ar leith le haghaidh rud a diomprófar
special for something that will be carried
Bád anois, abair, a bheith ag iompar locht agus ag iompar taoscán, bhí difear eatarthu.
A boat now, say, having a fault and carrying bilge water, there was a difference between them.
Abair liom cén difríocht atá idir
Tell me what the difference is.
Dá mbeadh bád anois ab fhéidir a bheith ag iompar lucht móna ba í an loch.
If there were a boat now that could be carrying a load of turf, it would be the lake...
Nach mbeadh sí ag iompar loch gar ná lucht mine nó lucht plúir ba í an loch.
Wouldn’t she be carrying a lake near her rather than a load of meal or a load of flour, she was the lake...
Os cionn bord, mar a déarfá.
Above board, as you’d say..
An t-aosán a thugadh siad uaidh bheadh sé faoin gclub boird, mar a déarfá.
The little bit they took from him would be under the board club, as you might say..
Anois taoscán agus baslach ansin a thugadh siad an rud fliuch don mbád.
Now a bucket and a scoop then they would give the wet thing to the boat.
