I think you could have just put 'Andy' for 'Imreoir gairmiúil leadóige is..................é' .

I said is ea é but a lot of my year put down is fearr so I don't know...Irish grammar isn't exactly my strongest point!

I think either of them would do, but admittedly it's over 30 years since I sat in an Irish class. lol

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?

I'm smart enough but people like you make me feel so stupid omg, I don't even know how to say boarding school as Gaelige

For the last one the question was the write down a noun in the tuiseal ginideach from the sentence, which i think was 'dhearthair.'

Alright,didnt read the top part

I was so scared for the ceapadoireacht because we'd only prepared accident eachtra's and I'd never done an Aiste before yet was left to waffle about a holiday. Think I got like so in the paper:

Listening:
12/40

Reading:
1) 16/20
2) 12/20

TTC:
1) 8/10
2) 8/10

Ceapadoireacht:
1.v (Holiday) 41/50

Total:97/150 (65%)


Stories:
Unseen: 5/15
Seen: 10/15

Poetry:
Unseen: 5/15
Seen: 12/15

Litir:

24/30

Total: 56/90 (62%)

GRADE: C

I'd be delighted with that seeing as how hard i thought it was at the time.

I got tugann for the first verb, fearr for the bit you got leis ( I think its ea though), ná for nó and leadoige for Jamie:)

bluejay14

Just to clear this all up on thst grammar question on P1, a year of college Irish should have left me with the ability to sort this much out!

- sa bhliain
- is ea é
- sé troigh
- ná breis
- leadóige ( two nouns together puts the second into the tuiseal ginideach, adding an i and an e into 'leadóg'

Liordi

I got 2/10, that's embarrassing.

If I got about 83-84%, do you think there is any chance they'd bump me up to an A or are they really strict about that?
