Harry Potter agus an \u00d3rchloch<\/em>
\nle J. K. Rowling<\/em><\/h3>\n

Last week I wrote about some Irish language resources, and I mentioned reading books in Irish that you are already familiar with in English. Below is an excerpt from Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone in Irish. See if you can catch any familiar words in Irish, and then check the English version below. Good luck!<\/p>\n

\u201cWant a hand?\u201d It was one of the red-haired twins he\u2019d followed through the ticket box.
\n\u201cYes, please,\u201d Harry panted.
\n\u201cOy, Fred! C\u2019mere and help!\u201d
\nWith the twins\u2019 help, Harry\u2019s trunk was at last tucked away in a corner of the compartment.
\n\u201cThanks,\u2019 said Harry, pushing his sweaty hair out of his eyes.
\n\u201cWhat\u2019s that?\u201d said one of the twins suddenly, pointing at Harry\u2019s lightning scar.
\n\u201cBlimey,\u201d said the other twin. \u201cAre you -?\u201d
\n\u201cHe is,\u201d said the first twin. \u201cAren\u2019t you?\u201d he added to Harry.
\n\u201cWhat?\u201d said Harry.
\n\u201cHarry Potter,\u201d chorused the twins.
\n\u201cOh, him,\u201d said Harry. \u201cI mean, yes, I am.\u201d
\nThe two boys gawped at him.
\nHarry felt himself going red.
\nThen, to his relief, a voice came floating in through the train\u2019s open door.
\n\u201cFred, George? Are you there?\u201d
\n\u201cComing, Mum.\u201d
\nWith a last look at Harry, the twins hopped off the train.
\nHarry sat down next to the window where, half-hidden, he could watch the red-haired family on the platform and hear what they were saying.
\nTheir mother had just taken out her handkerchief.
\n\u201cRon, you\u2019ve got something on your nose.\u201d
\nThe youngest boy tried to jerk out of the way, but she grabbed him and began rubbing the end of his nose.
\n\u201cMum \u2013 geroff.\u201d He wriggled free.
\n\u201cAah, has ickle Ronnie got somefink on his nosie?\u201d said one of the twins.
\n\u201cShut up,\u201d said Ron.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
