Cuairteoir (Leaving Cert Irish): Revision Notes

Móthúcháin

Móthúchán	Cá bhfeicimid é sa scéal?	Where it appears in the story
Uaigneas	Tá an bhean ina haonar ar feadh i bhfad. Níl aon duine ag tabhairt cuairte uirthi.	The woman is alone for a long time. Nobody visits her.
Eagla	Tagann an cuairteoir isteach go tobann. Tá sí buartha faoi cé hé agus cén fáth atá sé ann.	The visitor arrives suddenly. She's worried about who he is and why he's there.
Teannas	Tá atmaisféar trom sa teach le linn na cuairte. Braitheann an léitheoir an brú síceolaíoch.	There's a heavy atmosphere in the house during the visit. The reader feels psychological tension.
Corrthónacht	Tá an bhean trína chéile agus míshuaimhneach. Ní thuigeann sí an scéal i gceart.	The woman is unsettled and uneasy. She doesn't fully understand the situation.
Trua	Cé go bhfuil sí neirbhíseach, tá trua ag an mbean don chuairteoir.	Even though she's nervous, the woman feels sympathy for the visitor.
Faitíos	Tá sí faoi gheasa gan an doras a oscailt, ach tá sí ag iarraidh a bheith cineálta.	She's afraid to open the door, but still wants to be kind.
Ionadh	Tá ionadh uirthi nuair a thagann an fear, agus nuair a n-imíonn sé gan tuilleadh mínithe.	She's surprised when the man arrives and when he leaves without explanation.
