ABSTRACT

This chapter presents stimulating exercises with lively illustrations to show how Irish speakers ask and tell their address and state their nationality. Once someone indicates their address, one may need further clarification to determine where that is. The expression Cén áit a bhfuil sé sin? or, for short, Cén áit sé sin? “Where is that?” may be helpful. The singular and plural forms of two prepositions with personal pronouns are dhuit/dhaoibh and ort/oraibh. The preposition ag means “at.” It combines with personal pronouns to make the following forms – agam “at me,” agat “at you,” aige “at him,” aici “at her,” againn “at us,” agaibh “at you,” and acu “at them.” Hence, the plural form of “at you” is agaibh.
