wait for more opinions.

I would have said "le haon". Is that a dialect thing?

You are right Wombat.
I've been told by my grammar expert that in standard written Irish you have to put a ''h'' but its left out in speech.

Myself and your grammar expert have thought the same thing

Its mentioned in one of my books, can't remember which one.

thanks for your feedback everyone

so aside from the grammer, would everyone agree on this translation for the content?

I confirm Bríds translation, but there is one small thing that has to be added, here it is in red:

Ní féidir le haon rud ógra seasamh

Still wait for more opinions, it would do you all the best to get as much confirmation as possible.

Okay thank you

Benjamin, you've introduced a new mistake. ógra means "youths" "Nothing belonging to youths can last"
While true, I think it would be good to return to Bríd's órga with the new corrected h:

Ní féidir le haon rud órga seasamh.

This is good.


PS: It's always a good idea to copy the original and add corrections rather than re-typing; otherwise triple check.
