"a Cheit mo charaid" means "Kate my friend"
Anam can be a given name or a surname. It is of Arabic origin and it means "blessed" [1].
You pronounce charade as 'shaarade'. - There is no English word 'charaid' .
It is the word for "friend" but the C is modified from the original "Caraid". "Standard" Irish uses "cara" but Scottish Gaelic and Galway Irish use "caraid".
soul
A friend
Better spelled m'anamchara some want this to mean 'soulmate' because it literally mean 'soul-friend' however in Irish the meaning is 'spiritual adviser', 'confessor' or 'chaplain'.The Scottish Gaelic version Anam-charaid means 'bosom friend' or 'soul-friend'. 'A man or woman who says the death-blessing over a dying person'.If you want to say soulmate in Irish fíorghrá(true-love) is probably more accurate.
In Irish Gaeilge: my friend is mo chara; your friend is do chara.In Scottish Gàidhlig: mo charaid, do charaid.
"Solas na bhFlaitheas dá anam uasal" means "The light of heaven on his noble soul"
