TO HIS ROYAL HIGHNESS,
Sir,
The many proofs of friendly attachment your Royal Highness has
given to Ireland, entitles you to the admiration and affection of all Irishmen.
This alone would be sufficient to bind me to you with every sentiment of esteem;
Language.
That your Royal Highness may long continue the Protector and
Patron of Science, and the ornament of your exalted Station is, and ever will be,

PREFACE.
The great utility of a knowledge of the Irish language to those who wish to give a satisfactory account of the
vernacular dialects and antiquities of most nations in Europe, has been confessed by Lhuyd, Bullet, Leibnitz,
and other learned foreigners ; and its absolute necessity to all who are desirous of becoming intimately acquainted
with the emigrations, history, laws, manners, customs, religion, and learning of the early inhabitantsof Ireland,
is so obvious, as to preclude the necessity of impressing it on the mind by any species of argument To
strangers it is therefore interesting ; but to the natives of Ireland, the preservation of this beautiful and expres
sive language should be of the utmost importance. In the several hundreds of ancient Irish manuscripts which
still survive the erosive tooth of time, or the devastating hands of barbarous invaders, are to be found the ve
nerable memorials of the piety, learning, wisdom, valour, and achievements of our ancestors. la the composi
tions of our Senachies, in our annals, and other historical documents, the migrations, contentions, settlements,
and domestic polity of the primitive inhabitantsof the country, are related with at least as much fidelity, and
deserving of as much credit, as the early records of any other nation. In our laws will be seen strong proofs of the
civilization of out forefathers : in them provision is made for the protectiou of property, the reward of virtue
-and merit, the prevention of crime, and the punishment of vice. In our medical books it will be found that
our physicians had as much knowledge of the human frame, and as much skill in the treatment of disease, as
the physicians of any other nation at the same period. And in the works of our bards may be discovered the
grandest and most pathetic descriptions, the most sublime flights of fancy, and the most romantic tales of
luxuriant imagination, displayed in elegant and appropriate language. These, however, for a number ofyears
have been a locked up treasure to all who have not made Irish MSS. a particular study ; and even to the studious,
much labour and difficulty have occurred before a knowledge of them could be obtained ; owing to the want of a
Dictionary, to explain the meanings of the many thousands of words to be found in them, that no longer exist
in the living language of the country.
That a great portion of our language should be nearly forgotten at the present day, will not be much won
dered at, when it is considered, that tor some hundreds of years it had been the policy of Government to use
every mean in their power to eradicate our language, and to deprive our people of every opportunity to ob
tain education- For this absurd purpose our books were destroyed, acts of parliament passed, school
masters persecuted, and where laws or severity were found ineffectual, recourse was had to ridicule, to shame
the people out of the most energetic, and, as Sir W. Temple has since described it, the most original and
unmixed language now remaining in Europe. But even ridicule, that powerful engine over weak minds, has
failed in producing the desired effect ; and the Irish language still exists a living memorial of the refinement to
which our ancestors had attained, and of the encouragement given by them to learning and learned men. This
silly policy is at length laid aside ; the reign of prejudice has expired, and is in a great measure succeeded by
candid inquiry and rational investigation.
To elucidate our antiquities and bring fairly before the public the claims of ancient Ireland to a literary cha
racter, superior to that of neighbouring nations, the pens of some highly talented geniuses, have of late years
been employed. Amongst those to whom Ireland is indebted for the rescuing of her history and language from
obscurity, the Earl of Ross, and the late General Valiancy, hold the most distinguished places. By thelabours
of these gentlemen, and others skilled in our ancient tongue, the Irish language is proved to be nearly the
same as the Phoenician, and many lights have been thrown upon the early periods of our history.
