Beginners: I did a short writeup on how to play 20 questions in irish. You can find it at http://www.everything2.com/index.pl?node_id=1673050 . Move your mouse over the word to get an approximate guide to pronunciation.

I'm thinking of a familiar "something" in my house. First question, anyone?

Rules for Beginners League
* If you don't know the Irish word for something, feel free to mix and match languages. For example: An bhfuil sé 'alive'. The rest of us will help you with any words you don't know.
* If you're "it", choose a very simple object for us to guess. If you want to use a sneaky object, try the other "Fiche Ceist" thread.
* If you're "it", please respond with a list of all the answers you've given so far".

OK...shall I start? I'm thinking of something (Tá mé ag smaoineamh faoi rud(?) or maybe "tá sé faoi smaoineamh agam," as Conor said, would be better).

no - because Conor made up "tá sé faoi smaoineamh agam" and it's probably the shittest construction i've heard :bgdev:
