I was wondering if anyone could translate a phrase for me. It is for a sympathy note for a friend of mine that is Irish. The phrase is "God never closes a door without opening a window." Thanks in advance, it is much appreciated.

Ní dhruideann Dia doras gan fuinneog a oscailt
I've an idea there is a similar, idiomatic phrase; but I can't remember it now. |

In the archives listed under "God":
Níos dhún Dia doras riamh nár oscail Sé ceann eile. (God never closes a door without opening another.) |

Míle maith agat a Mhaidhc, sin an ceann a bhí i gceist agam, ach níor thaining isteach im intinn ach "Is gaire cabhair Dé ná an doras" |

Ceartaigh = "correct" verb
Ceartú = "correcting / correction" noun. This refers to the process, NOT the object
Ceartaithe = Genetive of "ceartú"
-
Ceartúchán = "correction"