Independently of the claims which this language has upon the general scholar for consideration, and upon
the descendants of the aborigines for protection, if merits the attention of the Divine, the Lawyer, the Physi
cian, and of all those who have to converse with the people, whose living and only language it is. It is the only
mdium through which instruction can be conveyed to at least four fifths of the people of Ireland. The Divine
therefore, who neglects this language, should consider how far he is competent to discharge the duty he owes to
those souls committed to his care. The great utility of this language to the Lawyer, is proved frequently in the
year. In every county, at every sessions, trials occur in which prisoners or witnesses can be heard only through
the medium of an interpreter, probably but ill qualified for such an office, and who, by the mistake of a single
word in the evidence, may cause the acquittal of a murderer, or the murder of an innocent. The consideration
of a possibility of such an occurrence, has caused Sir W. C. Smith, Bart, one of the Barons of the Exchequer,
to study the Irish language, in which he has made great progress, and set a praise-worthy example to other gen
tlemen of the Bar. To the Physician several cases mu>t have occurred where his scientific skill was baflled by
his ignorance of the language in which only his patient could clearly point out the nature of his complaint. And
every person who has dealings in the country, has daily proofs of the inconvenience arising from a want of the
language of the people with whom he has to converse.
To remove the impediments which heretofore stood in the way of learning our language, I have compiled the
Worknowofferedtothepublic,and have spared neither labour nor expense in making it as perfect asl could, tho'
with very small encouragement given by my countrymen. Indeed in the articlesof pecuniary or literary aid, ffiare
but few obligations to confess. Of those from whom I have received more than half price, or in some few cases
more than the full price of a single copy, I have none to name but the Earl of Charlemont, Baron Smith, the Rev.
E. O'Reilly, principal of the Academy at Navan, and Sir W. Betham, King at Arms. Of literary assistance towards
completing my Dictionary, I have none to acknowledge to the living, except to my invaluable friend, the Rev- M. P.

PREFACE.
pointed out to me the most of the Hebrew words which are found to agree with the Irish in the course of my Book.
But if my acknowledgments to the living be few, I am ready to confess my obligations to the dead. My col
lection of words from ancient glossaries, vocabularies, and other documents, is copious, and several hundreds
of those words which I have added to the collections published in the Dictionaries of my predecessors,
were collected, with a view to publication, by the late Mr. William Haliday, Junior, of Arran-quay. That
young gentleman, after acquiring a knowledge of the ancient and modern languages usually taught in schools,
enriched his mind with the acquisition of several of the Eastern languages, and made himself so perfect a master
of the language of his native country, that he was enabled to publish a Grammar of it, in Dublin, in the year,
1808, under the fictitious signature of E. O'C. and would have published a Dictionary of the same language,
if death had not put a stop to his career, at the early age of 23 . To the liberality of Doctor Llnngton, the pre
sent Provost, and to the Fellows of Trinity College, who gave me the privilege of their library, I am indebted
for a "Teat number of words to be found in the body of my Dictionary, besides the principal part of the words
now in common use, that are to be found in my Supplement. These I collected from a large MS. Dictionary
in the possession of the College, compiled by Teig O'Nachten for publication in the year 1739. When I was
making my collection it never occurred to me, that the words daily used in common conversation, and familiar to
myself! mHit have been omitted by former Compilers ; and taking it for granted that they were not omitted, I ne
ver examined further into the matter, but proceeded with the printing of my Work, and had nearly finished it
before I perceived the omission. As I was desirous to make my Book as tull and perfect as I could, I determined
on publishing a Supplement, and to insert in it such words from O'Nachten's Dictionary as had been omitted,
and a number of other words that I had collected since my beginning to pnnt, and which of course could not
have been inserted in their proper places. Upon every occasion when 1 found it necessary to consult the
MSS in the Library, I have experienced the most obliging attention from the Librarians, the Rev. Doctors
Barret and Wilson, for which they have my sincere thanks.
As mv Work was intended to answer in some degree for a Dictionary of the Scottish Gaelic, as well as the
Irish I have retained in it several words from Shaw's Dictionary, and a number of others which I collected from
,nn lern Scottish publications. Some of these I have marked Sh. and Sc. and others that are not so marked will
Zdiscovered by their orthography. It is to be observed, however, that all those wrds so marked are not con-
TSa to the Scottish dialect ; many of them I have since found in O'Nachten's Dictionary, to which Shaw had
^cess and in other modem books, particularly those written by Authors of the North ot Ireland
Im the course of the Dictionary some words will be found differently spelled, as ban, a bird ; Scriobhadvir,
writer &c. ; which again occur at Fun and Sgrobhadir. This is unnecessary to those who are acquainted
with Irish books, but to learners it can not fail to be useful. , , . ,
In the compilation of my Grammar I have found great assistance from those of my predecessors, and have
l Undftd so much of their rules with my own observations, as 1 conceive may be useful in giving a general idea
f Tri h Grammar In the Grammars of the Rev. Doctors Stewart, Neilson and O'Brien, and those of the late
Mr Halidav and my friend Mr. Ly nch, much has been done to reduce the grammatical rules of O'Mulloy,
M'Curtin and Vallancv to a standard ; but still much remains to be done. It was not the work of a few indivi
du of one nation or'one century, that established the grammar rules of the Greek and Latin languages upon
1 nrinanent basis; it has been the work of ages, and to which the learned of various nations have contributed.
