I want to get a tattoo with the english equivalant being "never give up" or something along those lines. If someone could translate this for me I would very much appreciate it. Also if you happen to know the pronunciation that would be great thanks. Last edited by Foxhunter on January 17 2004, 0:08 AM, edited 1 time in total.

Éirigh as rhiamh or Tabhair suas rhiamh Sorry, don't know which one to use, wait for other input Ní bheidh Éire shaor ar síocháin choíche, agus gan an ceart, ní féidir an tsíocháin a bheith ann. Tomás Ó Broin Learning Irish since October 2003

Good ones by Obroin there I just think they may have to be in the negative - So here's another way, perhaps? Never give up = Ná lig as choíche (kinda, don't let from ever) Never Forget = Ná déan dearmad choíche Slán Sam

I would recommend ná géill choíche! "Tá an saol mór lán den fhilíocht ag an té dar dual a thuigbheáil agus ní thráfaidh an tobar go deo na ndeor." Seosamh Mac Grianna, Mo Bhealach Féin
