Explanatory note

  • Gaeilge

    (oak-)wood of (the) pasture

    Talamh maith é seo a bhfuil portach mórthimpeall air (féach www.epa.ie; cf. Ó Cearbhaill, Logainmneacha na hÉireann III). Is minic doire-ainmneacha le fáil taobh le cluain-ainmneacha i gceantair phortaigh — agus is minic doirí ina n-oileáin i bportaigh faoi mar atá an láthair eaglasta Doire na bhFlann (#1403417) i dTiobraid Árann, mar shampla.
