COUNCIL'S    PREFACE. 


THIS  Dictionary  of  the  modern  Irish  language,  with 
explanations  in  English,  is  the  outcome  of  a  project 
conceived  a  few  years  ago  by  the  members  of  the 
Council  of  the  Irish  Texts  Society.  On  the  initiation 
of  Mr.  G.  A.  Greene,  M.A.,  then  Vice-Chairman  of  the 
Council,  they  decided  to  compile,  with  the  assistance  of 
Irish  speakers  and  scholars  throughout  Ireland  and 
Great  Britain,  and  under  the  direction  of  competent 
Editors,  a  small  Irish-English  Pocket  Dictionary  for  the 
use  of  students  of  the  modern  tongue.  As  a  foundation 
for  this  work,  about  12,000  words  were  collected  from 
existing  glossaries,  from  the  spoken  language  and  from 
modern  writings,  and  sorted  into  slip  form.  The 
Editors  who  were  asked  to  carry  out  the  task  of  editing 
this  material,  Father  O'Leary  and  Mr.  David  Corny  n 
and,  at  a  later  stage,  Mr.  John  MacNeill,  found  them- 
selves, through  the  pressure  of  other  work,  unable  to 
fulfil  their  intention,  and  the  help  of  Father  Dinneen 
was  eventually  secured. 

In  carrying  out  his  views  as  Editor,  Father  Dinneen 
found  it  necessary  to  make  many  alterations  on  the 
slips  handed  to  him,  involving  labour  which  would  not 
have  been  incurred  had  he  been  appointed  in  the  first 
instance.  Indeed,  Father  Dinneen  has  so  amended  and 
expanded  the  fragmentary  materials  submitted  to  him, 
that  the  present  work  may  be  regarded  as  practically 
his  creation,  and  the  Council  gladly  acknowledges  its 


iv  COUNCIL'S  PREFACE. 

indebtedness  to  him  for  bis  severe  and  patriotic  labours 
in  bringing  the  work  to  a  satisfactory  conclusion. 

The  members  of  the  Council  wish  to  add  their  own 
sincere  thanks  to  those  of  the  Editor  to  all  those 
gentlemen  who  have  assisted  the  undertaking,  either  by 
reading  proofs,  or  by  the  compilation  of  lists  of  local 
words,  or  by  personal  assistance  rendered  in  different 
ways  to  the  Editor.  The  names  of  those  who  have 
given  financial  aid  will  be  found  at  the  end  of  the 
volume.  These  marks  of  kindness  and  interest  in  the 
work  have  been  of  the  greatest  service,  and  have 
afforded  much  encouragement  both  to  the  Council  and 
to  the  Editor.

EDITOR'S    PREFACE. 


THE  study  of  the  Modern  Irish  Language,  which  has 
received  such  an  impetus  in  recent  years,  has  been 
greatly  hampered  by  the  want  of  a  convenient  lexicon. 
Nothing  but  the  urgent  necessity  that  existed  for 
such  a  lexicon  could  have  induced  me  to  abandon  more 
congenial  studies  and  devote  my  energies  to  the 
development  and  completion  of  the  work  so  laudably 
undertaken  by  the  Council  of  the  Irish  Texts  Society. 
As  I  proceeded  with  the  revision  of  the  material  supplied 
me  the  work  grew  imperceptibly  under  my  hands.  In 
preparing  the  work,  I  went  through  the  whole  of  Peter 
O'Connell's  MS.  Dictionary,  and  also,  though  more 
rapidly,  through  the  MS.  Dictionary  compiled  by 
O'Naughton.  The  Gaelic  Journal  and  the  principal 
modern  published  texts  were  also  laid  under  contribution, 
as  well  as  several  lists  of  words  received  from  various 
parts  of  the  country  Not  the  least  valuable  part  of  the 
work  is  what  I  was  able  to  remember  from  the  days  of 
my  childhood,  the  rich  vocabulary  employed  by  my 
father  and  mother  and  the  inhabitants  of  my  native 
Sliabh  Luachra,  the  snatches  of  song,  of  story,  of 
proverb,  the  allusions  and  rhymes  and  exclamations 
which  mingled  with  their  conversation,  as  well  as  the 
precise  and  accurate  use  of  phrase  and  idiom  which 
distinguished  them. 

