Explanatory note

  • Gaeilge

    Ní léir cad is brí don dara heilimint anseo, ach is léir ón bhfianaise (e.g., 'C.Trestrige', Inq.) nach é an focal Béarla 'treasure' atá ann ó cheart

  • English

    The meaning of the second element is unclear, but it is clear from the historical evidence (e.g., 'C.Trestrige', Inq.) that it is not the English word 'treasure'