Jf such was the case with dead languages, perfection is not to be expected from a few essays on the Irish, which
i% a livine language, and therefore subi ect to mutation.
mv Grammar I have ventured to deviate a little from those who have gone before me, with what degree of
mnrietv it is for others to decide. In taking the initial changes of nouns as the rule by which to discriminate
?l > declensions, my friend Doctor O'Brien has gone before me ; but I have made one inflexion more than he
h because as the initial changes of nouns beginning with consonants naturally divides them into two declen-
' so the variation from the primary to the aspirate form to which nouns beginning with vowels are subject,
hv dVsthem into two declensions also. In giving but one conjugation to Irish verbs, I differ from Doc-
t r Stuart and O'Brien ; but I do so upon the authority of all our ancient MSS. in whicn the first person
ngular, Indicative Mood, active voice, always terminates in aim or m, and the initial changes are the.sanie,
whether a broad or a slender vowel be the last in the root.
Those that are acquainted with the Press, will be inclined to excuse a few typographical errors which do not
tpriallv affect the sense, and of which description are, I hope, the most of the errors to be found uncorrected
mv Work If it shall be found that I have omitted much, let it be remembered that I have added a
1 pat deal and if my Work is not so full or perfect as was expected, still it contains upwards of 20,000 words
more than are contained in. former Irish Lexicons, and consequently so much the nearer to perfection.
I n what I have done, my principal design was to render a service to my country, by giving facility to the study
w " orimeval history, and to the learning of a language, venerable for its antiquity, necessary to the philo-
? er of every nation, and dear every genuine Insuman. If the Volume I now offer to the Public shall

(From the Irish-English Dictionary, published in Paris, 1768, by the Bight Btv. Doctor
O'Brien, . C. Bishop of Cloync.J
THE letter A, is the first in the alphabets of almost all languages, though anciont historians inform us, as
O'Flaherty, upon the authority of the book of Lecan, observes, that the old Irish, like the ^Ethiopians or
Abyssines, began their alphabet with the letter B, and therefore the Irish called it Beith-luis-nion, from its three
first letters, B. L. N. However, in imitation of other learned languages, and particularly the Latin, whose
alphabet was first introduced into Ireland by the first Missionaries of the Christian Religion, the modern Irish
thought proper to begin their alphabet with A. This letter is one of the five vowels (called cuig gttthaidlie in
Irish,) and is pronounced broad like aw in Knglish. It is distinguished by the appellative of Ailm, which seems
to signify strictly and properly, the palm-tree, called palma nobilis, and therefore deserves precedency ; although
Mr. O'Flahertv, notwithstanding the alfinityof the words Ailm and Palma, interprets it the fir-ate, lat. abies. It is
not unlike the Hebrew Aleph, and the Chaldcean i>nd Greek Alpha. By our grammarians it is ranked among the leathan-
guthaidhe, or broad vowels ; and in our old M?S. we find a, o, and a, written indfferently one for the other, as in
agas, ocas, agus. And, as also in dear, deor, deur, a tear, &c. Thus among the Eolians we find written for A,
as strotos for Stratos an army, ono for ano, meaning, over or above, and the Latins have imitated them, saying domo,
from the Greek damo, to tame, or subdue; as also Fovius for Fabius, according to Festus, and forreus for
farreas.
