By the way, does anybody know of a site like this that translates into Welsh?

Tá maithiúnas oraibh = You (multiple people) are forgiven

Tá an mhallacht briste = The curse is broken

Tá na mic tíre = The wolves are released (I really like the verb 'released'. It's a great way to express what happens in the story)

Thanks again, Steve


You're missing a word in that last one, Steve! It's "tá na mic tíre scaoilte". Without that, all you have is "the wolves are...".

Do wait for someone to check and confirm mine before committing to use them.

Re you other question, I believe there ARE Welsh forums, but I don't know what the URLs are. Perhaps a moderator can edit your head post to add the letters CY to it...we do have Welsh speakers who come through here, and they might be able to steer you in the right direction.

or Maithimid thú (We forgive you)

Would that not be a bit béarlachasy? Isn't it Maithim duit é? Or Tá maithiúnas tugtha duit

Correct Maithim duit é would be better

Actually Maithim daoibh é/Tá maithiúnas tugtha daoibh since this is being addressed at multiple people, right?
