Dia duit agus fáilte ar ais, in this video we're going to look at five words
in Irish that might accurately reflect Donald Trump
so these words kind of suit his position and his personality let's say, but before
we start with that I want to give a special mention to two really wonderful
books that I'm a huge fan of and I have them just here beside me, the first
one is Motherfoclóir by Darach Ó Séaghdha and that's the first one of his batch that I
read and then his follow-up book is Craic Baby, but a couple years ago
before I started this channel I came across Motherfoclóir and I found it
an absolutely wonderful read, it's brilliant if you're at a beginner
phase an intermediate phase or if you're fluent I don't think it matters
what stage you're at with Irish these books can give you a great insight into
the language so it explains poetic words, they explain about the
history of the language, names and a bit about Darach's journey and his
relationship with his father and his daughter as well, so if you
have even a passing interest in the Irish language and you like my style of
videos you're going to absolutely love these books, they were a great source of
encouragement and inspiration for me a few years ago when I started this
channel, so I'll leave Amazon links in the description if you wish to buy them you
can follow the links and I might get a small commission then.
So back to this video on five words to describe Donald Trump, we have to start with his
title which is president so the Irish for president is
Uachtarán and Uachtarán Mheiriceá is the president of America
Our next word then is controversial, I think it's fair to say
that Donald Trump can be controversial occasionally so the Irish for
controversial is Conspóideach and fear Conspóideach is a controversial man
which is what you could use to describe Donald
Trump - fear Conspóideach.
As you might know Donald Trump is a fan of building things
whether it's his Trump Towers or the famous wall on the southern border with
Mexico, so the Irish for builder is Tógálaí, and you could say
Is tógálaí é = he is a builder
another word to describe President Trump could be unpredictable so the Irish for
unpredictable is taghdach
Tá sé taghdach ó am go ham = he is unpredictable from time to time
Our next word to describe President Trump is powerful which is what the
President of the United States of America is- a very powerful individual so
the Irish for powerful is Cumhachtach, and just
power on its own then is Cumhacht so this phrase/sentence might
be a handy one to describe the president of America whether it's Donald Trump or
whoever it is- Tá an chumhacht aige = he has a lot of power
So if you enjoyed this video please give it a thumbs up and don't
forget to check out the links for the books by Darach that I've mentioned in
the start of the video, and thanks again for watching and I'll be back very soon
