I need to know what the synatctic relations between the Caps-Locked words is:
Agus ciapann sin mé agus splacann sé ar thóir mé atá AR A LAGHAD ÚDAIR agus AR A LAGHAD CRÍCHE le claochlú na gcnapán guail ina spros luaithreamháin...

ar (a laghad údair) - this is hard to english
"for how little cause and to how little purpose"
perhaps. |

but is the word "údair" in singular genitive or in plural nominative? and the same question about "criche".
Thanks. |

A good question. But one for the grammar geeks, I'm afraid. I think it is singular, gen. |

but you don't have anything grammatical to support this, I guess. It's just a hunch?! |

Tá an ceart ar fad ag Aonghus. "Críocha" an t-ainmneach iolra.
Tá fáilte roimh chuile cheartú!

Sin é. I grew up speaking Irish and English and work on hunches. |

more help is needed in translation (the caps-locked words):
"Ainneoin nach raibh Nóra riamh ní ba ghaire don cheantar seo ná Gaillimh, agus anneoin go raibh sé ina OÍCHE Ó GHAILLIMH ANIAR AR CHÓISIR na bainise aréir..."