In  spite  of  many  defects,  it  is  claimed   for  this  work 
that  it  contains  a  larger  number  of  words  used  in  the 


vi  EDITOR'S   PREFACE. 

living  Irish  language  and  in  the  more  modern  written 
compositions  than  any  Irish  Dictionary  yet  published ; 
that  it  gives  the  various  words  fuller  grammatical 
treatment ;  that  it  explains  them  more  in  detail  and  with 
greater  precision  and  accuracy ;  that  it  gives  a  fuller 
account  of  local  usage  and  pronunciation  ;  that  it  treats 
more  fully  the  more  important  words  which  form  the 
basis  of  the  main  idioms  that  constitute  the  core  of  the 
language ;  that  it  gives  a  greater  number  of  peculiarly 
poetical  expressions ;  a  fuller  list  of  technical  words  and 
a  more  copious  supply  of  examples  drawn  from  the 
living  speech  of  the  people ;  that  it  has  a  more  abundant 
list  of  references  to  modeVn  standard  works;  that  it 
deals  more  exhaustively  and  with  fuller  illustration  with 
the  various  particles  whose  uses  and  functions  are 
calculated  to  puzzle  the  student.  It  is  claimed  that  the 
book  gives  a  fairly  accurate  explanation  in  English  of 
the  main  stream  of  words,  idioms  and  forms  that 
constitute  the  Modern  Irish  Language.  Absolute 
completeness,  either  in  the  list  of  words  or  in  the 
idioms,  is  not  claimed,  the  time  and  space  limits  and 
other  circumstances  affecting  the  production  of  the  work 
rendering  such  completeness  impossible.  In  the 
insertion  of  compound  words,  which  form  an  important 
factor  in  the  language,  space  had  to  be  economized. 

It  is  obvious  that  in  an  unsettled  language  like  Irish, 
which  has  not  been  cultivated  to  any  extent  since  the 
use  of  print  became  general,  many  orthographical 
difficulties  present  themselves  to  the  lexicographer. 
Complete  uniformity  of  spelling  is  certainly  a  great 
desideratum.  Indeed,  it  is  impossible  to  conceive  a 
flourishing  literature  in  an  age  of  printing  like  the 
present  without  a  uniform  orthography  of  some  kind 


EDITORS    PREFACE.  vii 

The  science  of  grammar  becomes  a  mockery  where  there 
is  not  some  show  of  uniformity  in  the  written  forms  of 
the  words,  and  students  of  the  language  are  disheartened 
by  an  unsettled  and  ever  varying  orthography.  The 
circumstance  that  the  language  has  been  growing  apace, 
as  all  languages  grow,  for  the  last  couple  of  hundred 
years,  without  in  many  parts  of  the  country  the  check 
of  a  written  or  printed  literature,  has  resulted  in  its 
forming  itself  into  two  or  three  more  or  less  clearly 
defined  dialects  which  differ  from  one  another  in  several 
points.  The  Irish  spoken  in  the  Extreme  North  of 
Ireland  differs  from  that  spoken  in  Munster,  and  that 
spoken  in  Connaught  differs  from  both.  The  Irish  of 
South  Connaught  approaches  that  of  Munster,  while 
that  of  North  Connaught  resembles  that  of  Ulster.  As 
regards  the  orthography  employed,  perhaps  the  only 
item  that  will  seem  somewhat  radical  is  the  uniform  use 
of  pc,  fp,  pc,  in  preference  to  pg,  pt>,  px>,  respectively, 
but  especially  the  use  of  p c  for  pg.  On  this  point  it 
may  be  observed  that  these  sets  of  letter-combinations 
in  general  follow  the  same  law,  and  that  it  is  desirable 
to  adopt  a  uniform  system.  In  our  books  and  dic- 
tionaries there  is  great  confusion  between  the 
combinations  fc  and  pg,  and  the  time  seemed  to  have 
come  for  writing  uniformly  one  or  the  other.  The 
question  was,  which  should  be  selected.  The  selection 
of  pc  is  only  the  natural  lexicographical  evolution. 
O'Naughton,  the  author  of  our  earliest  modern  dic- 
tionary (finished  1727),  writes  pc  for  the  most  part,  and 
devotes  only  a  few  pages  to  words  beginning  with  pg. 
O'Brien  (1767)  states  in  his  dictionary  that  pc  and  pj; 
are  absolutely  identical,  and  that  words  spelled  with  pc 
will  not  be  repeated  under  pg.  O'Reilly  made  much 


viii  EDITOR'S   PREFACE. 

