   Here are the phonetics for:

   Thank you: Guh rev mah agg utt

   I can’t find the pronunciation of the other two, but, here are some other choices.

   I would like a glass of water: Ba mhaith liom gloinne uisce “bah wah ly-um glinne-eh ish-geh”

   or

   I would like a glass of lemonade: Ba mhaith liom gloinne liomainéide. “bah wah ly-um glinne-eh lim-un-ay-dje”

   Here’s another you might find useful:
   Cá bhfuil leithreas na bhféar? “kah will LEH-riss na vahr” – Where is the Men’s Room?

   Hope that helps.
