Agus = I think it means "and."

Back in my "Irish heritage wannabe" days, I really, really tried to learn Gaelic. There are altogether too many letters in most of those words! Not to mention the picky rules of grammar.

Although, when I took a boat out to Inis Mor, I did enjoy hearing the natives speak in the Gaelic with that wonderful blas to give it some zing.

Slain agat!
Kathleen