the  same  observation,  while  Peter  O'Connell  (1826), 
whose  work  is  most  laborious,  systematic,  and  com- 
prehensive, writes  fc  in,  every  case.  Of  the  living 
authorities  who  were  consulted  on  this  question  opinion 
was  divided.  I  may  mention  that  Dr.  Staridish  Hayes 
O'Grady,  Professor  Strachan,  and  Dr.  Joyce,  approved 
of  the  exclusive  use  of  pc,  while  Father  Peter  O'Leary, 
Mr.  Bergin,  Mr.  Lloyd,  and  others,  favoured  pg.  There 
can  be  no  question,  of  course,  that  p^  is  far  more 
common  in  modern  manuscripts,  and  up  to  a  recent 
date  at  least  was  more  common  in  books.  As  regards 
the  sound  of  the  language  used  at  the  present  day 
opinion  also  differs,  some  maintaining  that  the  sound 
alter  p  is  5,  and  others  that  it  is  c.  I  think  that  the 
sound  is  in  many  cases  pc,  and  in  most  other  cases 
approaches  nearer  to  pc  than  to  p£.  It  seems  to  me 
that  in  words  like  pceAl,  pceirh,  pcitling,  where  pc  is 
followed  by  a  slender  vowel,  the  p  is  more  affected  than 
the  c,  the  p  becomes  pti  rather  than  c  5.  This  pti  sound 
of  p,  I  believe,  makes  many  think  that  a  g-sound  and 
not  a  c-sound  is  heard.  In  words  like  pcoit,  to  my  ear 
at  least,  the  sound  is  c.  With  regard  to  plural  forms 
like  pAipci-oe,  which  some  now  write  p.Aipci,and  pfVACxM-oe, 
which  they  write  pp^c^i,  only  the  longer  form  is  given 
in  these  pages.  That  form  is  given  as  being  the  best 
established,  though  it  is  undoubtedly  cumbrous  and 
awkward  to  a  degree.  Both  forms  would  have  been 
given  except  that  it  seemed  a  needless  waste  of  space  to 
do  so,  and  hence  the  exclusion  of  the  shorter  form  is 
not  to  be  regarded  as  prejudicing  its  claims.  There  can 
be  no  doubt  that  the  tendency  will  always  be  in  the 
direction  of  retrenching  unsounded  letters,  and  making 
the  spelling  square  with  the  pronunciation.  But  the 


EDITOR'S    PREFACE.  ix 

process  must  be  gradual  and,  as  it  were,  imperceptible. 
The  dipthong  6A  has  been  used  throughout  instead  of 
eu.  I  have  followed  Peter  O'Connell  in  writing  -i-6e.ACc 
or  -.Ai-oeAcc  as  the  termination  of  abstract  nouns,  thus 
cpom.Ai'be.ACC,  not  cju)inui$e.dcc,  though  the  verb  is 
written  cfomuigitn. 

The  diphthong  eo  and  not  e6  is  written  throughout 
except  in  a  few  cases,  and  triphthongs  are  not  in  general 
accented.  The  diphthong  C.A  is  used  in  preference  to 
10  in  unaccented  syllables,  thus  6ifie^nn  not  6if\ionn. 
It  has  been  found  convenient  for  lexicographical  order 
to  observe  the  c<Aot  te  c^ot  law  even  in  compounds, 
though  there  are  some  instances  of  departure  from  it, 
But  it  should  be  noted  that  the  observance  of  this  law 
is  not  intended  to  prejudice  the  pronunciation.  Words 
like  leit-f  c6Al,  teit-ce^nn  are  largely  but  not  universally 
pronounced  as  if  written  le^t-pce-At  and  le.At-ce.Ann  ; 
thus  we  say  T>eif-t>e.Al.AC  and  not  Tje,Ap-t>e.AtAC,  etc. 
Though  many  hints  regarding  the  pronunciation  of 
words  are  scattered  through  the  book,  it  was  found 
impossible  to  treat  the  pronunciation  of  each  word  in  a 
systematic  manner,  without  unduly  enlarging  the  work. 

The  more  important  verbals  are  given  a  separate 
heading  ;  sometimes  they  have  uses  distinct  from  those 
of  the  corresponding  verbs.  The  verbs  are  given  under 
their  first  singular  indicative,  as  this  arrangement  is 
generally  adopted  in  modern  vocabularies.  The  un- 
settled state  of  orthography  of  the  language  often 
necessitated  the  repetition  of  the  same  word  under 
different  forms,  and  recourse  was  had  to  phonetic 
spelling  when  the  origin  or  etymology  of  the  word  was 
uncertain. 

An  effort  has  been  made,  as  far  as  the  limits  of  the 


X  EDITOR'S   PREFACE. 

work  permitted,  to  give  examples  of  the  principal 
idioms  that  involve  the  prepositions  and  other  important 
words,  but  it  is  obvious  that  there  are  many  idioms 
depending  on  the  collocation  of  words  which  can  be 
learned  only  by  practice. 

The  treatment  of  local  words,  some  of  which  are  of 
very  doubtful  genuineness,  was  a  matter  of  some 
anxiety.  In  some  parts  of  the  country  certain  English 
words  have  got  an  extraordinary  twist,  and  in  the 
mouths  of  Irish  speakers  pass  for  genuine  Irish  words. 
Moreover,  words  that  are  really  Irish  are  sometimes 
very  much  corrupted  locally,  and  the  corrupted  forms 
are  of  doubtful  advantage  to  a  lexicon.  The  local  use 
of  words,  however,  when  properly  ascertained,  is  of 
great  assistance  in  determining  their  origin  and 
meaning. 

