Lesson 5 Dinner or lunch?

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.
