The national flower is the red rose
Try this for translations - if it is not detailed enough I can try to find you another one
[url="http://www.yourdictionary.com/languages/celtic.html"]Celtic Dictionary[/url]
PS once you have selected the language for translation, you need to click on 'lexicon' and choose which language you are translating from and to. ie if you choose welsh, click on lexicon and you have the option of translating from english to welsh, or welsh to english. You can then enter the word and click on translate
Good luck!

@Yshania: Hmm, I've already been through those dictionaries... All I need is a couple of phrases like "good night" and the numbers from 1 to 10.... Found some welsh and irish words....still haven't found any good scottish (gaelic) phrases...
Thanx for the help anyway....

@K a couple of Irish ones for ya!
Caille Mille Falte - Happy New Year! (pronounced calyer millyer folcha)
Slainte - Cheers! (pronounced slontchya)
Trust me to know the beer related ones
I can also give you a scottish one, but it is phonetic (not sure of spelling):
'Tis a brau brech moonlech nick the nuur - it is a bright moonlit night
Now whether this is Gaelic or Glaswegian is debatable...
Re welsh - ask Sleepy. He may remember from school as they still teach it as far as I am aware. A lot of Government documentation (such as passport application forms) are issued in english and welsh
