When The Drop Is Inside

In my post, The Demon Drink, I explore Irish sayings and expressions that warn us against drinking too much.

Here's one in Irish.

"Nuair a bhíos an braon istigh

bíonn an chiall amuigh."

Just click the sound file above to listen to the pronunciation.

(I'm not a native Irish speaker, but I remember enough from school to help out.)

Here it is written phonetically ....

Noo-ur ah vee-us on bray-un ish-tig,

Bee-un on khee-uhl ahm-wih.

Translated into English this means...

"When the drop is inside

the sense is outside."

Thanks for stopping by to check out this old Irish saying.
