Would anyone be so kind as to review these sentences. I think they are correct but just want to make sure the grammer is ok. Go raibh maith agaibh.


1. Tarraing fear ar do phictiúr. Cuir hata ar a cheann. Cuir cóta air agus buataisí air

2. Cén sort éadaí atá orthu?

3. Míníonn sí na dathanna éagsúla le cabhrú ón póstaeir.
Roghnaíonn an múinteoir paiste amháin agus deireann sí leis/ léi “Tar anseo agus taispeáin dom scáth fearthainne agus lochán uisce

4. Piocann sí triúr páistí le teacht go barr an ranga. Cuireann na paistí a chótaí agus hataí orthu
Tugann sí scáth fearthainne do páiste amháin. Míníonn sí “Lá Fliuch atá ann” Tarraing sí pictiúr ar an gClár bán chun téarma a mhúineadh agus úsáideann sí an póstaeir. Iarrann sí ar na bpáistí chun dul ag siúl. Tosaíonn na paistí ag siúl. Cuireann an múinteoir ceisteanna ar na bpaistí eile

quote:

1. Tá an lá fliuch nó
2. Lá fliuch atá ann.



Both are correct. The first one means "the day is wet", the second "it is a wet day".

quote:

1. Tarraing fear ar do phictiúr. Cuir hata ar a cheann. Cuir cóta air agus buataisí air



Tarraing fear ar do phictiúr = draw a man on your picture?
I’d say "Cuir cóta agus buataisí air", to avoid repeating "air".

quote:

2. Cén sort éadaí atá orthu?



sórt

quote:

3. Míníonn sí na dathanna éagsúla le cabhrú ón póstaeir.



she explains the different colours?
Anyway it’s "ón bpóstaer" or "ón phóstaer" (no "i", otherwise it would be the plural so it would be "ó na póstaeir")

quote:

Roghnaíonn an múinteoir paiste amháin agus deireann sí leis/ léi “Tar anseo agus taispeáin dom scáth fearthainne agus lochán uisce



páiste amháin (paiste without the síneadh fada means "patch")

quote:

4. Piocann sí triúr páistí le teacht go barr an ranga. Cuireann na paistí a chótaí agus hataí orthu



Cuireann na páistí a gcótaí agus a hataí orthu.

quote:

Tugann sí scáth fearthainne do páiste amháin.



do pháiste (amháin).

quote:

Míníonn sí “Lá Fliuch atá ann” Tarraing sí pictiúr ar an gClár bán chun téarma a mhúineadh



Tarraingíonn sí...chun an téarma a mhúineadh (or is it "a term" ?)

quote:

agus úsáideann sí an póstaeir.



an póstaer

quote:

Iarrann sí ar na bpáistí chun dul ag siúl.



Iarrann sí ar na páistí dul ag siúl.

quote:

Tosaíonn na paistí ag siúl. Cuireann an múinteoir ceisteanna ar na bpaistí eile



Tosaíonn na páistí ag siúl. Cuireann an múinteoir ceisteanna ar na páistí eile.

Ní thuigim. "Deánann = doineann"? Ag stealladh báistí? Ag cur sceana gréasaí? Mar sin atá sé abhus anseo faoi láthair. Bhí mé fliuch báite nuair a bhain mé an teach amach!

Tá sé ag glearadh báistí anseo freisin.

ach "Tá [siad ceart], agus deánann [siad ciall]" a bhí i gceist agam.

Ní ach ag imirt an amadáin atá Dennis, a Aonghuis. Tá síneadh fada curtha os cionn litreach contráilte i d'fhreagra.
