- Bhí an ghrian sa spéir ar feadh an lá ar fad, a soilsigh na réigiúin thuaidh gan trócaire. - The sun remained in the sky all day, mercilessly illuminating the northern regions. 
- Bhí an tsíoraíocht geal seo nádúrtha sa tundra Artach le linn an tsamhraidh, ach bhí an chompord teoranta. - This eternal brightness was natural in the Arctic tundra during the summer, but comfort was limited. 
- I measc na heagla ar shionnach sneachta nó béar bán uaireanta, bhí triúr daoine, Aoife, Cian, agus Niamh, ag tabhairt faoi fheachtas taighde uaillmhianach. - Amid the fear of an arctic fox or a polar bear at times, three people, Aoife, Cian, and Niamh, were undertaking an ambitious research expedition. 
- Bhí Aoife ar bís. - Aoife was excited. 
- Bhí sí ag súil le cruthúnas a bhailiú lena cuid teoiricí a fhíorú faoi athrú aeráide. - She was eager to gather evidence to confirm her theories on climate change. 
- Thuig sí go raibh seans ann go dtiocfadh clú agus cáil uirthi má éirigh lena turas. - She understood that there was a chance she might gain fame if her expedition succeeded. 
- Chonaic sí sna sonraí an cumas chun an domhain a athrú. - She saw in the data the potential to change the world. 
- Bhí Cian, ceannaire an turais, níos imníche. - Cian, the leader of the expedition, was more anxious. 
- Bhí sé cleachta leis an Artach, ach le déanaí, d'aithin sé an t-amhras é féin ann. - He was familiar with the Arctic, yet he recently recognized a growing doubt within himself. 
- Cé go raibh cuma eolach air, bhraith sé ualach an freagrachta anois. - Although he had an experienced demeanor, he now felt the weight of responsibility. 
- Niamh, an grianghrafadóir, ag iarracht an scéal foirfe a ghabháil. - Niamh, the photographer, was trying to capture the perfect story. 
- Bhí sí dírithe ar áilleacht agus uathúlacht na háite a ghabháil, fós bhí sí ag iarraidh a bheith mar chuid thábhachtach den fhoireann. - She was focused on capturing the beauty and uniqueness of the place, yet she also wanted to be a vital part of the team. 
- Bhí siad uile saothraithe ag na constaicí - an aimsir chlaon, an ghaoth chíochrach. - They were all worn down by the obstacles—the unpredictable weather, the biting wind. 
- Bhí sé deacair do Aoife na sonraí riachtanacha a bhailiú mar bhí na gálaí ag méadú, ag cur brú ar chorp agus ar mheabhair. - It was difficult for Aoife to collect the necessary data as the gales intensified, putting pressure on both body and mind. 
- Bhí ar Cian féachaint ar a fhoireann agus ceisteanna faoi sábháilteachas a chur air féin. - Cian had to keep an eye on his team and question their safety. 
- Nuair a bhuail an stoirm go hobann, bhí orthu foscadh a lorg go tapa. - When the storm hit suddenly, they had to quickly find shelter. 
- B’iontas an ghaoth agus an fharraigí sneachta, rud a chruthaigh imní agus teannas. - The wind and snowdrifts were astonishing, creating anxiety and tension. 
- Fan sa bhoth, d’éist siad leis an bhfuaim bheagán scanrúil taobh amuigh agus rinne siad machnamh ar a dtaobhanna. - Inside the hut, they listened to the somewhat frightening sounds outside and reflected on their situations. 
- Tar éis an stoirm, tháinig úrscéal éigin leo. - After the storm, they encountered a certain newness. 
- D’éirigh leo sonraí luachmhara a bhailiú, cé gur fágadh íseal aigne orthu. - They managed to gather valuable data, although they were left feeling emotionally drained. 
- Bhí ceannaireacht Cian á cheistiú aige féin. - Cian was questioning his own leadership. 
- D’fhoghlaim Aoife go raibh cothromaíocht ina cuid oibre riachtanach. - Aoife learned that balance was necessary in her work. 
- D’fhoghlaim Niamh go raibh an scéal fíorthábhachtach níos doimhne ná díreach íomhánna. - Niamh realized that the deeper story held more importance than just images. 
- Cé go raibh orthu dul i ngleic le mórán achrann, tháinig siad slán, lán le heagna nua agus físeanna don todhchaí. - Though they had to contend with many challenges, they emerged intact, brimming with new wisdom and visions for the future. 
- D'fhág an tundra iontaí nua orthu, iontais a bhí coimeádta i dtuairim an tsaoil. - The tundra had left them with new wonders, wonders preserved in their outlook on life.
