“mo chuid” or “mo choda” after verbal noun

[Rosie]

Hi. I’m wondering if anyone can help me the answer to this:

“My shoes” = “mo chuid bróg”… but would “tying my shoes” = “ag ceangal mo [color=purple]choda[/color] bróg”? (since the object [“my share”] of a verbal noun phrase [“tying”] must be in genitive case? It seems like it, but I can’t seem to dig up any answers online. Thank you! 😊

You don’t use genitive of cuid if followed by another noun.

ag ceangal mo chuid bróg
dáth mo chuid bróg
ar feadh mo chuid bróg
etc.

This is VERY helpful! Thank you!
