"Má chaith Colm riamh pósadh ina cheann i Meiriceá, níor lig sé sin amach. Anois, nuair a tosaíodh á shamhlú leis, níor dhúirt sé 'thú ná mé'. San am ar thosaigh a dheirfiúracha ag déanamh cleamhnais dó níor dhúirt sé 'thú ná mé' ach oiread."

I understand the words and the grammar, but I don't understand the use of "níor dhúirt sé 'thú ná mé'" in this context.

Is dóigh liom gur nath atá ann; ní dúirt sé faic, níor ghlac sé páirt ar bith sa phlé.

Is daoine eile ar fad atá ag smaoineamh gur cheart dó pósadh.
