Turas Siar 186 - Pádraic Ó Maolruaidh as Leitir Fhinín agus Pádraic S. Ó Murchú as an gCartúr ar an aer le Máirtín Mac Donnchadha. Pléann siad an cnádán vs an cnúdán, ainmneacha a thugtar ar ainmhithe, bia a thugtar do na hainmhithe.

Anois bhí Séamas Ó hÉanacháin as an mBaile Gaelach ag caint liom cúpla seachtain ó shin i dtaobh focla Gaeilge a bhí fanta sa mBéarla thart ar a cheantar féin ansin an taobh sin de dheisceart Mhaigh Eo agus d'fhiafraigh sé dhíom ar chuala mé riamh caint ar chrádán bhoil: 'Sén 'sí an cheist a bhí orm ná aige orm ná go raibh ráiteas thart orthu féin adeir sé H Wood Stict like an crádán bhoil tá beirt fhear liom anois a chonaic neart crádáin agus a bhfuil a fhios acu cén fáth a ngreamóidís do dhuine 'Sin iad Pádraic Ó Murchú agus Pádraic Ó Maolruaidh cén chaoi a bhfuil sibh, a fheara?

I have two men with me now who have seen plenty of crádáin and who know why they would stick to a person. They are Pádraic Ó Murchú and Pádraic Ó Maolruaidh. How are you, lads?

Go maith a Mháirtín go leor a Mháirtín.

Tris Ní thabharfainn aon ghradam nó a leithéidí sin.

Sad, I wouldn't give any award or anything like that..

Ach cá dá a fhásann futa talamh a d'fhás siad sa múinéir?

But where do potatoes grow in the ground that they grew in the meadow?
