MacDara Ó Conaola of An Chláir as Gaeilge brings you this week’s Macalla an Chláir column

AMADÁN AIBREÁN! / APRIL FOOLS’!
Dia dhaoibh a Chairde. Tá súil agam go bhfuil sibh uilig go maith / Hi everybody. I hope youse are all well.
Nach deas fad a fheiceáil ag teacht ar na trathnóntacha / How nice it is to see a stretch in the evenings.

Ní fada go mbeidh boladh breá na mbeárbaiciúnna agus an féar nua-ghearrtha san aer / It won’t be long until we get the lovely smells of barbecues and freshly cut grass in the air. Agus Lá na nAmadán buailte linn, amarach, bígí san airdeall ar ghleacaithe agus iad ag iarraidh amadáin a dhéanamh dhíbh! / With April Fools’ Day upon us, tomorrow, be aware of tricksters and them wanting to fool youse!
