Explanatory note

  • Gaeilge

    old oak-tree?

    Is cosúil gur traslitriú ar logainm de bhunús Gaeilge é derrig ar cuireadh an aidiacht Bhéarla old- roimhe. (Féach www.dil.ie s.v. daróc.)

    Ní heol dúinn aon áit eile anseo timpeall darb ainm *Daróg “oak-tree” a sheasfadh i gcodarsnacht leis seo, áfach. Tá samplaí eile againn de old- an Bhéarla a chailiú logainm Ghaeilge sa chontae seo, m.sh. bf Seanliath (#28821) sa cheantar seo, Oldborris < bf An tSeanbhuiríos (#27833) in Uí Fhairchealláin, Oldglass < bf An tSeanghlais (#27994) in Achadh Bhó.

    Ní heol dúinn ach an oiread aon tagairt d’ainm Gaeilge na reilige Burial Ground SO anseo.
