Translation help please.

[dragonandbear]

I would like a scots-gaelic translation for the following words...
love
faith
hope
family

and by family I am referring to complete family like grandfathers, father, mother, grandmothers, aunts, uncles, brothers, sisters, cousins, children, grandchildren, etc.

Faith, hope, and love as in 1 Corinthians 13:13.

I would appreciate any help. Thank you!

If you want an appropriate translation, just buy a Scottish Gaelic Bible.

[Steaphan]

love - gràdh
faith (religion) - creideamh
hope - dòchas
family (relatives etc) - dlùth-chàirdean or just càirdean

Is it the case that "gaol" means love as a concept and "gràdh" a loved one?

[Steaphan]

I don't know about that...bit too technical for me.

However you can use both gaol and gràdh to refer to all your loved ones. However you would use "gràdh" for, say a casual date rather than "gaol", so I think "gaol" implies something deeper than "gràdh" and more serious.

Examples.

"A bheil thu a' faireachdainn nas fheàrr, a ghràidh?" - Are you feeling better, dear?

"Ghabh iad gaol mòr air a chèile." They fell deeply in love.

Gràdh diadhaidh - devine love (I have never seen "gaol" used in this context)

So you can see "gaol" seems rather more intimate.
