Thug mé ardú pá inniu (10 %) do m’oibrí ar Rainse Mhic Mhaolaín má a bheadh sé labhairt liom achen lá i nGaeilge. Beidh sé an suimiúil a fheiceáil má a bheidh níos mó Gaeilge ar McMullen Rainse go luath. Cad is bhur mbarúil faoin scéim seo? An bhfuil cothróm na Féinne ann? Tá sceitimini air mar sin de.
(I gave a 10% pay increase today to my worker on McMullen Ranch if he will speak with me each day in Irish. It will be interesting to see if there will be more Irish (heard) on McMullen ranch soon. What is your opinion about this scheme? Is this fair? He’s excited about it)

Níl fhíos ar bith agam a chara. Cad deireann an dlí fostaíochta i dTexas? B’fheidir mar deireann tú go cineál bonus atá sé, in áit bpá? Nó pá fá choinne obair eile (an caint)?
Nach mbeidh d’oibrithe eile mí-shásta? Agus, an bhfuil tú sásta seo a dheanamh do achan oibrí eile má bhíonn siad sásta labhairt leat?
Scéal suimiúil atá sé. An bhfuil mórán Gaeilge aige? An raibh sé ag caint Gaeilge leat i roimhe seo?

Bhuel Crotach:
Go raibh mile maith agat as do chomhairle. Níl fadhb ar bith leis an dlí fostaíochta i dTexas. Bhí mé i mo dhlíodóir tamall ar fad. D’éiri mé as an dlí cúpla bhliain ó shin. “Danny” is ainm dó, agus táim ag smaoineamh a thabhairt “Dónall” air. Is é an oibrí lánaimseartha amháin ar an rainse. Creidim go mbeidh spraoi againn nuair a rachaid muid eallach a chennach, dhíol, srl, agus ba mhaith linn labhairt gan duine eile a thuiscint. (ag plé ar an praghas, srl). Ar a laghad, thiocadh liom an nGaeilge a chluinstin achen lá ar an rainse. Agus, tá sé ceart go leor liom a íoc í a chloisteáíl.
Well Crotach:
Thanks a million for the advice. There’s no problem with the employment laws here in Texas. I was a lawyer for quite a while. I retired from law a couple of years ago. Danny is the name of the guy, and I’m thinking about calling him “Dónall”. He’s the only full-time worker on the ranch. I think we’ll have fun when we go to buy or sell cattle, etc. and we’d like to speak without anyone else understanding us. (discussing price, etc). At least , I could hear Irish on my ranch every day. And, it’s okay with me to pay to hear it.
Ps. WARNING TO LEARNERS Thought it would be fun to put something in Irish and English so it could be studied. I am a basic intermediate speaker (studying little over 4 years) Hopefully it’s not too too rife with errors.
Bhuel, bhíodh deontais á n-íoc le gásúir Gaeltachta a raibh an teanga ar a dtoil acu… Mar sin, cén dochar in ardú páí a thabhairt d’oibrí a bhfuil scileanna ar leith (mar shampla, cumas sa nGaeilge) aige? D’fhéadfá breathnú air sin mar sheirbhís bhreise, nach bhféadfá? 🙂 Mara miste leat é a rá, cén chaoi ar casadh fear le Gaeilge ort i dTexas an chéad uair?
