'bhFéadfadh le duine agaibh cabhrú liom?

The Americanisation of Ireland ; source of wealth or the basis of cultural decline

Meiricánachas (?) na hEireann ; foinse an tsaibhris nó búnus meath an chultúir?

Míle,
Domhnall

"Meiricanú" a bheadh agamsa

agus b'fheidir "bunchloch" nó "bunsraith" seachas bunús.
Nó "bunchúis" ag braith ar an gciall atá agat le "basis"

Aontaím le hAonghus.

Gaelaigh (Gaelicize) > Gaelú na hÉireann

Meiriceánaigh > Meiriceánú

Ní fhaca mé an briathar sin riamh, ach tá an t-ainm briathartha intuigthe ar an toirt. Ceist shuimiúil atá agat ansin, dála an scéil!

Grma - i aim to confuse!

Bhí cur i láthair le déanamh agam mar gheall ar seo tamall ó shin, agus is litriú éigin de Meiricánachas a tháinig mé air.. N'fheadar cá háit!

Déarfainn gur Meiriceánú an próiseas, an rud atá ar siúl, agus Meiriceánachas an toradh.

Níl a fhios agam an féidir an difríocht a chur in iúl i mBéarla go sásúil. Tá sé cosúil le "Gaelú" agus "Gaelachas" ar aon nós.

I'm just gonna twist the words a little to make it easier to translate:

The Americanisation of Ireland: A source of wealth or a platform for cultural decline.

Éire a Mheiriceánú: Údar saibhris nó ardán meata c(h)ultúir. (Not sure about the séimhiú there)

"basis" is a very general word to translate. I think you'd want to be a little more specific, e.g. "catalyst", "platform".

-- Fáilte Roimh Cheartú --
Ná húsáidigí focail Béarla agus sibh ag labhairt Gaeilge liom, le bhur dtoil. Ní thabharfaidh mé freagra do theachtaireacht ar bith a bhfuil "Gaeilge" neamhghlan inti.
