Help me? A writer in need

[IllegalStopSign]

Hello. I need a little hlep with a few things.

I need to know how to say these sentences in Scottish Gaelic;

See? See? I told you she was funny.

So you did, child.

Can anyone help me on this? Thanks in advance and sorry if it's an inconvenience. ):

eilidh? cò tha seo?


i'd say something like;

"Ga fhaicinn? Ga fhaicinn? Thuirt mi gun robh i èibhinn!

'S tu a thuirt, 'ille."

thank you so much!

[neoni]

one thing though, "'ille" is masculine. if it's being directed to a girl i'm not positive what they'd say

Oh it's fine, it was directed at a boy, anyhow.

nae problem ma thà

[Coinneach Cìr]

'S tu a thuirt, 'ille."

You've got the wrong verb there, thuirt is said not did!
Go with 'S tu a rinn, 'ille.

[IllegalStopSign]

'S tu a thuirt, 'ille."

You've got the wrong verb there, thuirt is said not did!
Go with 'S tu a rinn, 'ille.

Thank you!

[neoni]

bha mise a' smaoineachadh "'s tu a thuirt (gun robh i èibhinn)"

[Coinneach Cìr]

Thank you!

No worries

bha mise a' smaoineachadh "'s tu a thuirt (gun robh i èibhinn)"

Tha sin ceart gu leòr.

I would use a bhalaich instead of 'ille as balach usually refers to younger boys than gille does, plus I've heard many Gaels use it, I've never heard 'ille used in this context.

[Níall Beag]

'S tu a thuirt, 'ille."

Aye, but yisin "did" as ae placeholder for ony auld verb is well English and ane owerliteral tr*nsl*t**n, eh no?

[An Gobaire]

I must say, I don't think "ga fhaicinn? ga fhaicinn?" iis how one would express "see? See?" in this context. But it depends on whether the "see" is short for "Did you see that?" or "Can you see that?"

In this context, "see" could mean "Do you believe me now?"

Anyway, what about tr*nsl*t*ng it without the question mark...

"Seall sin!"

[Stìophan]

I'm with An Gobaire here!

I would say:

Seall, seall, thuirt mi gun robh i èibhinn,

'S tu a thuirt, a bhalaich

[Seonaidh]

Well, "Seall, seall" is probably preferable to "Faic, faic"...

And a bit shorter than, e.g., "Seallaidh tu, seallaidh tu"...
