Could one say the former? If so, does it have some difference in meaning? |

It sounds like you meant to say tinneas but had a brain fart. |

Aye, you can't say "tá tinn orm", it means "there is sick on me", while it should be "tá tinneas orm" (there is a disease on me). Learn Irish pronunciation here: http://loig.cheveau.ifrance.com/irish/irishsounds/irishsounds.html & http://fsii.gaeilge.org/

Aye, that error answered it's own question: dá mbeadh tinneas orm vs. dá mbeadh tinn Sorry about that! |

Of course, but it could have been 'mbeadh sé'; the point was the use of the preposition with a noun and the adjective with a verb! |
