Dia dhaoibh,  This week we are going to try a little conversation in class.

Some of our children are asking for lunch or dinner in Irish.

We could start with;

Dinner or Lunch                  Lón        Dinnéar

The next step would be to add please ( le do thoil)

• Dinner or lunch please

  Lón le do thoil  (Loan le do hull)

   Dinnéar le do thoil  (Jin-yer le do hull)

To take it even further;

What would you like today?

Cad é ba mhaith leat inniu?    (Ca jay ba why lat in-you)

• I would like dinner or lunch please.

        Ba mhaith liom.…..le do thoil  (Ba why liom……le do hull)

Fruit 

Some children are also asking for their fruit in Irish.

Oráiste - Orange

Banana- Banana

Úll - Apple

tósta- Toast

Again, we can say just the noun or make it into a sentence.

Attached is the Irish translation and I have saved all in Staff Folder.  Staff-Irish- phrases.
