I think that this is the most misused phrase in the Gaelic tongue and the Irish sensibility. It's overused and has lost meaning, unless it becomes a "sorry for your troubles" type of phrase.

The beauty of a tribe is its continuity, not the fact that one kind will never exist again but indeed that kind will always live.

Bíodh a leitheid again aríst

Scríobh an Criothanach é ag deireadh "An tOileánach", ach is é an leagan bunaidh ins an leabhar ná "Ní bheidh a liethéid aríst ann".

It's … ná beidh ár leithéidí arís ann according to the book that I'm looking at – An t-Oileánach (an Dara Clóbhualadh) :reading:

Oh probably, I don't have the book with me, I was more referring to the ordering of "ann" and "aríst", which Tomás Ó Criomhthain used.

It's interesting that he writes both "Arís" and "Aríst" in his books.

Am I right in the thinking the ordering makes the distinction between "they won't be there again" (ann aríst) and "there won't be... again" (aríst ann)...?

It's just a Munster Irish tendency to always put pronouns at the end, Pádraig Ua Maoileoin had an essay where he complained about people not remembering that order in quotes from Munster Irish books, that's why I thought of it.
