Dè an obair a th' agad?

What's your job?

You’ll remember from A1 Cuspair 7 of SpeakGaelic that we learnt how to ask people what work they do and how to answer that question.  

Dè an obair a th’ agad? 

What’s your job?  (literally, what is the job that’s at you?) 

‘S e … a th’ annam 

I’m a …   (literally, it’s a … that’s in me.)
