Embroiderer
Posted on Thursday, February 24, 2000 - 11:12 pm:   Edit Post Print Post

Hi.
I have been searching to find if there is an Irish Gaelic phrase that would be the equivalent of "sweet dreams" or "pleasant dreams." If not, then perhaps something along the lines of "sleep well"?

If you know of one, I would be most appreciative! It is simply for personal use, as I have an Irish friend with a St. Patrick's Day birthday, for whom I am making a quilt, on which I would like to embroider something in Gaelic.
Thank you!

is "coladh sámh" ar fheabhas, ach is fearr liom:

"codail go sámh".

Si, pero!,
coladh sámh a deirimse le mo phaistí, agus a dúirt mo mhuintir liomsa!

"codail go sámh" sounds too much like an order to me, coladh sámh is the wish.

Hasta lluego
