Sreang

String. .

Dhá réir sin bheadh an srungán, bheadh sé níos solúbtha, níos

So then the rope, it would be more flexible, more.

Réir sin bheadh an sreangán.

Therefore the string would be...

Bhuel bheadh sé níos thiocfadh leat b'fhéidir.

Well, it would be more you might be able to..

Ranganna fidil abraíodh siad corruair.

Fiddle classes they used to say occasionally..

Óh muise sreanganna fidil.

Oh well, fiddle strings... .

Ranganna fidile

Fiddle classes. .

'Sea chun chun

Yes indeed. .

Agus tugann sé sreangán fidil orthu chomh maith.

And he calls them fiddle strings as well.

An dtugann siad an dara rud orthu?

Do they call it the second thing?

Beagán beagán.

Little by little... .

And they give you a fiddle string if there were a string now or a string to be tightened.

Agus déarfadh siad dhá mbeadh siad ag crochadh crochadh Mhaighir anois ná ag rith ar rud éigin mar sin.

And they would say they would rather be hanging at Magher’s hanging now than running at something like that..

Deir siad tá sé chomh

They say it is so.
