minus-squareta_leadran_orm@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoOh, I’ve several. Irish people love a good curse. Go mbrise an diabhal do dhá chois May the devil break your legs Go ndéana an diabhal dréimire do chnámh do dhroma May the devil make a ladder out of your spine Go n-imí an droch aimsir leat That the bad weather leaves with you Go n-ithe an cat thú is go n-ithe an diabhal an cat May the cat eat you and may the devil eat the cat And my personal favourite: Lá breá ag do chairde, dod adhlacadh May your friends have a fine day, burying you
Oh, I’ve several. Irish people love a good curse.
Go mbrise an diabhal do dhá chois May the devil break your legs
Go ndéana an diabhal dréimire do chnámh do dhroma May the devil make a ladder out of your spine
Go n-imí an droch aimsir leat That the bad weather leaves with you
Go n-ithe an cat thú is go n-ithe an diabhal an cat May the cat eat you and may the devil eat the cat
And my personal favourite: Lá breá ag do chairde, dod adhlacadh May your friends have a fine day, burying you
