Gaelic Translation Please if Possible
12 Answers
Hi all, Can any of you help with a translation from Gaelic to English please. I'm assuming that it is Irish because of the little harp. I don't even know what this little item is, but perhaps knowing the words may help me. Thanks in advance.

Hi again. I've looked at the link and from what I can make out c with a dot becomes ch - (just like Welsh) so I'm having a guess that one word is Briocht (bread perhaps). As for the other 2 words they seem to spell out sae dh ealach and rean mh ar. So I'm off again now to try and translate them somewhere. Thanks again.

I have a friend who is a linguist and thought he may know somebody who could help and they came up trumps. This is part of what they said
"Irish is VERY old, not modern Irish at all, which is why it took a wee bit longer to decipher.
The full translation according to them is "The Lucky Irish Amulet Drum".
