Help is greatly appreciated. Thought I had a translation from elsewhere but it was never confirmed.

TAT: (CO) Translation of: "For those I love, I will Sacrifice"

It has dual meaning for me. My son has the same phrase tattooed in english. My tat will be in conjunction with an Irish Cross.

The meaning for me is sacrifice for my loved ones like me son, wife etc. and the love of Christ for us all.

Thanks to all that provide this help.

Over at IGTF, we arrived at the following translation:

Dhéanfainn gach íobairt dóibh siúd a bhfuil grá agam dóibh "For those I love, I will Sacrifice" literally "I would make every sacrifice for those I love."

The reasons for the slightly different wording are given in the following thread:
