scoil agus an bhfuil níos mó nó níos lú teaghlaigh ann anois a Mháire?
school and are there more or fewer families now, Máire?
Tá a fhios agam go bhfuil na teaghlaigh iontu féin níos mó, tá sé sin fíor i chuile áit, níl ach beirt ghasúr sa teach a mbíodh ochtar agus deichniúr ann ach an bhfuil baint aige sin leis nó díreach nach bhfuil na teaghlaigh ann.
