Explanatory note

  • Gaeilge

    the corner, nook of the holes

    Tabhair faoi deara nóta an Donnabhánaigh ‘poul and -naboul must be adopted in Leath Chuinn’ — is é a bhí i gceist aige an défhoghar (~/əu/) sna focail poll is na bpoll i gcanúint Ghaeilge an cheantair seo.

    Ach botún is ea Leath Choinn (.i. tuaisceart na hÉireann) anseo; Leath Mhogha (.i. deisceart na hÉireann) a mheas sé a scríobh gan aon amhras. Féach nótaí eile aige faoi chaighdeánú na bhfoirmeacha béarlaithe, e.g. ‘I fear we must adopt darg and sometimes darrig [< dearg] in Leath Mhogha’ agus é ag míniú an litrithe Bhéarla Clondarrig < bf Cluain Dearg (La 12) (#28420), agus an nóta eolais ‘-lea [< liath] made general in Leath Chuinn’ murab ionann is -leagh a bhí oiriúnach in bf Raheenleagh < An Ráithín Liath (La 35) (#27886).
