Irish Translation Forum

Hi I need some help please:)

Could someone please translate the word shine for me please, as in the shine from a waxed car!(and also a pronounciation)

Thanks Heaps

Lynchy

loinnir

Wait for confirmation on that.

Thankyou ..... how would that be pronounced?

lonraigh

have it confirmed first though... don't know how it's pronounced

Just to Lynchy, we're both right.

loinnir is the noun, while lonraigh is the verb.

I just assumed you wanted the noun.

I think that would be the verb..eg..to shine something

Thanks hepas guys I was after the noun ....any rough ideas on pronounciation ??

another word is -
Snas

which might be better in this context.

For me "Lonraigh" is more like something that emits light like the Sun.

But I could be wrong.

snas (polish) is fine. Loinnir (gleam/glint - in the context of one's eyes, for example) is perfect I reckon.

Sweet thanks for all your help

I think Loinnir fits best as when you put it in the dictionary you get

TRANSLATION:
loinnir = brilliance f
loinnir = n sheen f
loinnir = n shimmering f
loinnir = n shine f
Which is perfect as im starting a car detailing buisness

Now as im looking at having this as a buisness name I really, really need to know how to pronounce it? Any help would be awesome!
