I probably posted this before, but since it is a grammatical one, I hope it will give all pleasure:
Chonaic fear gan súile crann le húlla.
Níor thóg sé úlla,
agus níor fhág sé úlla ann.
Conas? |

Theip orm freagra an tomhais a aimsiú ach feicim gur tháinig athrú ar bhallraíocht an fhóraim seo le bliata anuas. Is fada ó bhí Liz, Dennis, nó Aibigéal anseo. Tusa, a Aonghuis, ár gceann feadhna anois. 11055 teachtaireacht. Do-chreidte. |

Tá Dennis ag treabhadh leis sa Bhlagthacht. http://nimill.blogspot.com Nod is ea an "since it is a grammatical one". Ní fheidhmeoidh an tomhais seo as Béarla, dála an scéil. |

Ní hea.
Tá an dara leath den fhreagra gaolta leis an gcéad leath. |

There were two apples, and he took one?

Cén sórt úll(a?) atá i gceist agat, a Aonghus? Cox's Pippins, Granny Smiths, Golden delicious atá iontu nó caidé? |

Ah, tá dhá úll ann -- an ceann a thóg sé agus an ceann eile a fhág sé ann. Ceart? Bhí sé ag Driftwood814.

Conas?
There were more than 6 apples there! Simples! Simplíocha (as a certain meerkat would say). |

I'm confused now...why would it be "he didn't leave 6 apples there" and not "he didn't leave apples there"? What makes sé = "6" instead of "he"?

Tá an ceart ag Driftwood.
Fear ar aon súil (gan súile)
Dhá úll ar an gcrann (úlla)
Thóg sé ceann amháin: (níor thóg sé úlla)
D'fhág sé ceann amháin (níor fhág sé úlla) |

Maith go leor, a Aonghus. Cad é an duais a bhaineas-sa amach air sin? Do chuas isteach sa chomórtas, agus do bhuas ar na daoine go léir, agus tá m'ainm in áirde leis anois, mar sin ba chóir duais mhaith a bheith agam, nách ea? |

And what is the flaw in this? úlla is SINGULAR in the beloved Connemara - pl: úllaí - which makes the thing confusing as some of those lines could be singular. |

I try not to mix dialects. Ach is ag Driftwood atá an craobh, ní agatsa! quote:níor fhág sé úlla ann - he didn't leave 6 apples there That would have to be "Níor fhág sé sé úlla ann". |

Níl a bhuíochas oraibh.
De réir an gnáis, tá an dualgas ar Driftwood tomhas a sholáthar dúinn anois! |

GRMA, a Aonguis. Truthfully, I care nothing about winning. The fact that I understood the Irish well enough to deduce the correct answer makes me ecstatic!