A  word  may  be  said  about  modern  loan  words. 
They  are  practically  all  taken  immediately  from  the 
English,  though  many  are  loan  words  even  in  English. 
Some  have  been  introduced  with  scarcely  any  change 
of  pronunciation,  but  with  a  somewhat  altered  or 
extended  meaning.  Thus  p c6iineifi  is  from  schemer,  but 
is  used  in  a  peculiar  way  in  Irish ;  p 6jvc  is  from  sort,  but 
not  identical  in  use  with  the  English  word.  Many 
English  words  get  an  Irish  terminal  form  as  C|\UCA  from 
crook,  and  the  termination  -&\\,  of  the  verbal  noun  is 
often  added  to  English  verbs — ^5  cenToe-dil,  tending, 
and  the  like.  Of  forms  like  these,  some  have  got  a 
footing  in  the  language,  while  others,  as  the  one  just 
quoted,  must  be  regarded  as  barbarous. 

With  regard  to  the  general  question  of  the  insertion 
of  loan  words  in  a  dictionary  or  their  use  in  the  spoken 
and  written  language,  it  is  to  be  said  that  words  that 


EDITOR'S  PREFACE.  xi 

ar«  established  in  the  written  language,  being  used  by 
good  authors,  or  words  in  everyday  conversational  use, 
should  find  a  place  in  a  dictionary,  from  whatever  source 
they  may  be  derived.  The  lexicographer  may  deplore 
the  introduction  of  loan  words,  but  he  is  bound  to 
recognise  their  existence.  Of  course,  words  not  well 
established  or  not  widely  used,  have  not  the  same  claim 
to  recognition.  In  the  following  pages  I  have  in  general 
given  those  loan  words  which  have  a  footing  in  the 
spoken  or  written  language,  especially  when  they  have 
acquired  a  new  shade  of  meaning.  In  writing  the 
language,  words  only  recently  borrowed  and  for  which 
there  are  Irish  equivalents,  should  be  sparingly  used. 
It  is  otherwise  with  words  that  have  already  a  life  of  a 
couple  of  hundred  years  in  the  language.  Every  tongue 
borrows  from  other  tongues,  and  it  is  a  sign  of  health 
and  vigour  when  a  language  can  assimilate  a  crop  of 
foreign  words  and  reduce  them  to  subjection  by  the 
rigorous  application  of  its  own  syntax  and  of  its  own 
inflexional  forms. 

Want  of  space  prevented  my  treating  of  the  derivation 
of  the  bulk  of  the  words  in  the  dictionary,  or  of  tracing 
their  relationship  to  words  in  kindred  tongues.  It  need 
scarcely  be  stated  here  that  modern  Irish  is  substantially 
the  same  language  as  Scotch  Gaelic  and  as  Manx,  that 
it  bears  to  the  Welsh  and  Breton  languages  a  kinship 
similar  to  that  which  exists  between  modern  English 
and  modern  German,  that  it  is  a  development  of  a 
language  which  was  cognate  to  the  earlier  forms  of  the 
great  family  of  languages  spoken  and  written  in  modern 
Europe,  that  though  its  vocabulary  has  been  consider- 
ably influenced  by  Latin  within  historic  times,  and  by 
English  within  the  last  three  centuries,  it  has  preserved 


xii  EDITOR'S  PREFACE. 

its  own  syntax  and  its  own  characteristic  inflexional 
system  practically  untampered  with  even  to  this  day. 
Its  syntactical  and  inflexional  systems  have,  indeed, 
been  subject  to  a  development  similar  to  the  develop- 
ment which  takes  place  in  the  successive  stages  of  every 
living  and  cultivated  speech,  but  neither  its  syntax  nor 
its  inflexional  system  has  been  influenced  to  any  great 
extent  by  neighbour  tongues. 

I  owe  a  debt  of  gratitude  to  my  friend,  Mr.  John  J. 
O'Kelly,  for  the  tireless  energy  which  he  devoted  to 
the  work  from  the  outset.  His  extensive  knowledge 
of  the  living  language  rendered  his  co-operation 
particularly  valuable. 

My  friend,  Mr.  J.  H.  Lloyd,  looked  over  all  the  MS. 
and  read  the  proofs  carefully,  and  the  work  owes  much 
to  his  extensive  knowledge  of  local  forms  and  his 
critical  acumen. 

The  following  gentlemen,  all  of  whom  are  well  skilled 
in  the  living  language,  kindly  looked  over  the  proofs 
and  noted  local  usages,  etc. : — Messrs.  John  J.  O'Kelly, 
P.O'Shea  (Glengarriff),  P.  J.'O'Shea  ("Conan  Maol"), 
J.  C.  Ward  (Killybegs),  J.  Craig,  J.  Rogers  (Barrow-in- 
Furness),  T.  Concannon,  R.  A.  Foley,  M.  Breathnach. 
Messrs.  J.  J.  Doyle  and  M.  O'Malley  looked  over  a 
portion  of  the  proofs.  Special  mention  should  be  made 
of  Mr.  Richard  Foley's  keen  interest  in  the  work  from 
the  beginning,  and  of  the  zeal  with  which  he  sought 
out  and  recorded  local  usages. 

