Help with English to Scottish Gaelic Translation

Hello from Canada

I was wondering if anyone would be able to give me the translation for the word "passion" to scottish gaelic or the phrase "live life with passion"

My heritage is scottish and I'm considering getting a tattoo

Hello to you and welcome to Scotland.com

Always nice to hear from ex-colonials with a genuine interest in their Gaelic heritage and culture.

The appropriate Gaelic translation for “passion” in this context would be “lasanta”

The phrase "live life with passion" would be “Be beo fad do beatha le lasanta”

You will doubtless be aware that warnings are regularly issued to check the authenticity of those translations before committing yourself. There are numerous sites, some of them given in previous threads, where Gaelic dictionaries are available for you to check.
