Ciníochas Flashcards
There is no subject more being discussed in the mouth of the public at the moment than racism
Níl abhor ncos mó á polé i mbéal an phobail i láthair na huaire ná ciníochas
You can’t pick up any newspaper without reading reference about this
Ní féidir leat aon nuachtán a thógáil suas gan trácht a léamh ina thaobh agus ina theannta sun
There are programmes on the television frequently, explaining extra information to us on the whole topic
Bonn cláracha ar an teilifís go minic ag léiriú eolais sa bhreis dúinn ar an ábhar iomlán.
The specific extra information is handy as it gives us a chance as normal people to have our own opinions on racism
Is áisiúil an t-eolas breeze úd, mar tugann sé seans dúinn mar ghnáth-dhaoine ar dtuairimí féin a bheith againn ar chiníochas
What does racism mean? It happens when one group get an upper hand on another group
Cad is bro le ciníochas? Tarlíonn sé nuair a fhaigheann dream amháin an lámh in yachter ar dhream eile
People ár biased against certain races and it is a widespread problem
Tá daoine claonnta in aghaidh ciníocha áirithe agus is fadhb forleathan í
Of course it is spreading all over the world and no country is an exception
Dar ndóigh tá sé ag leathnú ar fud an domhain agus ní eisceacht tír ar bith
It is not a new problem, It goes back to the world wars
Ní fadhb nua atá ann, than sí siar go dtí na cog domhanda
But nowadays there is more maliciousness attached to it as a problem
Ach i láthair tá níos mó mailíse ag baint leis mar fadhb
Racism is a horrible thing as it is able to ruin people
Is rud uafásach é ciníochas mar tá sé ábalta daoine a scriosadh
Why do we have this problem? Everyone in this world has the same rights
Cén fáth go bhfuil an fadhb seo ann? Tá na cart canna ag each duine sa domhan seo.
It doesn’t matter what social class is in question nor what faith you have
Is coma can acme ate i gceist nó can creideamh atá agat
Everyone is the same and it is not right to have differentiation there
Tá gach duine mar an gcéanna agus níl sé ceart nó ceara idirmhealú a bheith ann
It’s the same story in every country
Tá an scéal canne le fáil i ngach tír
Take Germany for example, especially the south
Tóg an Ghearmáin mar shampla, go háirithe an desiceart
The place is packed with refugees that fled from Syria within the war and they settled in Germany and now they are not able to get a job, because of that they are homeless and unemployed
Tá an dit plódaithe le teifigh a theith ó Syria le linn na chogaidh agus lonnaigh siad sa Ghearmáin agus anois níl siad in ann post a fhái, agus dá bhrí sin tá siad gan dídean agus gan fostaíocht
They depend on the state and as a result the German’s detest them
Bonn siad ag braith ar an stáit agus de thoradh tá gráin ag na Gearmánaigh orthu
There was racism in South Africa for years. Even today the problem of segregation is big enough in the country
Bhí ciníochas san Aifric Theas le blianta. Fig innio tá fadhb na cinedheighilte mór go ler sa tír
But a new system came in with Nelson Mandela when he was the president of the country
Ach tháinig córas nua ann le Nelson Mandela nuire a bhí sé mar uachtarán na tíre
One is not certain that it is a solution but surely the problem will improve
Níltear cinnte gur réitigh é ach cinnte tiocfaidh feadbhas ar an bhfadhb
What about Ireland? We had a campaign a couple of years ago
Cad faoi Éire? Bhí feachtas againn cúpla bliain ó shin.
Some of the workers of the Supermarket Dunnes on strike as a result of the products that were coming in
Chuaigh cuid de na hoibrithe as ollmhargadh DUnnes ar stailc de thoradh na n-earraí a raibh ag teacht isteach
They knew that the workers in South Africa were suppressed and that they were earning inferior pay
Bhí a fhios act go raibh na hoibrithe san Aific Theas faoi chos agus go raibh pá sfuarach á thuilleamh acu
The strike continued until they put a stop to buying products from that country
Lean an stailc ar aghaidh go dtí gur stop siad ag ceannach na n-earraí ón tír sin.
