Is there a rule somewhere about whether or not the titles of songs, books, etc., should be capitalized in formal writing in Irish? I've found one site (https://rateyourmusic.com/wiki/RYM:Non-English+Latin+language+capitalization#Irish) that claims "common words" aren't to be capitalized; I find it deeply funny that the source of this rule is supposed to be "An Caighdeán Oifigiúil". (If they were following their own rule shouldn't it be "An caighdeán oifigiúil"?)

Most of the English-language media I see uses English-style title capitalization; and most of the titles of works I've looked at look like they are too. But maybe that's Bearlish.

Any ideas (with sources)?

Hi everyone, I'm looking for advice, how to write "your will" and "my will" in the context of "your will, not mine, be done" from the bible. I don't want the whole saying, just "your will" and "my will" translations that could stand alone as... nouns/phrases, i guess, and still make sense in this context. Thank you for your time.

Hi all. I have a children's book I self published in 2022 and I'm getting it republished as my second " properly published" book with my publishers in England. Ot will now not just be published in English but also with the Irish alongside it in order to promote the Irish language. I need someone to help edit the translation and so on if the Irish as I used an app to help me. I'm not a fully fluent Irish Speaker.

Thanks very much.

Does anyone know the Gaelic word for “Bumblebee”. Google has not been very helpful.

Hello !

My mom is preparing her classical singing exam, she's preparing a full concert about travelling through Europe and singing songs from each country.

She found a piece in Gaelic, but can't find the phonetic pronunciation of the lyrics

"Ochón, dá mbeadh sé mo threo
lem' thabhairt ón ngéibheann chrua,
do gheobhadh searc mo chléibh go deo,
is stór nach saor le lua.

Ní h-eagal duit a ghlébhean,
a dhalta ghrinn is a stóir.
Ní fada bhéir i ngéibheann
gan charaid teacht do chomhair."

If anyone here is able to help write a phonetic reading of the lyrics that would be great, we can find the translation online but we are not sure about the pronunciation and we want to do this right

(please ingnore spelling mistakes, non-native english speaker)
Thanks in advance !!

My grandfather passed away about a month ago, and his funeral is tomorrow. He was from Ireland and moved to our current home, and as such I wrote a final letter in a mix of English and Irish. But that’s not why I’m here.

There’s a phrase I included in that letter, a promise I made to him and myself, and want it to be my first tattoo on my forearm. The phrase is ‘My pride is my sun’ and the translation i got from the 5 different translators i ran it through was ‘Is é mo bródh mo ghrian’

Is that accurate and, if not, what is the accurate translation. Thank you for reading and helping!

This is a draft of a tattoo I'm designing for a client. I'm interested in and would appreciate a critique of this phrase. The text is meant to read as "What else ought there be?" Thanks.

Hello & Dia dhuit!

So my mother and I want to get the Hennessy Family Motto in Gaelic.

My mom wants: It's never to hot for coffee

Me: It's never to cold for ice cream

google gave me this

níl sé chomh te don chaife

níl sé fuar riamh don uachtar reoite

Dia dhaoibh,

I am trying to translate seanfhocail from the book Seanfhocail na Mumhan but am struggling with meanings and context that the seanfhocail would be used in.

Mar shampla: "Os a chomhair is fusa bréag a chur ar dhuine"

Can anybody offer translation and possible context to use this one?

Hello! Trying to get a Gaelic tattoo for KINGS. Every translator I found says ríthe.

Can anyone confirm or deny this?

Thanks in advance!
