Great quiz! Just a heads up, the language's official English name is simply Irish, and "Prátaí" is plural. A singular potato would be "Práta".

Nice quiz. 'Linn' actually translates to 'with us'. There are 2 words for 'us'. 'Muid' would be commonly used but 'sinn' also works.

Knowing Welsh only helped a little (e.g seacht - saith (for seven))
