Explanatory note

  • Gaeilge

    the tillage-plot of the corn

    Tá sé le tuiscint as an bhfianaise stairiúil gurb é an guta láir /ə/ a bhí i ndeireadh an logainm seo ó cheart, foghar a chuirtí in úil le -a, -y-ow sa Bhéarla. Is dealraitheach gur tháinig an fuaimniú áitiúil faoi thionchar an litrithe seo -ow i ndeireadh na dála — ní dócha gur léiriú ar réadú arbha sa chanúint Ghaeilge atá in 2004 /kapˈnaroːə/. Cuir i gcás na leaganacha Béarla Carlow (#3195) (Ce), Aherlow (#67156) (), ar guta láir /ə/ a bhí i gceist le -ow an chéad lá.

    D’fhéadfadh sé gur foirm chalctha den tuiseal tabharthach nó logthuiseal a bhí sa chéad eilimint .i. ceapaigh — toisc nach bhfuil an chéad fhocal faoi bhéim an ghutha, ba dheacair ceapach agus ceapaigh a aithint óna cheile. Cf. bf Ceapach na hEorna (#27806).

    Suite le hais bf Doire Craith Rua (#28275). Cf. bf Doire Arbha (#27807).