Among  those  who  helped  by  supplying  lists  oi 
words  I  may  mention  Rev.  M.  M'Grath,  St.  Mary's, 
Rathmines  ;  Messrs.  D.  O'Callaghan  (Aran),  O'Donnell 
(Newport),  O'Doherty  (Cruit  Island),  R.  A.  Foley,  John 
J.  O'Kelly,  J.  C.  Ward  (Killybegs),  Seamus  O'Kelly,

(Belfast),  M.  O'Brien  ( Bally  vourney),  D.  D.  Murphy 
(Valentia),  T.  Hayes,  P.  O'Daly.  Dr.  J.  P.  Henry  also 
took  a  great  interest  in  the  v*  ork  all  through  its  progress, 
and  furnished  useful  lists  of  local  words. 

To  Miss  Eleanor  Hull,  Hon.  Sec.  of  the  Irish  Texts 
Society,  who  took  a  keen  personal  interest  in  the  work 
from  the  beginning,  I  am  indebted  for  much  sympathetic 
encouragement  and  many  useful  suggestions. 

I  wish  to  record  my  appreciation  of  the  kindness  I 
received  from  Mr.  J.  J.  MacSweeney  and  assistants  of 
the  Royal  Irish  Academy,  Mr.  Lyster  and  assistants  of 
the  National  Library  of  Ireland,  Mr.  De  Burgh,  Mr. 
Hall  and  assistants  of  Trinity  College  Library. 

The  labour  of  seeing  the  work  through  the  press  was 
considerably  lightened  by  the  intelligence  and  efficiency 
displayed  by  the  staff  of  Messrs.  Sealy,  Bryers  and 
Walker. 

Although  this  work  was  laid  on  my  shoulders  quite 
unexpectedly,  it  is  curious  to  recall  that  the  production 
of  an  Irish  Dictionary  was  one  of  the  dreams  of  my 
boyhood.  If  the  realization  of  that  dream  be  not  as 
splendid  as  the  original  conception,  it  is  some  compen- 
sation to  reflect  that  the  work,  in  spite  of  many 
imperfections,  will  be  useful  to  thousands  of  students, 
and  will  help  on  the  work  of  cultivating  the  rich  and 
vigorous,  but  sadly  neglected,  language  of  the  Gael.

v.  tr. — verb  transitive. 

After  nouns,  the  genitive  singular  and  nominative  plural  are  given  ; 
after  verbs  (which  are  given  in  the  J  st  person  singular,  indicative  mood), 
the  verbal  is  given  ;  after  adjectives,  the  dative  singular  feminine,  which 
is  also  in  general  the  same  as  the  comparative  and  superlative,  is  given  ; 
many  adjectives,  from  the  nature  of  the  case,  are  not  used  in  the  com- 
parative or  superlative,  but  are  nevertheless  declined  in  the  positive 
degree ;  after  compound  nouns,  in  most  cases,  the  genitive  and  plural 
are  not  given  when  they  are  identical  with  those  of  the  terminal 
simple  nouns. 

The  general  rule  followed  in  setting  down  the  inflectional  termina- 
tion after  the  words  is  to  repeat  the  last  letter  of  the  invariable  portion 
of  the  word,  thus  bpontiroiji,  -OJIA,  -oifinJe,  signifies  that  the  genitive 
case  of  bftonnroift  is  btiormtojid,  and  its  nominative  plural  is  bf.orm- 
c6iftix>e ;  where,  however,  the  inflexional  termination  is  purely  an  addi- 
tion to  the  noun,  the  last  letter  is  generally  not  repeated,  thus  pu.dc,  -A, 
signifies  that  p«AU4  is  the  genitive  case  of  pi  AC. 


A^US 


A  (Ailm),  the  first  letter  of  the 
Modern  Irish  Alphabet. 

A,  inter}.,  prefixed  to  voc.  case, 
often  slurred  over  in  pronuncia- 
tion ;  sometimes  its  place  is 
supplied  by  an  apostrophe, 
sometimes  it  is  simply  omitted. 

A,  weakened  form  of  the  prep. 
and  verbal  prefix  t>o  (or  •oe),  as 
A  x>ic  o|im=-oo  (t>e)  •oic  oj(m, 
wanting  to  me  ;  •out  A  OAite  = 
•out  loo'n  (or  t>o)  bAite,  going 
home;  A  itos=-oo  (x>e)  ctos 
or  •oon  (•oen)  ctog,  of  the  clock,

of  helping  particle  to  some

ference to  1  in  all  modern  MSS. 
At  present  1  is  more  in  favour  in 
printed  Irish,  though  A  repre- 
sents the  sound  more  closely. 
In  the  earlier  MSS.  A  is  used 
instead  of  1  bsforo  consonants 
followed  by  broad  vowels),  in, 
into.  See  1.

