Explanatory note

Gaeilge

the pasture of the calves

Is é an bronnadh talún céanna atá sna trí iontrálacha 1576–1593 ach ní háirithe go bhfuil an litriú úd in ‘-aghe’ truaillithe ar fad. Tá sampla dá leithéid de mheascán le fáil freisin san fhianaise ón 16ú haois faoi bf Cluain na nGamhan (#41998) (UF). D’fhéadfadh sé gurbh ann do mhalairt ainm Cluain (na n)Gamhnach “pasture of (the) strippers, yearling calves” sa dá chás.

Talamh phortaigh atá sa chuid thoir den bhaile fearainn, le talamh mhaith san iardheisceart; is minic a fhaightear a leithéid de leagan amach i gcás cluain-ainmneacha (féach Ó Cearbhaill, Logainmneacha na hÉireann III).

Mionainmneacha ar an léarscáil:
Tá paiste beag eile de thalamh mhaith san oirthuaisceart mar a léirítear Clontowra House SO 25ʺ, Cassini 6ʺ (www.osi.ie, www.epa.ie). Faightear an litriú áitiúil ‘Clontoura’ sa 19ú haois (m.sh. Leinster Express 7 Deireadh Fómhair 1840). Réadú ar Cluain Teamhrach “pasture of (the) high place”, b’fhéidir?
