Hi Jonathan, :)

Be welcome to write here.

Greetings!

P.S. Does "Dia duit gach duine" means exactly "Hi everyone" in Irish? And how do you pronounce that? - I'm asking just out of curiosity.

Hi Marvolo

Hi Marvolo

I am Irish but I wouldn't claim to be a big speaker of our language but Dia Duit means Hello and Gach Duine means Everyone. This is a good online dictionary if ya wanted to check out some more translations http://www.englishirishdictionary.com/dictionary.

As for the pronounciation, if you read this phonetically it should make sense. "Dea Gwit, Goch Dinna."

Cheers
