Ga: Ba chosúil go raibh sé ag iarraidh a cuid céimeanna a imirt.
En: It seemed he was trying to test her moves.

Ga: Thairis sin, thairg sé comhghuaillíocht.
En: On top of that, he offered an alliance.

Ga: Bhí Brigid buartha.

En: “People,” announced the dealer, “This is the final stroke.”

Ga: Bhí dhá plaiste céadaithe ag Brigid agus chuir sí an geall.
En: Brigid had two hundred chips and she placed the bet.

Ga: Thug Séamus aghaidh agus rinne sé iarracht bréagán í.
En: Séamus faced her and tried to mislead her.

Ga: Sheol sé focail boga.
En: He sent soft words her way.

Ga: Ach bhí a fhios aici.
En: But she knew.

Ga: Ní raibh sí á n-ionanamh a thuilleadh.
En: She wasn’t falling for it anymore.

Ga: "Tá roghanna agat, Brigid," a dúirt Séamus, ag caitheamh cárta síos. "An féidir linn a bheith mar fhoireann?"
En: “You have choices, Brigid,” Séamus said, laying down a card. “Can we be a team?”

Ga: D’fhéach sí go domhain isteach ina shúile.
En: She looked deeply into his eyes.

Ga: "Ní féidir. Tá tú ró-chontúirteach."

Ga: "Grá agus focail d'anam," a dúirt sé go ciúin.
En: “Love and words for your soul,” he said quietly.

Ga: "Is é mo bhuachan," a dúirt Brigid go láidir.
En: “It’s my win,” Brigid said firmly.

Ga: Cuireadh lámha isteach, agus bhuaigh Brigid an comórtas.
En: Hands were raised, and Brigid won the competition.
