So, in the car on the way home it struck me that this is way wrong, isn't it (from the other thread):

B'fheidir go bhfuil an cúrsa seo an mhíorúilt go lorgaí mé!

First off this would need the copula, wouldn't it. And "go lorgaí" is wrong because I wouldn't need a subjunctive but rather something like... cé lorgaím?

Would somebody correct this for me?! This will bug me. I'm trying to say "Maybe this course is the miracle I seek".

grmh!

B'fhéidir gurbh é an cúrsa seo an míorúilt atá á lorg agam.

Maybe: B’fhéidir gurb é an cúrsa seo an mhíorúilt atá á lorg agam / atá mé a lorg.
(gurbh > past & conditional)
