Bill Don, I've merged your threads.

You're welcome to ask for confirmation; in fact, we encourage you to do so. But please keep all discussion pertaining to this discussion on one thread. If your request scrolls of the first page without confirmation , post a follow-up to your own message to bump up the priority of the thread. Do this in the same thread by clicking on the Post Reply button. (In the body of the message, you can just say "bump".) Do not start a new thread because that just starts the discussion all over again, with a new group of people who haven't had the benefit of seeing the previous discussion.

That "someone" is either using Google Translate, or they're trying to use a dictionary without knowing the grammar of the language. Whichever it is, I wouldn't bother getting any more translations from that source.

I'm guessing a dictionary, since Google Translate actually got "I lámha Dé" right (miracle of miracles!)

But yes...that "someone" definitely does not know Irish. Instead of asking us to approve their bogus translations, eliminate the middle man and just ask us directly.
