159.0. "PICKY, PICKY!!" by CSWVAX::MANNING () Thu Mar 19 1987 12:37

    Hate to be so picky, but your salutation should have read,
    "Dia dhibh, gach einne," if we agree that "gach einne" is plural.
    Outside of that comment, I really enjoy reading your notes and
    marvel at your obvious command of Irish (or Gaelic)

    You are right, it should Dhibh, which is plural, sometimes I get
    it wrong. It's been a long time but when I can I speak it.
    
    We had an Irish girl here once and we spoke in Irish a lot of the
    time.

	Actually, I hope .0 is not right!  I think you want 'Dia
dhaoibh' which is 'God be with ye'.  Dia dh�bh means God be *from* ye.
