Manners 2
 |
Gaelic is a very polite language. So polite in fact, that there is no word for 'Please'! But you can use a little phrase that is the equivalent of 'please': |
| Mas e ur toil e! | Please! (More than one person, or an older person.) |
|
| Mas e do thoil e! | Please! (Only one person, or a younger person.) |
|
You could use this in a situation such as asking for someone's name:
| Ur n-ainm, mas e ur toil e. | Your name, please. (More than one person, or an older person.) |
|
| D' ainm, mas e do thoil e. | Your name, please. (Only one person, or a younger person.) |
|
| Conversation-maker | Tactile-word |
