One of the Google on-line reprints (thanks, Mike!) is
An Introduction to the Irish Language by Wm. Neilson, 1808. It has quite a few pages of "Familiar Phrases" and "Dialogues", which I skimmed looking for examples relevant to our recent discussions. I came up with the following:
Thank you (but no "you're welcome"):
- Cionas ta Sèan aniu?
- Ta moran nios fearr, a dheagh ghradh,
taim buid[h]each dhuitse.
-Fa thuairim do shlàinte.
Go raibh maith agad. (trans. "To your health. Thank you.")
Work and operate:
- Nar
oibrigh na hiceadh go mait[h]? [íoca = medicaments]
Bon appétit:
Bigidh go subhach. Go ndeana se mòr mhaith dhuit. (trans. "Sit ye merry. Much good may it do you.)
There is also a section within "Familiar Phrases" entitled "Promiscuous Phrases". The second phrase listed there is "Ca fhada rachas tu?" (How far will you go?)
Other phrases in the "promiscuous" section include:
Bhfuil tu ar ti mo mharbhadh? (Are you about to kill me?)
Ta fìon agam dhuit. (I have wine for you.)
