Anois chas muid an píosa sin Seán agus a bás ar an bParlaimint cúpla seachtain ó shin roimhe dhom a dhul ar saoire agus bhí mé ag cur tuairisc an raibh duine ar bith a raibh eolas acu ar an mbean a dúirt é Bríd.

Now we turned that piece Seán and his death on the Parliament a couple of weeks ago before I went on holiday and I was inquiring if there was anyone who knew the woman who said it Bríd.

Bhuel, Mhic Fhionnghaile, shíl mise an sloinne a bhí uirthi ach eh beidh 'fhios a'inn níos fearr ar ball beag mar tá bean liom ar an bhfón anois a raibh beagán aithne aici ar Bhríd. Eh sin í Máire Uí Chaoimh. Do chéad fáilte, a Mháire.

Well, MacGinley, I thought that was her surname but eh we'll know better in a little while as there's a woman with me on the phone now who knew Bríd a little. Eh that's Máire Uí Chaoimh. You're very welcome, Máire.

Go raibh míle maith agat. An an sloinne i dtosach shíl mise gur Mhic Fhionnghaile a bhí uirthi ach ní shin é. Ní shin é an chaoi a bhfuaimnítear ná ní shin é an chaoi a litrítear thart faoi Acaill é.

Thank you very much. At first, I thought her surname was Mhic Fhionnghaile but that's not it. That's not how it's pronounced nor is it how it's spelled around Achill.
