A chairde,
Dúirt mé i comhrá eile anseo go bhfuil "Learning Irish" le Mícheál Ó Siadhail agam. Tá ceist eile agam oraibh anois. Ba mhaith liom "I have only read the first 10 lessons so far" a rá, ach (I'm confused about how) "only" a rá in abairt den chineál seo. Sílim go bhfuil an ceart ag "Tá an chéad deich gceacht léite agam" (I have read the first 10 lessons) agus sílim go bhfuil an ceart ag "Níl agam ach... " (I only have...) freisin. But where do I put the "ach" is a sentence of this sort?
An bhfuil an ceart ag "Níl ach an chéad deich gceacht léite agam" ???
Christine.
p.s. I'd considered registering my user name on this forum but it seems another "Christine" has beaten me to it. Ní mór staideár a ghlacadh leis seo |

Hi Christine,
Níl ionam ach foghlaimeoir mé féin ach dearfainn go mbeadh
'níl ach an chéad deich gceacht léite agam' i gceart.
Fan le tuilleadh ionchuir (wait for more input?)
Go n-éirí leat

Tá. Is féidir "go dtí seo" a chuir leis (so far) |

Táim buíoch díbh as bhur gcúnamh arís, a chairde.
Maidir leis an "An bhfuil an ceart ag....", tá náire bheag orm mar níor cheart dom an earráid sin a dhéanamh ag an bpointe seo. Is cosúil go bhfuil a lán le foghlaim agam fós!

Ná bí buartha.
Ní bhíonn rith maith ag an each i gcónaí.
Tá tú ag déanamh maith go leor, bí cinnte de. |

A Christine, a chara
Scríobh tú "Dúirt mé i comhrá eile anseo go bhfuil "Learning Irish" le Mícheál Ó Siadhail agam." thuas. Le meas, d'iarr tú orainn d'earráidí a cheartú agus nílim cinnte an ndearna tú dearmad clóscríofa nó nach ndearna ach d'fhag tú an urú as an abairt sin. "Dúirt mé i gcomhrá eile..."
_____________
The preposition i (in) eclipses a following noun beginning with a consonant. It becomes in before nouns beginning with a vowel and before dhá, bhur and titles.
You've already demonstrated that you understand how it combines with the single and plural definate article and I'm inclined to believe that the mistake above was indeed just a typo, but just in case it wasn't...
I'd also like to second Seosamh's comment. You're doing very well!
Le meas,
Larry Ackerman

I dtús báire, ba mhaith liom buíochas ar leith a ghabáil leis an modhnóir, Caoimhín, as a chúnamh.
Ní raibh mé in ann clárú ar an gclár seo ar dtús agus ba dheas air cabhrú liom. Go raibh míle maith agat, a Chaoimhín!
A Larry, a chara,
Tá an ceart agat. Rinne mé dearmad (nó earraid??) c(h)lóscríofa leis an deifir a bhí orm. Tá brón orm faoi sin, a chara.
Go raibh míle maith agaibh arís, a Asarlaí, a Aonghuis, a Sheosaimh agus a Larry, as bhur spreagadh.
Christine. |
