I know marry is bposfaidh (right?), but what is "wedding" and how's it pronounced?
Thanks so much.

pósadh
pronounced poce-ah (that is the 'o' sound as in most or post) It's a job that's never started that takes the longest to finish.

To marry = Pósaigh or Gabháil céile
but obviouslly I marry does not equal Pósaigh mé or Gabháil céile mé |

A chairde,
I would translate '(an) pósadh' as 'marriage' and 'bainis' as 'wedding' Beatha teanga í a labhairt,
buanú teanga í a scríobh. (neafaisiú teanga í a thatuáil?) |

So here is a related question. How would you translate the phrase "Yes, I will marry you" into Irish Gaelic?

Any thoughts on the above?

There is no Irish word for Yes or for No.
'I will marry you' is Pósfaidh mé tú "Tá an saol mór lán den fhilíocht ag an té dar dual a thuigbheáil agus ní thráfaidh an tobar go deo na ndeor."

Well if it was in reply to a question posed/or implied is a certain way-
there surely is an Irish word(roundabout) for YES 'Sea-Pósfaidh me thú The question -quite normal in the Irish idiom is Is it a thing that you will to marry me? answer It is(YES) It's a job that's never started that takes the longest to finish.
