Turas Siar 393 - Pádhraic S. Ó Murchú as an gCartúr agus Máirtín Mac Donnchadha, RnaG: an chaoi a gcuirtí airgead abhaile san am fadó.

Ach an bhfuil tú, an bhfuil tú ag tabhairt le fios go mb'fhéidir go raibh dream a chuaigh in áiteacha eile, go raibh siad níos níos gnaíúla, níos fairsinge faoin airgead?

But are you, are you suggesting that maybe there were people who went to other places, that they were more sociable, more generous with money?

Níos fairsinge faoin airgead.

More broadly about the money..

Ara, bhí an dream a fuair go hAlbain agus go Sasana nach mba in é an t-airgead a thóg an tír agus a chuir an tír choinnigh an tír, choinnigh an t-ocras dóbhtha.

Ah, the crowd who went to Scotland and to England, wasn’t it the money that built the country and kept the country, kept the hunger from them...

Bhí siad sin in ann a theacht agus imeacht ach an té a fuair go Meiriceá a chaithfí a bheith ag brath air go gcuirfeadh sé uaidh é.

The one who was going to England and to America was coming home more regularly.

Bhí sé ag tíocht thríd, bhíodh sé ag tíocht, bhí sé ag tíocht is ag imeacht.

He was coming through, he used to be coming, he was coming and going...

Beatha

Life.

Bhí

Was.

Bhí seisean in ann an t-airgead.

He was able to [get] the money.

Bhí sé ar an gcaoi eile chomh maith.

It was the other way as well.

Bhí sé ag teacht abhaile.

He was coming home.

Agus más ceann den chlann a bhíonn

And if it is one of the family.

Seans maith go gcaithfeadh sé.

There's a good chance he would have to...
