Irish Translation Forum

Does anyone knows the meaning of "please" in the opposit site of "thank you" in irisch gaelic. Many posts I have found with the context "please help me", but if I put "please" in the translation formular, I have got this answer: "Sorry, no results found. Please try the additional search options."

Le do thoil
Please

Go raibh maith agat
Thank you

Is this what your asking for, no?

Yes Sir, Go raibh maith agat !

And this is if you're pleasing/thanking one person. If you're talking to multiple people:

Le bhur dtoil

Go raibh maith agaibh

What are the pronunciations for both the singular and plural please and thank you?

I’m not sure if I understand you quite correctly here. By “in the opposite site of »thank you«”, do you mean as a reply to ‘thank you’? As in this type of dialogue in German? :
Danke schön.
— Bitte.

’Cause if that’s what you’re referring to, the answers you’ve been given so far are not what you’re looking for. Le do thoil/le bhur dtoil means ‘please’ in the other sense of ‘please help me’; as a reply to thank you, in the ‘you’re welcome’ sense, you’d use Tá fáilte romhat or Fadhb ar bith or a host of other phrases. Unlike German (and, to some extent, English), Irish has no specific, set word that’s always used as a polite reply to ‘thank you’—there’s a lot more variation in the replies given.
