What is dishonor in Gaelic?

There isn't one single perfect translation for "dishonor" in Gaelic, as the best word depends on the nuance you want to convey. Here are a few options, with slight differences in meaning:

* `Mí-onóir` (pronounced roughly mee-ON-eer): This is a fairly direct translation, literally meaning "bad honor" or "lack of honor." It's a good general option.

* `Náire` (pronounced roughly NAH-reh): This translates more closely to "shame" or "disgrace." It emphasizes the social aspect of dishonor, the feeling of being shamed or brought low in the eyes of others.

* `Aird` (pronounced roughly ARD): This means "pride" but can be used in a negative sense to imply "loss of pride" or "humiliation," which are consequences of dishonor. This word might work better depending on the context.

The best choice will depend on the specific context in which you're using the word. If you can provide the sentence or situation where you need the word, I can help you choose the most appropriate translation.
