Translation Request

[epmc]

Hi -

I'm looking for the Scottish Gaelic word that most closely translates as "tenacious." Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks! Erin

Epmc,

If you could let me know the context in which you want to use the word “tenacious” I might be able to give you a suitable word or expression to convey the meaning.

A literal translation of one word or phrase is not always possible and may not give the meaning that you intend to convey.

Hi Crofter -

Hmmm... a little backstory, I guess, might help. My dad died recently, and just before, he gave a speech in which he described me as tenacious. I plan on getting a tattoo to remind myself - I'm thinking of tenacious as somewhere between determined, persevering, and just plain stubborn. I guess that if a phrase might be easier to translate, I'm looking for something like "be tenacious" or "stay tenacious." I'm not necessarily looking for a single word, if a phrase or expression would better suit.

Hope this helps - thanks again. And let me know if further clarification would help...

My condolences on your sad loss.

Some words are harder than others to translate directly and retain the intended meaning. Hope this will suit you, best I can do.

Tenacious – Fèin Bharaileach (literally – self assured)
“Fain Vareloch”

Or:

Tha mi cinnteach na mo bharalaichean (literally - I am certain in my beliefs)
“Haa me keentach na mo varalichen”

As far as I know tenaz try this may this helps you rather then that any have idea then serve here .
