CONVERSATION

Máirín (maw*-REEN): Cándeachaigh túinné? Chonaic métúag dul síos an bóthar go luath. Where did you go yesterday? I saw you going down the road early.

Pól (pohl): Chuala mégo raibhéadach saor ag na siopaísa chathair. Isteach liom ar an traein, ach nífhaca mérud ar bith arbh fhiúdom a cheannach. Níraibh mórán daoine ann, ach oiread. I heard that clothes were cheap at the stores in the city. In I went on the train, but I didn't see anything worth buying. There weren't many people there either.

Máirín: Nár chuala mégo bhfuil na praghsanna (PREYE-suh-nuh) ag dul síos anois? Didn't I hear that the prices are going down now?

Pól: Níor chuala méé, agus nífhaca méé, ach oiread. Cheannaigh méléine agus bríste, agus ansin tháinig méabhaile faoi dheireadh (YER-uh). I didn't hear it, and I didn't see it either. I bought a shirt and trousers, and then I came home finally.

Máirín: Nach mór an truaé, anois? Isn't it a pity, now?

PRONUNCIATION

Read the passage in the next paragraph slowly without looking at the key below it. Then read it a second time, making use of the key if you are unsure. Do not try to make sense out of the words; merely concentrate on the pronunciation:

I ngach uile cheann, déarfar gur chuir cairde dílse go fÛill go bhfuil an méid sin aicme agus dreamannaéagsúla ann nach aon mhaith a bheith a mealladh sa Taispeántas Ealaíne.
