Need to translate something in Irish

[Goliath]

Hey guys,

I'd like to know what "luck" and maybe "luck and love" is, in (old) Irish.
I'm going to get a tattoo of a clover and I might want to put it beneath it

Thanks!

There are Irish members on here but until they pop in have a look in here.

Grá = love

Ádh = luck


You must have great faith in human nature to get a tatoo based on a translation given in an internet forum.

I know
But on second thought, I like "Prosperity" better.

And I found this about that: http://www.englishirishdictionary.com/dictionary?dict=ie&word=rath%FAnas

The site doesn't work at the moment, but their translation for Prosperity is rathúnas, can anyone confirm that?

I guess they're right, because they also say that Luck is ádh.

Thanks for the responses!

You're best bet is to go onto www.boards.ie and ask there. Ask in the Gaelic forums.

Gra is love and adh is luck, but you'd need it put in the right context!
