Hello, I would like to get "Live today for tomorrows sake" translated into Irish Gaelic please. Its a phrase that means a lot to me and so does my heritage so I cant tell you how much it would mean to me. I understand the "Live" in this case might be more along the lines of "Experience" and I am more than okay with that as well. Thank you for all that you folk do.

Jon

Mair inniu ar son amárach

Under no circumstances would I trust that! I am still learning so it sometimes helps me to take a shot and let someone else 'fix' it. Somebody more learned will be along to help you (and me) out!

Grma!

An TG - níl ach aithne súil agam air! One day, we'll become well acquainted - it's on my bucket list. The problem is that the bucket is overflowing...... :mrgreen:

You are correct that needs to be in the genitive but amárach isn't declined with it, so an lae amárach is correct. (FGB has as an example cuid an lae amárach "tomorrow's share, food".)
