Hi
I was trying to find out the translation for the word, 'India' and it seems that it pretty much stays the same - therefore, I was wondering about literally translating the letters from English to Gaelic - any ideas?!

You could use the old celtic script to write 'An India'. Samples of the letters are at the first site below. Use the letter i without the accent.
Or you could use The Ogham alphabet, the archaic form of Irish/Celtic writing system. "Each letter is named after a tree or other plant and has a number of other associations. Letters are linked together by a solid line, which represents the trunk of a tree, while the letters themselves represent branches or twigs" The letters are illustrated at the second site.

the letters are the same, the reason the word is the same is because India was named India after Irish was an evolving language. so it's o.k to use the english word
