A couple translating questions.

[Murchadh]

I was wondering how to say moonflowers/moonlilies in singular and plural. Flowers that grow in the moonlight, in other words. Just something I made up.

Lilidh ré? blath gealach?

I’m not sure how portmanteau’s behave in Gaelic, but it can be one word or two. : )

Bláthanna/Lilí na Gealaighe (‘gealaí’ in CO orthography) is a literal translation.

[Murchadh]

I was wondering… iníon rí means “princess” does it not? Is it more specifically “daughter of a king”? If so, what would daughter of a queen, be?

Inghean Bhanríoghna/Iníon Bhanríona

Banphrionnsa or Banfhlaith = princess
