Need help again

I know what yimach shmo vezichro means.
But sometimes Chaim says yimach shma? I think it's when he refers to many people.
Can you please write the entire sentence in plural.

My second question refers to Zecher tzadik livracha Hashem yikom damo, sometimes
Chaim says one word between tzadik and livracha and is sounds like kedosh?
So the entire sentence is Zecher tzadik 'kedosh' livracha Hashem yikom damo?
What does that mean?

Thanks for your help.

Shmo means "his name".  Shma means "her name".  Shmam means "their name".  The whole sentence in plural would be "Yemach shmam ve-zichram." (May their name and memory be obliterated).

You're right, he says "ve-kadosh" sometimes.  Kadosh means holy.  So the whole sentence translated would be "May the memory of the righteous and holy be immortalized.  May G-d avenge his blood."
Jeremiah 16:19 O LORD, my strength and my fortress, my refuge in time of distress, to you the nations will come from the ends of the earth and say, "Our fathers possessed nothing but false gods, worthless idols that did them no good."

Zechariah 8:23 This is what the LORD Almighty says: “In those days ten people from all languages and nations will take firm hold of one Jew by the hem of his robe and say, ‘Let us go with you, because we have heard that G-d is with you.’â€
