goirt salty, bitter [metaphorically]
searbh bitter [taste]
Chaoin sí go goirt. She wept bitterly,
arán goirt hard won bread
Is goirt a shaothraigh sé é. It cost him dear. “It was bitter that he earned it”
Ba ghoirt an lá dúinn é. It was a bitter day for us.

Seanfhocal

D’ordaigh Dia fearg, ach níor ordaigh sé a coinneáil. God commanded anger, but he did not command that it be kept.

Cluichí Oilimpeacha

<!–

Ní bhreathnaigh mé na Cluichí go minic.
Ní ach píosaí ar an gclár nuachta
an iomarca nuacht pholaitiúil gach lá
Ní fuath liom na cluichí.
Bhí iomarca rudaí eile i mo shaol
Mo phost
Bhí mé ag obair cupla tráthnónta
An tinneas ar mo bhean chéile.
Rinne mo mhic rudaí craiceáilte éagsúla
Bhí mé ag Aonach Éireannach ar Oileán Harriet Dé Sathairn amháin
Bhí mé ar thuras go dtí Northfield na laethanta deiridh na Cluichí.
Bhí mé an-ghnóthach agus gan teilifís ansin.
teacht le chéile reunion
naoi déag 19
seachtó a dó 72
daichead a cúig 45
Bhain mé céim amach I graduated
Coláiste college
