                An Dlí = the law, if that helps. Pronounced "On Dlee".

                  Why is 'The judge and the solicitors' wrong when dlíodóirí is correct for solicitors in every other answer I have given?

                  Every solicitors is, by definition, a dlíodóir. Not every dlíodóir is a solicitor.

                  The Irish for "solicitor" is aturnae. The English for dlíodóir is "lawyer".

                    I said attorneys. Why is that wrong?

                    The Irish for "attorney" is aturnae.
