Wisdom is never on the menu, you have to own the restaurant.

And to throw another one on the pile, how about "níos mó"?

I'm not sure this is this correct - at the very least, I personally wouldn't used it in speech; I use "a thuilleadh". It could be right, though.

There's nothing wrong with "níos mó".

Níl madra agam níos mó?

That's right but you can also say -

Ní dhéanadh mé é sin níos mó.
I won't do that from now on.

My "specialty" is Connemara Irish, particularly Cois Fhairrge dialect, but I can also speak Ulster and Munster Irish with native-level pronunciation.
Is fearr Gaeilge ḃriste ná Béarla cliste, cinnte, aċ i ḃfad níos fearr aríst í Gaeilge ḃinn ḃeo na nGaeltaċtaí.
Gaeilge Chonnacht (GC), go háraid Gaeilge Chois Fhairrge (GCF), Gaeilic Uladh (GU), Gaelainn na Mumhan (GM), agus Gaeilge an Chaighdeáin Oifigiúil (CO).

I think this is at least partially dialectal. I’m not certain, but I think using níos mó in this way is extremely common (almost the only one used) in Ulster, is about as common as a thuilleadh and feasta in the ‘middle’, and it fairly uncommon in Munster.

Feasta seems to have the opposite distribution: very common in Munster, but I don’t think I’ve ever heard anyone use it in Ulster. Of course, in Ulster, it could very easily be mixed up with fosta, something that is not really possible in Munster (since they use freisin where Ulster uses fosta).

Always wait for at least three people to agree on a translation, especially if it’s for something permanent.

My translations are usually GU (Ulster Irish), unless CO (Standard Orthography) is requested.

As long as it's put down to dialect, that's me happy Tells me I'm not completely clueless
