How would you make a word like uisce emphatic? uiscesa? M'uiscesa? Doesn't look right...any pointers?

M'uiscese (caol le caol)

-se [iarmhír]
mír a chuirtear le focal chun béim a chur air (bhur gcuidse, mo chairdese; táimse go maith; sibhse a dúirt é; ceann duitse agus ceann dise).

-sa [iarmhír]
mír a chuirtear le focal chun béim a chur air (mo cheannsa, do leabharsa; ní liomsa ná leatsa é; bheifeása chomh maith leis).


Alternatively:
Mo chuidse uisce.

Uisce is already emphatic.

D'ól mé uisce [Emphatic]

D'ól mé é [Non-Emphatic]

Is uisce gur ól mé [Very Emphatic, defining the object exactly]

I'm tempted to use bad language here.

The phrase was "My water" - to emphasise the fact that it is my water, you would write/say m'uiscese.

A Fhear na mBróg,

Chonaic mé inné go raibh tú réidh leis an ardteist ach le teann deifre ní bhfuaireas deis do scéala agus d'athrú saoil a mhaireachaint leat.
Táim á scríobh ar an tsnáithe chontráilte - maithigí dom é a chairde.
Go mairir an tsaoirse mhór, sos an tsamhraidh agus go siúilir isteach san institiúid nó san aird is mian leat.

Tá "Tóg é go bog é" mícheart.

It's about as correct as:
