Dia daoibh! Mise Faolchú Rua (nó "Redwolf" as Béarla). Tá mé i mo chónaí sna Sleibhte Santa Cruz, i gCalifornia, S.A.M. Tá mé ag foghlaim an Ghaeilge le trí bhliain go leith anuas, i m'aonar go formhór, agus leis an cúnamh mo gcarad ar an idirlíon (ach anois tá múinteoir agam...buíochas le Dia!).
Ní féidir liom smaointe rud eile a rá faoi láthair, ach ba mian liom "hoigh" a rá agus "introduce myself" (now there's an idiom I haven't picked up yet!).

Fáilte, a Fhaolchú Rua.
I would like to introduce myself = Ba mhaith liom a ligean m'aithne libh. B'fhéidir?
I modified what I found in De Bhaldraithe's English-Irish Dictionary, under introduce I introduced myself as lig mé m'aithne leis.

Ach faraor, beagáinín aisteach.
"Ba mhaith liom mé fhéin a chuir in aithne daoibh" a bheadh agamsa.
Fáilte romhat, a fhaol chon rua |

The verbal noun of "cuir" is "cur"... ;-) --> "mé féin a chur in aithne daoibh"
"Ba mhaith liom a ligean m'aithne libh" -> the right word order is "Ba mhaith liom m'aithne a ligean libh"

Go raibh maith agaibh a Lughaidh. B'fhéidir nach bhfuil sé aisteach anois? Ó Foclóir Gaeilge-Béarla: Aisteach, a1 1.(a) Peculiar, queer. (b) Wonderful, surprising. 2. Droll. Cé acu?

Ní fhuaimníthear an dá fhocal ar an dóigh chéarna, áfach -- go háiríd i nGaoth Dobhair: cur [kˠʌɾ] / cuir [kˠʌj]. ;-)

Scríobh Faolchú: I'm going to add this to my "cheat sheet" file (which, after three and a half years, is almost as big as a book)
B'fhéidir gur féidir leat leabhar a phoibliú. Conas deitear "cheat sheet" as Gaeilge - braíllín caimiléara?