A was sometimes written for the ea of the moderns, as dagh for deagh, good, &c. It begins all those diphthongs,
which in Irish are called na ceithre hamharchoill, or the four aphthongs, viz. ao, aoi, ai, ae. Note that ao (which
isa modern aphthong, as is the modern triphthong aoi, and is substituted instead of ae, and oe, used by our
old writers,) is pronounced broad like long, or the Latin , in the words saoghal, an age, lat. smculum, andaos,
age, lat. atas. The triphthong aoi, is pronounced like in the English words been, keen, &c. but more nearly
like ui in the Irish for which it has been substitated by the moderns. It is an inflection of ao, and formed directly
from it, as from maol bald, comes maoil, and maoile, bald and baldness ; saor, daor, produce also s ioir, daoir,
&c. so that the Irish triphthong in general, is formed by adding an to the diphthong, and thus serves to express,
the genitive case and other inflections of the same word, as aoi from ao ; eoi from eo ; iai from ; iui from iu ;
and uai fromiwr. Analogous to the genius of the Irish language in this manner of inflecting the diphthongs inte
triphthongs, it is observable in the Ionic inflections of nouns, that they frequently use oio for ou in the genitive
case ; and nothing more common in the Greek language than a vowel extraordinary, and sometimes two, added in
the beginning, middle or end of words, that they may sound the sweeter, or that the verse may flow the more
pompous and musical. Thus for one example amongst many, the Phoenician tribe who are called Gephyrxi in the
Latin edition of Herodotus are written Gephyraioi in his Greek original, 1. 5. c. 57, 58. So that if we would
compare both languages together, we should find a much greater number of such inflections and variations in the
Greek than in the Irish. And they are the less puzzling in the latter, as the tbree vowels are all pronounced with
one breath and in one syllable, and as no vowel but the i is added to the diphthong to form the triphthong.
But this singularity seems peculiar to the Irish language, that no two or three vowels joined to each other in the
same word, can form two different syllables. For which reason our bards or versificators who frequently wanted to
stretch out words by multiplying their syllables according to the exigency of their rhymes, devised the method of
throwing in between the two vowels an adventitious consonant (generally a d or g, aspirated by A,) in order to
stretch and divide the two vowels into two different syllables. And as this consonant was quite foreign to the
natural frame of the word, so it entirely corrupted and disguised its radical formation and structure. It must be
confessed this method has the sanction of a respectable antiquity, and is countenanced by examples, if not pre
cedents, not only in the Welsh or old British language, but even in the Greek, wherein the lolick digamma,
(which is the V consonant and was pronounced by the/Eolics, as it is still by the Germans like F,) was inserted
when two vowels met together. For example, the Jaunes was pronounced Javones, or rather Jafones, and Jaon
changed it into Javon, &c. vid. Stillingfleet origin, p. 560. Thus also an adventitious d is inserted between
two vowels in many Latin words, both to distinguish the syllables and prevent a hiatus, particularly in compounds
whose first part consists of the iterative particle re, while the following part begins with a vowel, as in the words
redargue, redeo redigo, redimo, redintegratio, &c. But certain it is notwithstanding these examples or precedents,
that this rule together with another devised in like manner by our bards or rhymers, I mean that which is called
cool le caol, agus leathan le leathan, have been woefully destructive to the original and radical purity of the Irish
language. This latter rule (much of a more modern invention than the former, for our old MSS. shew no regard
to it,) imports and prescribes that the two vowels thus forming, or contributing to form, two diflerent syllables by
the
the interposition of a consonant, whether such a consonant be adventitious to, er originally inseparable from the
radical formation of the word, should both be of the same denomination or class of either broad or small vowels;
and this without any regard to the primitive elementary structure of the word. So that if the vowel preceding
the consonant should originally happeu to be of the class of broad vowels , , u, while the vowel following the
same consonant should be of the class of small vowels e, i, or vice versa; in that case the vowel preceding the
consonant being of a different class from that which follows it, must either be struck out entirely to make room for
a vowel of the same class with the following (for it is the vowel following, the consonant that commands the change
in the preceding, without being subjected to any in itself) or else another adventitious vowel must be piaced after
it of the same class with the subsequent.
