    Yes, the question asked for a noun in the possessive. Dhearthair is the right answer, because the question read as 'the brother of' and it had an 'i' in it before the r.

    Soo happy with that-Paper 1 was lovely did the diospoireacht about education and the litir about famous people in paper 2.Though the studied poetry and pros was good( the unseen poetry was a bit...weird)Overall thought it went grand.Felt really sorry for all the people who had learnt essays about timpistes though-but sure what's done is done at this stage.Worrying wont change anything :)

    I think I got them but if you write too much in the answer do you not get the marks?

    You mean just copying out the whole thing and hoping you hit the answer? You will lose marks for that, yes, but if you answer the question you won't.

    I thought leadoige was the right one-one of the rules hammered in to us was "dhá ainmfhocal ag teacht le chéile an dara Cheann sa tuiseal ginideach" it's only two marks anyway :)

    Paper 1 was beautiful! Was a bit thrown by the essay titles at first but I wrote an essay like a month ago about an event that happened at the Gaeltacht and said there was a donkey beside our house and it wouldn't shut up so we snuck out in the middle of the night and cut the rope. So I said I was in a boarding schools and then wrote that :') unseen prose and poetry were okay- could have been better, could have been worse. And I was confused in the letter with "moladh"- didn't know whether it meant praise or advice from the context, but they'll have to allow for both, surely?
