Just some questions:

1.) Isn't the phrase "De réir a chéile a thógtar na caisleáin" or something to that effect -- castles are built bit by bit (Rome wasn't built in a day)???

2.) Are "inár n-aonar" "in bhur n-aonar" and "ina n-aonar" actually used?

some people also pronounce "faic" with a slight w in it - like "quack" but with an f instead of a q :lach:

Or even
Ní neart go chur le chéile?

I remember it well
The first time that I saw
Your head round the door
Cos mine stopped working
