http://www.irishgaelictranslator.com/translation/viewtopic.61405.html&postdays=0 &postorder=asc&highlight=tsualainn+t&start=10 http://www.daltai.com/discus/messages/12465/10519.html Here we have the issue of 'Déanta i(n) X' which was objected to previously on the grounds that the verbal adjective codes for state, rather than action (which I would agree with and makes sense). While it is a handy construction, it is a bit of a griffin, all things told |

On Irish passport forms you have to tick a box to say where you were born. One of the options is: Rugadh in Éirinn as opposed to: Breithe in Éirinn |

Rugadh in Éirinn is correct, Breithe would indicate a statement. Daithí |

The reason I brought it up is that you could have: Rinneadh in Éirinn instead of: Déanta in Éirinn |
