!

Found it!
Its Alt + 168


¿Quién soy
yo verdaderamente?
¿Quién soy?
