Las na soilse! Múch na Soilse!

Las na soilse! Múch na Soilse!

The phrase 'las na soilse/múch na soilse' in Irish translates to 'turn on the lights/turn off the lights in English.
This phrase is commonly used in everyday speech in Irish, especially in contexts where someone is either entering or leaving a room.

Try to make it a part of everyday routines. Every time you enter or leave a room, say the phrase to remind your child to turn the lights on or off. This not only teaches them the phrase but also instils good habits regarding electricity use! 

As children progress, encourage them to use the question; 'An lasfaidh mé na soilse? / 'An múcfaidh mé na soilse? This translates to 'will I turn on the lights?'/ 'will I turn off the lights?'.
