    Default Irish Translator

    Hello Irish people,
    I want to say some things in Irish to some American people. I was hoping that you could translate a few sentences for me. Is anyone here fluent in Irish?

    I know there is the "kiss my ass" not sure how to spell pog ma hone
    But there are direct sentences also that id like to translate.

    I got an A2 in my leaving cert many years ago so i suppose I'm fluent

    Kiss my ass - pog ma thon (pronounced h-own)
    fuck off- foc il leat (pronounced latt)

    There are different dialects through the country. Different words are used for some things in each region.

    I always new the word for penis as been budgeen. I never saw it in the written form as their would be no need for it for Leaving Cert But in other regions it's known as slat. In my translation a slat is a rod

    It could happen to any of us.