'tlUAItt       A       CAItllg       ,A.  =  'nUA1f1 

CAinis  A.,  when  A.  came.  The 
rel.  prn.  in  noin.  or  ace.  caae 
does  not  require  any  equivalent 
in  Irish,  bat  this  particle  is 
often  used  where  the  rel.  would 
occur. 

A,  rel,  prn.,  eclipses,  but  becomes 
AJI  before  past  tenses,  aspirating 
in  active,  and  causing  no  change 
in  consonants  but  prefixing  h  to 
vowels  in  passive  voice.  (1)  All 
who,  all  which,  all  whom,  all

with  neg.,  no  one,  nobody  ;  Aon

anything  ;  with  neg.,  nothing  ; 
Aon  tiAiji,  Aon  tiAiji  AriiAin,  once, 
once  upon  a  time  ;  A^  Aon,  toge- 
ther; mAfi  Aon,  along  with, 
together  with  ;  5  AC  Aon,  every 
one.  Aon  is  sometimes  accented, 
and  forms  one  word  with  the 
following  nouns,  as  :  biotnAft 
AjiAon  A|t  Aon-rcoit,  we  both 
attended  the  same  school ;  corii- 
tiAC  Aon-pif.,  single  combat ;  but 
it  is  not  accented  in  phrases  like 
ni  hAon  riiAiceAr  X>UIT:  beit  AJ 
CAinnc,  there  is  no  use  in  your 
talk  ;  ni'l  AJAITI  ACC  Aon  fcitt,- 
1115  AtriAin,  1  have  but  a  single 
shilling,  and  should  then  be 
regarded  as  a  separate  word. 
The  accentuation  of  Aon  takes 

K'ace  when  emphasis  is  to  be 
id  on  the  singleness,  unity,  or 
identity  of  the  idea  conveyed  by 
the  following  word ;  thus,  ni't 
Aon  bpij  teif  An  bpocAt  fAin, 
that  word  has  no  meaning  ;  but 
Aom-bjiij  if  eAx*  ACA  teif  An 
•OA  •pocA'L,  both  words  have  one 
and  the  same  meaning.  In  the 
first  of  these  two  sentences  Aon 
is  not  emphasised,  and  should 


not  form  one  word  with  bjiij;. 
If  the  word  Atru\m  follow  in  the 
sentence  it  sometimes  takes  the 
emphasis  off  Aon.  Aon  was  in 
the  16th  century,  and  is  in 
modern  times,  often  written  eAn, 
and  in  compounds  Aom  becomes 
em.  An  objection  to  these 
forms  is  this,  that  frequently  in 
poetry  Aon  has  to  be  pronounced 
Aom  (with  broad  n),  which  is  a 
recognised  sound  of  AO  in  Con. 
and  U. ;  but  the  spelling  eAn 
does  not  lend  itself  to  that 
sound.

of  a  woman  in  a  folk-tale.  A 
woman  had  a  vast  quantity  of 
wool,  flax,  etc.,  to  spin,  and  was 
at  her  wits'  end  to  find  time  to 
do  it,  when  a  strange  woman 
entered  her  house,  and,  on  learn- 
ing her  perplexity,  offered  to 
take  away  the  wool  and  flax, 
and  return  them  in  the  shape 
of  cloth,  but  would  keep  them 
herself  in  case  the  owner  of  the 
flax  and  wool  did  not  remember 
her  name  when  she  returned. 
She  departed,  taking  with  her 
the  flax  and  wool,  and  the  other 
kept  repeating  the  name  Siftte 

f«Aip;te,  which  she  gave  her. 
fter  some  days  she  quite  for- 
got the  name,  and  remained  for 


weeks  in  great  distress,  as  she 
believed  she  had  now  lost  her 
yarn  for  ever.  One  day  as  she 
wandered  by  some  lonely  rath 
she  heard  the  sound  as  of  a 
woman  spinning.  As  she  spun 
she  sang  —

"Did  that  woman  know  that

rejoiced  to  hear  the  long-lost 
name,  and  kept  assiduously  re- 
peating it  till  the  owner  of  it 
returned  with  the  cloth.  She 
welcomed  the  visitor  by  name, 
saying—

to    which    the    other    replied 
angrily,  and,  leaving  the  cloth 
behind  her,  vanished.

and  when  Irish  is  written  in 
Roman  characters  it  is  very  com- 
monly so  used ;  it  is  written 
after  the  letter  to  be  aspirated, 
thus,  cije  =  cijhe ;  h-  is  pre- 
fixed by  the  article  to  all  plural 
nouns  beginning  with  a  vowel, 
except  in  the  genitive  case,  when 
it  prefixes  ti- ;  h-  is  prefixed  by 
the  possessive  prn.,  A,  her,  to 
nouns  beginning  with  a  vowel ; 
h-  is  also  often  prefixed  for 
euphony  to  the  second  of  two 
words,  one  ending  and  the  other 
beginning  with  a  vowel. 

1l'  for  t,  thy  (before  vowels).

PARADIGMS  OF  THE  IRREGULAR  VERBS 


GENERAL  REMARKS. 

