Dè tha romhad?

What's ahead for you?

We saw the preposition ro first in Cuspair 10, where we used it to say ‘before’.

And we learned the prepositional pronouns with ro in Cuspair 23. Do you remember them?

ro + miromham
ro + thuromhad
ro + eroimhe
ro + iroimhpe
ro + sinnromhainn
ro + sibhromhaibh
ro + iadromhpa

We use ro, ron and roimhe to talk about the past, air na thachair roimhe (what happened before), but we can also use ro to say na tha romhainn (what is before us, what is to come).

We can use ro with the verb cuir with another useful meaning: Chuir mi romham (I put before me, I decided).
