in the last video we learned that we could create more and better irish language phrases by
adjusting the verbal noun we did this by dropping the ag so for example ag dul is going but
bhí orm dul abhaile means i had to go home so we're dropping the ag there to mean to go
as opposed to going in this video we're going to do something
similar but this time we're going to add le before the verbal noun and this is going to
allow us to create and understand more irish phrases
adding le generally means something is to be done or you have to do something
for example if we take the verb déan which means to make or to do the verbal noun here
is ag déanamh
but if we swap the ag for le it can mean to be done or to do for example
let's look at some more phrases now
using this rule
we ad a h there because the verbal noun there begins with i so the verbal noun would
be typically ag íoc which means paying so the le initiates a h there to be added before í
like before we add the h there before the i typically this would be ag imirt which is playing
ag imirt but then le himirt means to play as you will have seen in the sample sentence
Now since you've lasted this long i want to give you two
bonus words now or bonus adjectives let's say so here they are ar siúl which means
taking place or going on and ar fáil which means available
so let's look at some sample sentences now
so here's a list of everything we've learned in this video
today just as a summary for you i'm going to go down through them now