THE  dependent  form  of  the  verb  is  that  used  in  the  imperative  mood 
and  after  tii,  not;  An,  interrog.  part. ;  nAc,  interrog.  neg.  part.:  50, 
that  ;  CA,  where  ;  mutiA,  unless  ;  •OA,  it",  and  tho  relative  govemed  by  a 
preposition.  In  these  verbs  in  some  tenses  the  independent  or  «'• 
form  is  distinct  from  the  dependent  form.  Thus,  A'ceijiim,  I  say,  but  ni 
AbjiAim,  I  do  not  say  ;  DeAjiA-o,  I  will  give,  but  ni  ciubfiAt),  I  will  m>t 
give;  CA  AijijeAt)  AgAm,  I  have  money,  but  An  opuil  AijijeAt)  AJAC  ? 
have  you  money  ?  The  tendency  of  the  modern  development  of  the 
language  is  to  break  down  the  distinction  between  the  two  sets  of  forms 
and  use  one  form  in  all  cases.  Indeed  the  perfection  with  which  this 
distinction  is  observed  may  furnish  a  rough  test  of  the  purity  and 
strength  of  the  vernacular  idiom  in  any  district.  The  generation  which 
has  just  passed  away  observed  this  distinction  more  scrupulously  than 
the  present.  Thus,  I  remember  old  people  say  beAfiAT)  or  ft£  AfiAiu  rn6 
-OU1C,  I  will  give  you  a  shilling,  now  one  hoars  generally  CAD- 
fcillin5  -ouic.  In  West  Kerry  good  speakers  now  say  nioji 
CUAIX),  while  in  East  Kerry  the  proper  form  ni  ^BA^AI^O  (•6eACA«-6)  is 
retained.  The  verb  A-oeifiim  has  a  strong  tendency  to  part  with  its 
dependent  forms,  especially  in  the  future  and  conditional.  One  hears 
ni  AbjiAim  (present),  but  also  commonly  ni  T>eAt1F<1T)  (future).  T)o-6eiptm 
still  holds  its  own  in  the  present  (-00  not  being  pronounced),  especially 
in  more  solemn  statements  as  (•oo)-beititm  mo  OAnnA  -6uic,  I  solemnly 
assure  you ;  but  cugAim  and  CADftAim  are  also  used.  A  perfect  furm 
•oo-beiji  (old  preterite,  -oo-beipc,  3rd  singular)  is  heard  in  K.  1 1  v. 

I  have  ventured  to  supply  a  1st  sing,  imperat.  which  is  peculiar  in 
its  use.  In  using  this  form  the  speaker  eonmi..,.  .-  m>t  him-rU'  hut 
another— he  commands  or  entreats  that  a  certain  aH  be  performed  (the 
verb  for  which  is  not  expressed),  which  will  ivtnlt  in  a  certain  conse- 
quence to  himself,  this  consequence  being  exjm  -^.d  l>\-  tlii*  1-t  u

form.  It  is  used  positively  or  negatively,  and  is  distinct  from  the  eubj. 
or  optat.,  thus:  A  6Ain-cneif  feirii,  f.AJAim  f.Ac  An  eAcc',  -jc.  (E.  R.). 
pAJAitn  here  is  equivalent  to  innif  T>Am  (or  CAtiAifi  t)Am).  tlA  -pAJAim 
Atinfo  A  iuitleA-6  cu,  which  is  equivalent  to  saying  imcij  Af  f  o  i  -ocjieo 
TIA  f.AJAX>  Atin  A  tuitteA-6  cu,  hence  the  speaker  does  not  command  or 
enta-eat  himself,  but  indirectly  he  commands  or  entreats  another.  r\& 
pAJAim  pocAl-  eite  Af  AC  is  equivalent  to  eif  c  or  ciumij.  Cf.  similar  uses 
of  clvnnitn,  f  eicirn,  -]c.  This  form  is  used  idiomatically  in  conditional 
sentences,  thus  :  AJI  tiAiflib  ConnAcc  if  bim  mi'  ceAnnpojtc,  let 
me  be  commander  over  the  nobles  of  Connaught,  that  is,  if  I  were  com  - 
mander,  etc.  This  1st  sing,  imper.  is  identical  in  form  with  the  1st  sing. 
indie,  (dependent),  and  this  use  of  it  is  not  found  in  Old  or  Middle  Irish. 

