Hey Red:*p*     Here are some nasty things to say in Irish:*p*These are pretty much variations on "go to hell!":*p*Go hifreann leat! [g@ hif'r'@n l'aet]*br*(To hell with you)*p*Téigh i dtigh diabhail! [t'e: @ d'i: d'aul']*br*(Go in the devil's house)*p*Go mbeire an diabhal leis thú! [g@ mer'@ @n d'aul l'es' hu:]*br*(May the devil take you with him)*p*D'anam don diabhal! [dan@m d@n d'aul]*br*(Your soul to the devil)*p*Do chorp don diabhal! [d@ xorp d@n d'aul]*br*(Your body to the devil)*p*Imigh sa diabhal! [im'i: s@ d'aul]*br*(Go to the devil)*p*These are kind of like saying "screw you!":*p*Damnú ort! [damnu: ort]*br*(Damnation on you)*p*Loscadh is dó ort! [losk@ @s do: ort]*br*(Scorching and burning on you)*p*Múchadh is bá ort!
