Explanatory note

  • Gaeilge

    the town of An Bearnbhálach
    An Bearnbhálach — ón sloinne de Bearnbhál (< de Bernevale)
    Is struchtúr an-chomónta i gCo. na Mí é an téarma lonnaíochta Angla-Normannach -tún (-town ní ba dhéanaí) á cháiliú le hainm pearsanta nó le sloinne. Is é an focal Gaeilge a fhreagraíonn do -town i logainmeacha den chineál sin ná baile, agus rinneadh roinnt mhaith de na logainmneacha Béarla seo a ghaelú ar an múnla baile + ainm. Féach na tagairtí stairiúla seo a leanas: ‘Barnardston’ (Inq. Car. I), ‘Barnewellstowne’ (1655c) Down Survey, Baile Bhearneallaigh Ainmleabhar, scríofa le peann luaidhe (1836); cf. An Bearnabhalach Annála Ríochta Éireann 1466; genelach Bearnbhálach Leabhar Mór na nGenealach, Dubhaltach Mac Fhirbhisigh (1660c)
