Colscaradh poem
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| There is a great contrast in the couples desires | Tá codarsnacht mhór I mianta an lánúin |
| The wife wants a modern life | Tá saol nua-aimseartha ag taistáil ón bhean chéile |
| The mans desires were focused on family and the woman’s derides were focused on life outside the home | Bhí mianta an fhir dírithe ar an teaghlach Avis bhí mhianta na mná dirithe ar an saol taobh amuigh den bhaile |
| There is simple yet concise language in the poem | Tá friotal simplí, gonta ach éifeachtach sa dán |
| The nest of his home | I nead a chine |
| She wanted half the trousers | Is taobh den bhríste |
| And half of the cake | Is leath den chíste |
| They came to a solution. They separated | Thángthas ar réiteach. Scaradar |
| Bai meann an dán leis na fadhbanna a bhíonn ag lánúineacha pósta | The poem is about the problems that married couples have |
| There was a big gap in what the couple wants | Bhí bearna mhór idir mianta na beirte |
| Theastaigh ón bhfear agus ón mbean a bheith pósta | The man and the woman wanted to be married |
| The poet uses contrast and metaphors to show the problems of the two | Baineann an file úsáid as an gcodarsnacht agus as meafair chun fadbhanna na beirte a tháispeant |
| There is disappointment and sadness because the happy relationship didn’t work out | Tá díoma agus brón sa dán toisc nar éirigh leis an mbeirt a bheith sona le chéile |
