"Níor fhás mo pháiste."

Translation: My child did not grow.

[John787925]

Ar diol: bróga leanbh, níor caitheadh riamh

[fanniblanka]

It's a pity that you need one more word in Irish. Great translation nonetheless! :)

[Fabitorti]

would grow up be a good translation as well in that context?

[scilling]

Fás aníos or fás suas would typically be used to translate “grow up”.

Why not Níorbh?

[SatharnPHL]

Why would it be "níorbh"?

That's a genuine question - what do you think "níorbh" means, and why do you think it should be used here?

[Gregory743155]

Níorbh isn't a form of níor used before a vowel or before fh, then?

The níor in this exercise is a negative verbal particle - it is negating a past tense verb.

níorbh is a form of the copula is.
