More context would help.
An bhfuil fhios agat cad atá le rá agat?
... cad atá le deánamh agat? (what you must do)
or
... conas tú fhéin a iompair (how to behave) |

no real context at all, just wanting to stretch my Irish from simple statements/questions.
do you know what i done with my keys?
do you know how to start the car?
these may be easier translated? |

I'd use the conditional :
do you know what to say? Bhfuil a fhios agad cad é a déarfá?
do you know how to act? Bhfuil a fhios agad cad é a dhéanfá?
&
Bhfuil a fhios agad cad é a rinn mé le m'eochracha?
Bhfuil a fhios agad cad é mar a chuirfí an carr ag gabháil?

Braitheann sé ar an gcomhthéacs. Bhí mise ag smaoineamh ar dhuine ag cur comhairle ar dhuine eile roimh dhul isteach i gcruinniú, abair. Bheadh cinnteacht éigin i gceist ansin.
Aontaím (seachas an cló canúnach) le leaganacha Lughaidh don dá nath eile. |
