Explanatory note

Gaeilge

ring-fort of the boundary

Ní cinnte bunús an cháilitheora.

Tagann an fhoirm is luaithe 1549 ‘Rakree’ leis na foirmeacha go léir ó lár an 17ú haois anuas agus le foirm an lae inniu freisin. Níl consan deiridh -n/-m le fáil ach i ngníomhais a dhéanann aithris ar cháipéisí a breacadh c. 1560–67. Seans gur litir thaibhsiúil í an -n seo. (D’fhéadfaí a thuairimiú go ndearnadh *Racrehÿ a mhíléamh mar *Racrehȳ an chéad lá agus gur scaoileadh an ‘nod’ bréige seo mar -yn (1567) agus -ym (1563) — cf. 1659 ‘Rathcrehy’.)

Bheadh dealramh le Ráth Críche “ring-fort of (the) boundary” más ea. Tá an baile fearainn seo in aice na teorann idir barúntachtaí an tSráidbhaile agus Port na hInse (.i. idir Laoighis agus cuid de dhúthaigh Ó bhFailghe). Cf. bf Cúil Chríche (#28491).