I shall instance only in two words amongst many others, both to illustrate those two rules by way of exemplification,
and to shew how prejudicial they naturally must have been to the primitive purity of the Irish language, by chang
ing, corrupting and metamorphosing a great number of its words from their original and radical structure. I shall
first exemplify in the Irish word Gall a Gaul, plural ' Gaul; which are the Celtic words upon which the Latin
words Gallus Galli, have been formed. Nothing more evident from the most ar>cient monuments of the Irish
nation, than that the national name of the first Celts who came to Ireland, (whether they arrived there immedi
ately from Gaul, or rather after remaining for some tract of time in the greater British Isle, as Mr. Lhuyd
gives good grounds to think) was Gall in the singular and Gaill in the plural ; and that their language was cal fed
Galic, or Gailic, though it is equally certain this same national name of (all, and Gaill, in the plural, was after
wards applied by the old natives to other colonies that followed these primitive Celt into that Island from different
parts of the Continent, and even to the English adventurers whom they called Clanna GmII, as well as Sasunuic ;
which must have proceeded both from their having forgot their own origin on account of the change Iii their
national name from Gaill into Gaidhil, fee. and also from the knowledge they traditionally preserved of the
Gaulish nation, of its great extent, as well as of its vicinity with the British Isles; all which circumstances occa
sioned that the generality of the old Irish Celts and Celtiberians, who probably were the hrst planters of Ireland,
imagined that the strangers who came amongst them from time to time, whether immediately from Britain or other
wise, must have originally proceeded from Saul. Now the Irish bards or rhymers wanting to stretch out this mono
syllable Gaill into two syllables to serve the exigency of their verses and rhythmical measures, have tiret formed
it into Gaidhill agreeably to the former of the two rules now mentioned, and when the second rule caol Ic caol, &c.
took place, it required that an / or an E should be thrown in before the consonant D, by which means it turned
put Gaidhill or Gatdhil instead of its original simple formation Gaill. So likewise the word Galic w Gailic mean
ing the Celtibernian language was changed into < laidltilic or Guedkilic, genit. Gatdhilicc or Gaedhilge, from which
last spelling it has been changed by our modern grammarians into Gaod/iailic, genit. Guodhailge, by the unnatural
substitution of ao, instead of <r, or a, of the antients, absolutely ordering that we should pronounce their ao just as
we do oe in the Latin word Clum.
Guidll, another writing of the same word, meaning the Irish peuple, and Gnidhilic their language, are found in
some Irish manuscripts of good antiquity, from which the moderns, by abusively substituting aoi, instead of vi,
though carrying another sound, have turned tUeir words into Gaoidhil and Gaodhilic genit: Gaoidhilge, which is
the gothic and uncouth shape, in which, to conform with the modern orthography, 1 must let it stand in the
frontispiece of my Dictionary. I have just hinted thai Guidhil and Guidhilic is not to be counted a modern manner
ef writing these words ; which truth is confirmed by Welsh manuscripts of respectable antiquity, wherein the
Irish are called Guydkil and sometimes Guydilod, and their language Guidhilec. Apropos to this writing of the
Welsh, I cannot but observe by the bye, that it hence appears this old nation must have always judged the
primitive Irish and the Gauls to be originally one and the same people, inasmuch as we find in Mr. Lhuvd's
ArchaHogia (compart. Etymol. pag. 23. col. 3.) that the VVelsh or old Britons interpreted in their language the
Latin word Gallus or Gallicus by Guyihiltg, a word w hich is plainly and literally of the same formation of those
whereby thev distinguish the Irish people and their language. Before I have done with the words Gaill and
Galic, Gailic, or Gaelic, I think it pertinent to remark that notwithstanding the complex and inform shape of the
words Gaidhil, Gaedhil, Gaoidhil, and Gaidkilic, Gaedhilic, and Guoidhilic, into which they have been changed,
?'et the originals from which they were derived are still preserved in their primitive simplicity by the veiy
ormation of these latter words, which is very nearly the same as that of the former, inasmuch as the adventitious
letters dh are not pronounced, and serve only to distinguish the syllables : which shews that this was the only
purpose they were first thrown in for. We should not in the mean time forget that it is to this change made
in the words Gaill and Galic, doubtless by our heathenish bards, who inserted the letter d, that we owe the
important discovery necessarily reserved to their successors who embraced Christianity, of those illustrious
personages Gadtl and Gadcitu ; the former an usher under that royal School-master, Pheniusa Farsa, King of
Scythia, in his famous school on the plain of Sennaar, where this Gadtl invented the Irish alphabet, and tho
Gadelian language, so called, as it is pretended from his name; and the latter a grandson of that king by hie
son JViu/i, married to Scot*, daughter to Pharaoh Cingri, as our bards call him, instead of Cinchrcs, king of
Egypt, under whose reign they tell us and our Gadelus were cotemporaries and great friends, and fron
this Gadelus our learned bards gravely assure us that the Irish derive their name of Gadelians, who, they tell
us were also called Scots from his wife the Egyptian princess Scota. This discovery I have said was necessarily
reserved to our christian bards, as their heathenish predecessors most certainly could have no notion of the plain
of Sennaar, of Pharaoh, or of Moses ; objects nut to be known but from the holy Scriptures, or some w i ting*
derived from them, such as those of Josephus, Philo, &c. never known to the Irish bards before Christianity.
