Hello all,
Looking for the Gaelic for the following:
"Take back the night" (take back with the meaning of seize back)
Thanks!

I believe in Irish it's "Glac an oiche ar ais", but I'm not sure of the Scots Gaelic - I suspect it' svery similar.

Gaelic: "
Gabh/Glac an oidhche air ais" maybe...
Gabh - Take
Glac - Seize

Yep - I think that's it! Only difference in the two is how "night" is spelt.
Manx has "Glack yn oie er-ash"
Thanks,

Mura toil leibh iarrtais eadar-theangachaidh, na cuiribh feagairt sam bith ann, ach b' fhèarr leam ma chùmas sinn a bhith modhail. Chruthaich mi am fòram ùr seo 's mar sin nach bi feum agaibh air a leughadh agus is urrainn dhuibh seachad a leigeil leis ma thogras sibh
Gluasaidh mi na iarrtais eadar-theangachaidh bho fòram sam bith eile nuair a thachras mi orra.

Chan eil dragh agam air cuideigin ag iarraidh eadar-theangachadh ann an da-rìreabh, ach tha e a' cheart cho math dha "thalla is càc" a chur air an abairt Beurla sin, a chionn 's nach eil mòran chiall air co-dhiù. Le abairt do-thuigsinn mar sin, bha mi an dùil gur e "spammer" a bh' ann.

'S dòcha gun robh mi ro bhras ann a bhith a' cur freagairt mar sin air ais thuige. Dh'fhaoidte gun robh e ag iarraidh eadar-theangachadh ann an da-rìreabh. Mar sin dheth, mo leisgeulan.
I was probably too hasty in giving the answer I did back to him. Perhaps he was seriously looking for a tr*nsl*t**n for that phrase. Therefore, my apologies.
