Am I on the right track for "Sheep need a shepherd"?
I'm not familiar with the "ní foláir" construction. GnaG mentions it only with a verbal noun construction, not with a "go" clause, but that doesn't necessarily mean that it's wrong. I suppose you could change it into a VN construction like Ní foláir do na caoirigh aoire a bheith acu
Ní foláir is very common in Munster, with a variant ní foláir nó. I'll make a longer post about this when I get the chance.
