Hey Ognahe, They aren't deleted. The default setting of the board is showing only the posts of the last 30 days. But you can change it. Go to the Speakers Corner Index Site and then scroll to the bottom. There's a box with "From: 30 days". Just change that into "show all", click "go" and there you are (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) Hope I could help, Muireann Hi everyone, interesting site, it's a shame most of the older posts are deleted as their doesn't seem to be much activity recently. Slan. |

Heyho (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) In German phonetics it would be "Markach Sk�mmel". In English phonetics it would be something like "marcach sca-mul". The "ch" in Marcach is pronounced like the "ch" in the name of the German composer Bach. |

Hello A�ne, "Wolkenreiter" does indeed mean "cloud-rider". In Gaeilge this would be "marcach scamaill". And Byrne, "N�al" is also a word for cloud, but rather in the context of clouding in. Hope I could help, Muireann |

Heyho, Roidsear knows the chords, but he hasn't got the time to look inside this forum these days. But you could write him an email and I'm sure he will help you with the chords (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) Sl�n go f�ill, Muireann |

hehe (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) I found the word "Fries" in my Deutsch-Irisch dictionary, but there was no further explanation. Only: "Fries - fr�os". And now that you say it, I think the wall decoration is rather meant than Friesland (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) But if you wanted to match the phonetic expression of Vries, it would be "Fr�os" as well, so... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) If I find more I'll let you know (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) |

Heyho *wave* Ryan would be "R�an" (pronounce REE-an) as gaeilge. Your surname "De Vries" could be rendered as "� Fr�os". "Fr�os" means "Fries" in Irish, but in my dictionary there is no further explanation what is meant by Fries. But "R�an � Fr�os" looks good and sounds nice, so I would keep it that way (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) Sl�n go f�ill, "Tiona Si� Elan Nic Uasal" (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) |

I didn't find the answer when I first heard the riddle (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) Somehow the answer is logical... but, indeed... in a very psychopathic way... |

As requested: the translation of "Si�il A R�n" Si�il, si�il, si�il a r�n Si�il go sochair agus si�il go ci�in Si�il go doras agus �alaigh liom Is go dt� t� mo mh�irn�n sl�n Go, go, go, oh love Go peacefully and go quiet Go to the door and fly with me And may you go safe my darling Literally, "si�il" is "to go" though it is meant here as "come with me". Hope this helps, Muireann |

Thanks very much! I've been looking all over for those chords, and just joined the forum today! It's already made me feel so happy (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) You won't believe me if I tell you that Roidsear and me wanted to ask YOU for the chords because of your relations to Clannad (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Mar at� sin... F�ilte go clar pl� s'againn! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) Sl�n go f�ill, Muireann |

Na nD� dhaoibh! Ok, here's the first request ;) Yesterday we tried to figure out the chords to the Clannad version of "Si�il A R�n", but we're still uncertain with one of them. Does anybody have the chords to this special version (they play a slightly different one than the one usually found on the internet)? Go raibh m�le maith agaibh, Muireann |

Na nD� dhaoibh, I joined this forum because I love celtic music. I play the guitar and I'm always looking for new songs to sing. I also write my own songs and poems. I hope to meet other people with common interests here and I'm looking forward to contribute to the forum. Beannacht libh, Muireann |
