Off Topic: Does anyone here speak Gaelic or Proto Celtic?

[Lin Evans]

Just wondering if anyone here from the UK, Ireland, Scotland or the surrounding area speaks Gaelic or any of the Celtic derivatives? I have a song I would like translated into English...

Best regards,

Lin

Hi Lin

As you probably know most internet sites want payment, one of these supplies translations for individual words for free, but only one at a time.

Hi,

If it was written down, I could translate it myself, but it's a song so no luck in that department. Thanks,

Lin

Hi Brian,

Thanks much for the link! I have sent the song file to a friend who may be able to help with translation. If I had the written lyrics I think I could translate, but my ear isn't accustomed to the language so I wouldn't even know where to start with spelling, etc.

Best regards,

Lin

Lin,

If the song is by Enya, here is a website that provides a translation of the lyrics to all her songs: http://www.pathname.com/enya/

Google for "Enya song lyrics English" will find other sites of interest.
