Can anyone translate "Strength" into Scottish Gael

Post by KT »

I'm wondering if someone out there can translate the word "strength" into Scottish Gaelic/Gàidhlig.

Thank you so very much!

Strenght in Scottish Gaelic

Post by KT »

Oh, thank you so much! I really, really appreciate this translation.

I am going to get a tattoo and would like that word integrated into the piece. (My heritage is Scottish/German :)

Thank you, again.

Làidir means strong, not strength. Strength is "neart" in Scottish Gaelic.

I don't understand the meaning of "Over, fork over", can you explain me?

Beannachd leibh, a chàirdean.

Doesn't it mean like "over, hand it over" ?

I think so. But it has to do with pitchforks as well. Apparently my ancestors once fought with pitchforks, so "over, fork over" is the family motto.
