can someone tell me an interpretation of
Ishteach leat
it seems to be at the end of a sentence and a way of saying good-bye or something to the effect
I know it means literally ' inside with you '

could that be interpreted as
' away with you ' or get yourself inside ??

thanks in advance

Isteach leat

Literally means:

In with you


Like a lot of terms, it can be malicious or friendly. Consider a child staying out past their bed time, they arrive back at the house and the father comes out with a belt in his hand, "In with you!".

And then consider a group of friends heading down the pub and the owner comes out to greet them all smiles and cheers, "In with you!".

"Away with you" would be:

Imigh leat!

"Cé tusa?" an frása atá uait. Úsáidtear "é", "í" nó "iad" nuair is ainmfhocal caillithe atá i gceist:

Cé hé Seán?
Cad é an t-am? (which becomes) Cén t-am?
Cé tusa?
Cé heisean?
Cé hise?
Cé hiadsan?



Mise Fear na mBróg.

Something along the lines of:

Mo stór milis gráfach, tá tú i m'anam is mo chroí go deo.

Not sure about "gráfach" there though.

A dhiarmo , I would imagine there would be some work as an english teacher if this is what you meant but its a flooded market. If you have a tefl then you would have an advantage as schools would take you on , if not then you would have to get some private students . You wouldnt make your fortune through it though , Good luck all the same