There are a lot of new races filtering into Ireland
Bonn go leor ciníocha nua ag sní isteach go héirinn
Daily, in every small town in Ireland you see them in their groups going into the city and the hardship that they suffer is horrible
Go laethiúil i nacho baile beat in Éirinn feictear iad ina sluaite ag tuilleadh isteach sa chathair agus is uafásach an cruatan a fhulaingíonn siad
Not only are many homeless, but they are unemployed too
Ní amháin go bhfuil roinnt maith gan dídean ach tá siad gan obair freisin
frequently they have to steal or go begging to survive
Is minic a bhfuil orthu goid nó dul ag iarraidh déirce chun maireachtáil
The courts are full of them, they are put in prison and then the problem lies on the state to support them
Tá na cúirteanna plódaithe leo. Cuirtear iad i bpriosún agus ansen luíonn an fhadhb leis an stat chun iad a thacú
We have passed new laws at the moment giving those specific people rights to get financial aid from the state
Tá dlíthe nua rite againn faoi láthair ag tabhairt cearta do na daoine siúd cúnamh airgeadaid a fháil ón stáit
I think that this is right because we should be charitable
Ceapaim go bhfuil seo near toisc gur cheart dúinn a bheith catharnach
They are pitiful people for the most part and it is our duty to help them
Is daoine truamhéalacha iad an fórmhór. Tá sé mar dualgas orainne tecah i gcabhair orthu
And it is Our duty to welcome them, as we were welcomed as immigrants over the years going to America
agus tá sé mar dhualgas draine fáilte a chur rompu, faoi mar a fháiltíodh romhainne féin mar imircigh thar na blianta ag dul go dtí na stáit aontaithe
What about the traveller community? Are they a problem?
Card faoin lucht siúil? An fadhb iad?
There are widespread opinion in this country that they are a dirty, disrespectful group, and that they ruin any area in which they settle
Tá tuairimí forleithne ann sa tír sec gur dream salach, droch-bhéasach iad, agus go milleann siad an cheantar ina bhíonn siad ag lonnú
There are people that wouldn’t buy a house if the traveller community was right beside to
Tá daoine ann nach gceannóidis teach dá mbeadh an lucht súil in aice láimhe
It is said that they reduce the value of the houses near to them
Deirtear go n-íslíonn siad lunch na tithe gar dóibh
But they are a friendly race but as with any other race there are exceptions
Ach is cine cairdiúil iad ach mar le haon chine eile tá eisceachtaí le fáil
If they marry and they are trying to find a hotel for the wedding, it is hard for them to get a hotel
Má phósann siad agus tá óstán á lorg acu, tá sé deacair dóibh ceann a fháil
Unfortunately it is a problem that is increasing daily
Faorair is fadbh í atá ag méadú go laethúil
Some of the traveller community want to be mixed with settled people and we will have to put up with our biased opinion even if we think its a problem
Rá cuid den lucht súil ag iarraidh a bheith meascaithe le daoine lonnaithe agus beidh oraunn cur suas lenár dtuairimí claonnta fiú má cheapaimid gur fadhb í.
It is my opinion that there are a lot of arguments going with topics like this
Is é mo thuairim go bhfuil a lan argóintí éagsúla ag dul le h-ábhar mar seo
but if people who are accountable for them come together to discuss the certain difficulties sincerely
ach má thagann gach duine atá freagrach leo le chéile chun na deacrachtaí úd a phlé go dúthrachtach
and without the biased and damned mind that is ruining everything today
agus gan an aigne chlaonta agus damanta atá ag milleadh gach ní inniu
It is certain that the day with come, hopefully, when we see the end of racism/
Is connote go dtiocfadh an lá, le cúnamh Dé, nuair a fheicfimis deireadh le ciníochas
