Hmm.
I was corrected above for using
Maithfidh mé thú which was wrong
because the direct object of "maith" is the deed to be forgiven- not the wrongdoer.
And I'd think the correction was correct
"Rud a mhaitheamh do dhuine" This verb has two arguments: the thing to be forgiven (rud) and the the person to be forgiven (do dhuine), always with do, acc. to dictionary.
So (in future perfect tense):
Beidh X maite. - X (the deed) will be forgiven.
Beidh maite do Y. - Y (the wrongdoer) will be forgiven
Beidh X maite do Y. - Y (the wrongdoer) will be forgiven for X (his deed).
I'd assume, X can't be "tú", Y can't be a deed.
Beidh mo pheacaí maite dom. = I will be forgiven for my sins.
Perhaps a sentence without an ouvert subject as
Beidh maite duit. might be regarded impossible* (though possible with other verbs at least in other dialects), then I'd think it should be:
Beidh sé maite duit.* ) I could find one example without subject:
' Agus anois , a Airt , a lao dhil , nach bhfuil maite dom ? ' (Dracula, transl. by Seán Ó Cuirrín)