The  subjunctive  (optative)  is  still  widely  used  in  the  spoken  language  : 
CADAIH  tJAm  -oo  tAtii  no  50  fiAbmAVO  (  =  nibeitnro)  AJ  cfiiAl/t,  give  me 
your  hand  so  that  we  may  go  on  (start  on  our  journey)  (U.)  ;  "cAim 
bfteoix>ce";  "riiAife  50  jiA&Aijt";  "I  am  sick";  "indeed,  may  you  be  so"; 
"50  bpeicix)  -oo  ctAnn  -oeAlb  cu,"  "may  your  children  see  you  poor"; 
"jeobAif.  puAcc,"  "tiiAife  SOOFAJAX),"  "you  will  catch  cold,"  "indeed  I 
wish  I  may"  (a  strong  expression  of  improbability)  ;  CA&AIJI  -oAm  ACJI  AC- 
JO  tifASAT)  t>eoc,  give  me  a  vessel  that  I  may  get  a  drink  (subj.  use). 
The  past  subj.  is  identical  in  form  with  the  imperf.  indie. 

Only  a  few  verbs  such  as  ACAIHI,  cluinim,  have  preserved  the 
synthetic  form  of  the  2nd  pi.  pres.  indicative  in  the  sp.  I. 

The  participle  of  necessity  is  still  extensively  used  in  Af.  and  not  quite 
extinct  elsewhere  :  ni  mAOix>ce  fin  otic,  you  are  not  to  be  envied  on  that 
account  ;  ni't  fin  rnAoix>ce  oftc  in  Don.  =you  have  fully  earned  it,  you 
deserved  well  of  it.  Conntif  CAOI  ?  ttlAif  e,  ni  jeAfi  AncA  x>Am.  How 
are  you?  Well  I  have  no  reason  to  complain;  if  -oeAncA  jjunbe,  oran- 
dum  est,  we  must  pray,  cf.  AbAjtcA  (lit.  to  be  said  =  witty,  of  a  reply) 
(Con.).  -pAijce,  in  phr.  niA'f  p^15^e  "°AtTi,  if  it  is  the  case  that  I  am  to 
tobeleft(Z7.). 

There  appear  to  be  very  few  survivals  of  the  form  in  U.  ;  in  Don.  the 
ion-  p.  a.  is  now  very  commonty  employed  instead,  and,  as  in  the  case  of 
the  Don.  use  of  mAOfoce,  noted  above,  it  is  constructed  with  CA  and  not 
with  if,  e.g.,  CA  fe  inxjCAncA  A5AC  =  if  intaeAncA  "ouic  e,  ni'L  f6  lon- 
TriAOixice  ofic  =  ni  hiontiiAoi'oce  o|ic  e,  having  the  same  sense  as  the 
phrase  with  niAOi'oce  ;  "  ACC  Anoif  6  fi'lim  50  bpuil  cu  ioncAobcA  " 
(Don.  song);  cf.  Don.  construction  CA  f6  tjoilij  'F<\JAil  =  if  •oeACAifi  e 


P.  of  nee.  is  sometimes  distd.  from  past  part,  by  being  slender,  cuifice, 
part,  of  nee.  ;    CUJICA,  past  p.  ;  f  Aijce,  p.  nee.  ;    p.  AJCA,  p.  p.     But  in  M. 
=  p.  nee.  and  p.  p.,  etc.

DICTIONARY    FUND. 


The  Council  of  the  Irish  Texts  Society,  in  recording  the 
names  of  those  friends  of  the  Society  who  have  come  forward 
to  aid  the  work  of  publication  by  donations  or  by  contributing 
to  the  Guarantee  Fund,  wish  to  take  this  opportunity  of 
acknowledging  the  cordial  help  aud  encouragement  they  have 
received  from  many  friends,  throughout  the  whole  course  of 
the  undertaking.  The  interest  shewn  by  Irish  Students  and  by 
Irish  men  and  women  in  all  parts  of  the  world,  in  the  produc- 
tion of  this  Dictionary,  has  been  a  source  of  constant 
encouragement  to  all  in  any  way  engaged  in  pushing  forward 
the  work. 

In  raising  the  necessary  funds  the  Council  have  also  met 
with  much  sympathy.  They  wish  to  record  their  gratitude,  in 
a  special  manner,  to  three  friends  who  came  forward  at  a 
critical  moment  and  voluntarily  offered  loans  of  a  considerable 
amount.  These  are,  the  Hon.  Albinia  Brodrick,  who  gave  a 
loan  of  £200;  Mr.  John  P.  Boland,  M.P.,  and  Mr.  Johi 
Twigg,  who  each  contributed  a  loan  of  £100.  They  are  also 
specially  indebted  to  the  Most  Rev.  Dr.  Walsh,  Archbishop 
of  Dublin,  for  constant  proofs  of  interest  and  for  the  offer  of 
£20,  as  a  personal  contribution  to  the  work,  if  a  sum  of  £400 
could  be  raised  in  similar  amounts.  This  offer,  though  it  has 
not  realized  the  total  amount  contemplated  by  His  Grace,  has 
produced  the  considerable  sum  of  over  £177  paid  up,  and  £20 
promised.  The  fact  that  several  dioceses  made  effort*  to 
contribute  the  required  amount  is  interesting,  and  prove*  an 
extending  concern  for  the  advancement  of  Irish  studies. 

The  names  of  the  contributors  to  the  Loan  Guarantee  Fund
