Irish: Sin agat é!
English: There you have it!
Notes: Although learners are often taught how to start conversations, few are taught normal ways of “signing off”. This can be a source of embarassment to all. The expression Sin agat é! is usually said when a person has given some information, personal or otherwise and wishes to move on. It would still normally require some well wishing before moving on.
