dia dhuit a chara

I mhaith liom eolas a Gaeltacht Cursaí do dhaoine fásta i samhradh do sheachtain ar bheirt le do thoil.

If I messed the irish up could someone correct me .

I was wondering if anybody had information on adult courses in the gaeltacht during the summer for a week or two. (where i could go down and live as gaeilge for the two weeks) . I really dont mind the dialect any i have seen are for school kids .

Dia 's Muire dhuit féin.

There are two main centres for adults.
One in Donegal -
Oideas Gael

and one in Conamara -
An Acadamh

I speak Connemara Irish, and my input will often reflect that.
I will do an mp3 file on request for short translations.

In response to the request for correction:

Ba mhaith liom eolas faoi chursaí do dhaoine fásta sa Ghaeltacht† sa samhradh ar feadh seachtaine nó (a) dhó, le do thoil.

Please check my corrections and let me know if I've missed anything or if I've overdone it (as sometimes happens).


†In Connemara, this would be sa nGaeltacht.
