Many thanks to Pol for the answer to my previous query!

There are two more english phrases I would appreciated translated into Gaelic (along with correct pronunciations).

The first is:

"My Queen, the Court is assembling!"

The second is:

"Tonight... this fool shall be your jester!"

Again, thank you for any assistance!

Tom

"My Queen, the Court is assembling!"

Not as easy as it looks

'cos if you translated it word for word in Irish -the question would be -

The court is assembling what? A lego set? An airplane model? :mrgreen:

I've gone for


A Bhanrion, tá crinniú na Cúirte ag tarlú (anois)

My Queen, an assembly of the Court is taking place (now)


Sorry I don't know the word for jester :oops:
It's a job that's never started that takes the longest to finish.

CROSÁN for jester!


"Tonight... this fool shall be your jester!"

Anocht... is é do chrosán a mbeidh an t-amadán seo.

Tonight ..it is your jester that this fool will be.

Ignore that last translation- following some very sound advise from Tadgh- a revised and corrected translation is suggested

Anocht... beidh an t-amadán seo mar chrosán agat.


That is assuming the 'YOUR' in the original English version is Singular

If the YOUR was plural change the last word to agaibh

Thanks to Tadgh
