My wife of 38 years passed away on 31 May 2005. We are having a memorial service for her on 18 Jun for which I have written a program.
At the end of her biography I want to include the phrase "Slán agus beannacht le buaireamh an tsaoil" which, roughly translated, I believe means "A blessed farewell from the troubles of life"
If I am correct, the phonetic pronunciation of that phrase is "Slahn Ahgus buhn-acht leh (buaireamh) ahn teel"
Can anyone give me the phonetic pronunciation of buaireamh?
Go raibh maith agat,
Brian Kelly |

Brian,
Sorry to hear of your loss.
The word "beannacht" is pronounced "ban-acht."
The word "buaireamh" is pronounced "buh-ruv"
Le meas,
Dáithí |
