Dia dhuit,
I would like to know, as a reflex expression, how to say "That's nice to hear!" or "I'm very glad to hear that!", could someone help?







Go raibh maith agat agus slán,
Máta

That's nice to hear! = Tá sé deas sin a chluinstean ; is deas sin a chluinstean.

I'm very glad to hear that! = Tá áthas orm sin a chluinstean.


In parts of Munster and of Connachta you'll hear "a chloisteáil" instead of "a chluinstean".
