Need a quick Gaelic translation

[Warhoover]

Need a quick Gaelic translation for a project I am doing and it seems to be stumping the usual Gaelic Dictionaries I use online:

Onior Do Na Mardh

I know:

Onior = Honor
Do = Your, Thine, Thy

, but the rest of it I can't come close with. Any help would be appreciated!



Thanks,

Brad

Is that the correct spelling? No fada?

[Warhoover]

I think that is right, its on my pipe band's crest, I am working on a project for our website and unfortunately our pipe major is not available for me to get him to translate it, I can email you a picture of the crest if that will help

Well, if it's Scots Gaelic, Na can be Than or What depending on the usage.
Mardh is March, but as in the month rather than marching.

The phrase altogether doesn't really make any sense to me. Gramatically speaking as well as the wording used it is pretty much just 4 words strung together.
(I will point out again, though, my Gaelic still has a long way to go.)

[Galician]

Having dealt with texts in different languages, it might not be beyond reason to think that the person who wrote the phrase didn't know any better than you do. Using March for a march is such a typical error when translating based solely on a dictionary.

[Warhoover]

I know but usually if I can get the words figured out I can play with the phrase and get the meaning.

maybe Mardh is supposed to be a pun? an ungrammatical pun of some kind?For example my sister dances with an Irish-dance studio called An Cor Rud. Zing!

Here's my guess:

There's a few spelling mistakes there, but this is really the only thing it could possibly be:

Onóir do na marbh (IRISH)
ONoir do na marbh (SCOTTISH)
Honour your dead

[beloitpiper]

Ah, see it makes sense when you provide us with the correct words. slohairt has got it.
