Translation Help

Good Morning All -

I have a quick question...I need a little help in translating the phrase "Solitary Druids" into Irish. (also pronounciation)

Would it be something like one of these options (I could be way off base):

1. Draiothe Aonair n Gen
2. Draiothe Aonarach

Thanks in advance for your help!

Hi Seeker,

sorry I missed this.

Na Draoithe aonarach would probably be closest to what you want to say.

(we usually use the definite article when referring to a group impling plurals)

best wishes
