Turas Siar 229 - Pádraic Ó Maolruaidh as Leitir Fhinín (R.I.P.) agus Pádraic S. Ó Murchú as an gCartúr: ag plé seanfhocla agus seanráite, sneachta vs sreacht’, ceist faoin gcapall, amharc an ghiorria, madadh vs gadhar, an focal “stáid”, an cosán dearg.

Buachaill a bhí liom agus capall caite aige ach.

A boy was with me and he had a worn-out horse but...

Thosaigh sé ag gáire nuair a tháinig sé, tháinig sé ina suí ag iarraidh, níor imigh mé gufaí ann.

He started laughing when he came, he came and sat down asking, I didn't go away there..

agus

and.

Ah, scaoil amach, adeir sé, ag an madadh, adeir sé.

Ah, let it out, he says, at the dog, he says...

Áh ní ligfidh, adeirimse.

Ah, I won't allow it, I say...

Níor mhaith liom é a ligean amach ag an mada.

I wouldn't like to let it out to the dog.

Mar stróicfidh sé ar an bpointe é.

Because he will tear it immediately.

Sea

Yes.

Ach

But.

Coinnigh greim air.

Hold on to it..

Coinneoidh mise greim ar an madadh, adeirimse, agus scaoilfidh tú uait ag iarraidh iad, ní maith liom é a mharú, adeirimse, ach 'Sin é an chaoi ar tharla sé.

I will hold on to the dog, I say, and you will let go when you want them, I do not like to kill it, I say, but that's how it happened.

Sea

Yes.

Scaoil muid uainn ar Gerry ar chor ar bith agus chluinfidh muid greim ar an madadh agus

We let go of Gerry altogether and we will hear a grip on the dog and.

Dimigh sé leis ag iarraidh ina bhealach féin aici le pé ar bith cé a ndeachaigh sé.

He went off trying in his own way with her with whoever he went with.

Agus céard é an céard í an ghreim is fearr le fáil ar ghiorria?

And what is the best grip to get on a hare?
