Say this back to him.
Ill spell it so you'll understand the pronunciation.
'cunnis a ta tu? An will tu go moth?
It means..... how are you? Are you well?
In your Q what do you mean by..'Why he thinks people like me'?
I dont understand that.

Dia is Muire agat is pronounced dees morah git - it means literally 'God and Mary with you', and is used as 'hello'.
Hope that helps.
