Colscaradh- Key Words Flashcards
In this poem we see two different attitudes towards marriage
Pléann an dán seo dhá dhearcadh dhifriúla ar an bpósadh
Attitude of the old fashioned man
Dearcadh an fhir seanaimseartha
In the old days
Sna seanlaethanta
The fireplace represents comfort and peace
Seasann an tine don chompord agus don teas
Without money
Gan aon airgead
We see the woman’s wishes
Feicimid mianta na mna
Modern
Nuaaimseartha
She wants half the authority , halt the money,holidays abroad and half the money and respect
Santaíonn sí leath den údarás,leath den airgead, saoire thar lear agus méad na milte
The women who stay at home working , staying with the children do not get money or fame or self respect
Ní fhaigheann na mná a fhanann sé teacht tabhairt aire do na páistí meas nó airgead nó féin mheas
The two images together do not agree
Ní réitíonn an dá íomhá sin lena chéile
The man and the woman reaches a conclusion
Tháinig an fear agus an bhean ar réiteach
They decided to seperate
Shocraigh siad ar cholscaradh
This is a Satisfactory solution
Is réiteach sásúil é seo
He was sure his wife would stay in the house, cleaning, cooking and looking after the children
Bhí sé ag súil go bhfanfadh a bhean sa teach, ag glanadh,ag cócaireacht , ag tógáil na clainne
In the old days l, a couple married and the woman stayed at home. they raised the family
Sna seanlaethanta, phós lánúin agus d’fhan na mná sa teacht. Tóg siad an chlann
