irish - Na deoraithe - Elena character

Elena is a nervous and anxious person

duine neirbhíseach agus imníoch is ea Elena

but that is understandable

ach tá sé sin intuigthe

because she had to leave ukraine to escape the war there

mar bhí uirthi an Úcrain a fhágáil chun éalú ón gcogadh ansin

elena is a hardworking person too

duine dícheallach is ea Elena freisin

she works in a supermarket part time

Tá sí ag obair in ollmhargadh go páirtaimseartha

this is a huge drop in status because they were well off in Ukraine

is céim síos mór di é seo mar bhí muintir mironov go maith san ukraine

Elena was a little conservative

tá elena beagáinín coimeádach

she doesnt like alcohol

ní maith lei alcól

elena doesnt get on with her mother in law

ní reitíonn elena go rómhaith lena mathair chéile

she understands mamo wants them to go home

tuigeann sí go bhfuil mamo ag iarraidh orthu teacht abhaile

thats the reason for the tention between them

sin is cúis leis an teanas idir elena agus mamo
