kittydesadeSo, I didn't end up with time to either do my Irish or exercise this morning because the boy decided he wanted to go out for breakfast. Which is fine! As long as it doesn't happen too often, now I'm all sleepy and off pace. Ah well.
I need an epic nap right about now.
Did at least manage to get another page into Russian putting me at... 84? For tomorrow. And Irish and exercise can happen when I get home. So can watering plants. I still haven't gotten a shipping email from the plant place I ordered the flytrap from and I know this is normal and I'm still going to be incredibly impatient until I get my plants. My cereus and my jasmine! All my plants give to zim.
I feel like I should have more to say, but I don't, really. I think mostly what I need is to go to bed early, for example, I started this entry at about 10 in the morning and am finishing it up at 10.30 at night. Not all of that is due to having shit to do, either, some of it is just due to sitting down in one place for too long and feeling exhausted. Which is probably what happens when I eat sugar-loaded pancakes first thing in the morning and don't exercise during the day? Which just goes to make me think, god, when I did this more regularly, no wonder I felt like crap. Still. Tomorrow is another day, and I don't do this so often anymore.
Anyway. Okay, typing up some Irish before I pass out. Need to review verb tenses as well as verbal nouns, actually, translating the other day made me realize I've forgotten a lot of the formations.
Attributive adjectives must agree with the nouns they modify, matching their noun's gender, number, and case. Unit 5 described how articles affect the first consonant or vowel fo a noun differently, depending on the gender. Similarly, adjective agreement is shown by mutation. In the common case, adjectives modifying masculine nouns have no mutation, but feminine nouns lenite the first consonante of a modifying adjective, just as the article lenites the noun.
Seán Mór - Big Seán
Bríd Mhór - Big Bríd
teach breá - a fine house
tine bhreá - a fine fire
an fear bocht - the poor man
an bhean bhocht - the poor woman
