Can someone please translate the following.

Waterford is the largest city in Ireland to retain its Viking-derived name, Vedrarfjord. Reginald's Tower, named after the city's founder, Regnall, is the oldest urban civic building in Ireland, and the oldest monument to retain its Viking name. It is to this day Waterford's most recognisable landmark.

The population of the city in 2006 was 49,240; of which 45,775 lived within the city limits, and 3,465 lived in the city's suburbs in County Kilkenny.

Thank you for all of your help. I am very grateful!

Sí Port Láirge an cathair is sine in Éirinn a bhfuil ainm Lochlannach fós uirthi sa Bhéarla. As Vedrarfjord as thagann an t-ainm Waterford. Sé Túr Raghnall, ainmnithe do bunaitheoir na cathrach, Regnall, an foirgneamh cathrach is sine in Éirinn, agus an séadchomhartha is sine a bhfuil ainm Lochlannach fós air. Go dtí an lá atá inniu ann, 'sé an sainchomhartha is so-aitheanta i bPort Láirge é.

Chónaigh 49,240 sa chathair i 2006; ina náirítear an 45,775 a chónaigh laistigh de limistéir na cathrach agus 3465 sna bhruachbhailte i gContae Chill Channaigh.



Tá súil agam nach obair ghairmiúil atá i gceist leis seo! Tá daoine cuí ann chun a leithéid a sholáthar, agus níl mise orthu.
