Explanatory note

  • Gaeilge

    long mouth, approach

    Titeann an bhéim ar an dara siolla i bhfuaimniú an lae inniu, agus toisc go bhfuil -a- leanúnach le sonrú sa siolla seo sna foirmeacha scríofa tríd síos measaimid gur féidir glacadh leis mar fhuaimniú stairiúil freisin.

    Ainmfhocal firinscneach é béal nach mbeifí ag súil le séimhiú ina dhiaidh sa tuiseal ainmneach. Is cosúil gurb é an logthuiseal faoi ndear an séimhiú céanna (cf. bf Drom Fhada (#31930) (Lm 35)).

    Tá patrún béime difriúil ar fad ag bf Béalada (#27910) i Ráth Domhnaigh.
