Dia
's Muire dhuit, a Dhonncha. Tá mé go maith (or,
hiontach, or dona, or various other adjectives) . Cén chaoi
a bhfuil tusa?
Donncha:
Tá
mise go hiontach. Nach bhfuil an áit anseo go deas
(or Hálainn, or haoibhinn, etc.)?
Cáit:
Tá,
muise (or cinnte, or repeat adjective, and probably a few other
possibilities too ), ach tá an bháisteach go dona (or adjective
of choice)*.

Donncha:
A Cháit,
an bhfeiceann tú mo scian phóca áit ar bith? Níl a fhios
agam cá bhfuil sí ar chor ar bith.
Cáit:
Tá rudaí
go leor ansiúd ar an talamh. B'fhéidir go bhfuil *an*
or *do* (I taught these in class before doing the exercise) scian
phóca ann (or ansin/ansiúd).
Donncha:
Ó, tá,
feicim anois. Go raibh maith 'ad.
.
Cáit:
Tá fáilte
romhat. Slán.

III. Lettura:
Well,
there's a beautiful Gaeltacht here. There's lots of rain, and the land
is reasonably bad, but the fields and walls are lovely, and there are
fine houses and fine people, too. I see boats everywhere. Do you see the
gate and the house over there? There's a wonderful storyteller there,
and a nice woman, too. And the other little house? The priest is there.
My teacher's family are here too, but I don't know where. He says that
there's fine Irish here. There's a good college, anyway, and good teachers,
too. I'm satisfied here, are you? You're welcome here, anyway.
