Tá tú féin i do chónaí i ndriseachán.

You yourself are living in a thicket.

Tá deisiúchán ar an léarscáil, tá a fhios agam, ach tá a lán daoine nach bhfuil a fhios acu cén áit a bhfuil sé.

There is a repair on the map, I know, but there are a lot of people who don't know where it is.

Bhoil, tá baile beag, níl ann ach cúpla teach, níl ann, níl ann ach trí theach an Ioriseach ann anois leis an méid sin é, sin é a bhfuil ann.

Well, there’s a small village, there’s only a couple of houses, there’s only, there’s only three houses, the O’Hara’s house is there now, that’s all, that’s all that’s there..

Tá sé ar an mbóthar ón ón bháithí siar go dté tú go Gleann Tréig, mar adeir an ceann eile siar thríd an gCloch Bhreac.

It is on the road from the ford west until you go to Glen Tréig, as the other one says, west through the Speckled Stone.

'Sea.

Yes.. .

Agus tá deireadh seachtaine ann idir idir an Chloch Bhreac agus Gleann tSlé.

And there is a weekend between Cloch Bhreac and Gleann tSlé..

Bhoil, bhí mé i do theach féin, bail ó Dhia ort, is teach álainn atá ann ag breathnú díreach ag Bun Loch Measca, nach ea?

Well, I was in your own house, God bless you, it’s a beautiful house looking right at the foot of Lough Mask, isn’t it?

Go díreach.

Directly.. .

Deireadh Loch Measc i measc na gcnoc i measc na gcnoc.

The end of Lough Mask among the hills among the hills.. .

Chuir meascadh orm.

It confused me.. .

'Sea, 'sea, in aice le Corr na Móna, níl sé rófhada uaidh ar chor ar bith.

Yes, yes, near Corr na Móna, it’s not too far from it at all..

Bhoil tá tá Corr na Móna agus Nim an fhad céanna uaidh beagnach chúig mhíle go leith nó sé mhíle is dóigh.

Well yes, yes, Corr na Móna and Nim are about the same distance from it, nearly five and a half miles or six miles, I suppose.

Ceantar suaimhneach ní bhíonn mórán daoiní ag troid sa cheantar sin.

A peaceful area, not many people fight in that area.

Caithfidh

You must. .

Ní bhíonn áit an-suaimhneach é.

It is not a very peaceful place.
