Explanatory note

  • Gaeilge

    hill of (the) shallow depression, productive field
    loiste < losaid

    Is dócha gur athmhíniú faoi ndear an t-aistriúchán áitiúil ‘cnoc loiste, burned hill’ pl:AL (1836). Is cinnte go bhféadfadh loiscthe a fhorbairt go loiste sa chaint sa taobh seo tíre ach níl aon fhianaise chun a thaispeáint gurb in a tharla anseo. Tá an focal losaid, gin. u. loiste, coitianta i logainmneacha dheisceart Uladh.
