Nathanna Cainte Flashcards
Alas
Faraor géar
Alternative
An dara suí sa bhuaile
Eternal problem
Fadhb shíoraí
Apparently
De réir cosúlachta
As I have already said
Mar a dúirt mé ó chianaibh
Better to be sure than sorry
Is fearr deimhin ná díomá
Cause of contention
Ina chnámh spairne
Every little helps
Bailíonn brobh beart
For one reason or another
Ar chúis amháin nó ar chúis eile
From time immemorial
Le cuimhne na seacht sinsear
Im tired of listening to
Táim bodhar ag éisteacht le
In any shape or form
Dubh, bán ná riabhach
In brief
Go hachomair
It cant be denied
Ní féidir a shéanadh
It was predicted
Bhíothas ag tuar
It is predicted
Táthar ag tuar
Lately
Ar na mallaibh
Lesser of two evils
Rogha an dá dhíoga
More often than ever
Níos minice ná riamh
Not a day goes by that one dosen’t hear or read about it
Níl lá dá dteann thart nach gcloistear nó nach léitear faoi
The country is in a mess
Tá an tír ina cíor thuathail
The problem must be tackled
Caithfear dul i ngleic leis an bhfadhb
The sooner the better
Dá luaithe is ea is fearr é
The thing that worries me is
An rud atá ag dó na geirbe agam ná
There are many problems
Is iomaí fadhb atá ann
Theres strength in unity
Ní neart go cur le chéile
Things happen by degrees
I ndiaidh a chéile a thógtar na caisleáin
Things were neglected
Ligeadh na maidí le sruth
Im sick of it
Táim dubh dóite de
Without further delay
Gan a thuilleadh moille
What a timely question
Nach tráthúil an cheist í
Without hesitation
Gan fuacht gan faitíos
World-changing event
Eachtra dhomhan-athraitheach
Everything is a mess
Tá an phraiseach ar fud na mias
It’s not impossible
Ní fál go haer é
Nagging me
Ag tathant orm
Exciting
Corraitheach
Booked
Curtha in áirithe
Apart from
Cé is moite de
Most vulnerable
Is leochaillí
Weak and vulnerable
Lag leochaileach
Penniless
Gan pingin rua ag
People crowded on top of each other
Daoine plódaithe srón ar thón
Problem of alcoholism
Fadhb an alcólachais