I have remarked in another work, not as yet published, that our christian bards did not lose much time in availing
themselves of the sacred history to iiauie this story, inasmuch as we find it word for word in the scholiast on the
life uf St. Patrick by Fiach, bishop of Sloipte, one of that Saint's earliest disciples ; which scholiast the learned
and judicious Colgan places towards the end of the sixth century. This date is much earlier than that of the
manuscript<:alled Leabhar Gubhala, or the book of conquests, wherein our tory now mentioned is embellished
with further circumstances.
The other word I mean to produce as a remarkable example and proof of the alteration of the primitive and radical
frame of many words of the Irish language, caused by the above described rules aud other innovations of ou*
modern copists and rhymers, as well as by the corruption proceeding from vulgar pronunciation, to which
indeed all languages have been subject (even the Latin, witness the words nudiustertius, iridi, postridie, &c.)
the word I say I mean to exemplify in, is Bliadhain or Bliaghain, a year, lat. annus. The original formation or
construction of this word was, Bel-ain, or Bul-ain, i e, the circle of Belus or of the Sun. Ain or amn in Irish,
signifies a great circle, as its diminutive aiime, vulgarly fainne, means a small circle or a ring, vid. ain, ainn,
cmne, infra ; and Bel or Beal was the Assyrian, Chaldsean or Phajnician name of the true God, while the
patriarchal religion wa* generally observed ; and very properly, as it signifies Dominus or Dominator in Latin.
This name was afterwards attributed to the Sun, when those oriental nations generally forgot, or willingly swerved
from the worship of the true God, and adored that planet as their chief deity. See Gutlerus origines mundi,
lib. 1. cap. 9. SchediusdeDiis Germ. . 7. Tiriuus in cap. 2. Osee Y. I t. It is very certain that the primitive
Irish observed this idolatrous worship of the Sun under the name of Bl or Bai, whatever part of the world they
derived it from, as appears very manifestly by those religious fires they lighted with great solemnity on May-day ;
a fact which is evidently proved by the very name whereby they distinguished that day, which is still called and
known by no other name than that of L Beal linne, i e, t he day of the fire of Bel or Belus. This solemnity they
celebrated in honor of the Sun, under the name of Beal, on this first day of their summer, when the benign
influence of that planet begins to restore new life to both the animal and vegetable world in most parts of our
hemisphere.
Now lb s word Bel-ain being changed by the . vulgar pronunciation into Ble-ain and Bli-ain, in which position it
required the insertion of an aspirated d or g, consequently turned out Bliadhain or Bliaghain, according to the
-former of the two rules above explained, and then the latter rule of Leathan le lea!han to vindicate its right, to share
in the new creation of this word, threw in the vowel a before the adventitious consonant to agree with the
subsquente, so that the original word having thus received two adventitious letters besides the asp rate A, i
thereby metamorphosed from its original form Bel-ain to Bliadhain or Bliaghain, for it admits of both these
writings. I shall finish these remarks with Observing that the word Ain or Ainn (which is the latter part of the
compound word Bel-ain, signifying the great circle of Belus, i e, the solar circle or annual course of the Sun)
is the Celtic original upon which the Latin word Anus was formed, it was afterwards written Annus, for Quintilian
informs us that the ancients did not double their consonants. Varro assures us that the proper and original
signification of this word Anus or Annus is a circ or great circle, whose diminutive A au tus or Annulits signifies a
tmiall circle or ring. His words are nam ut parvi circuli unnuli, sic wagni dkeuantur unni* But the word annm
is now exalted to mean solely and properly the solar circle or annual course of the Sun, whilst Anus, its more
ancient wri ting, is degraded to signify no mote than the circular form of the podex. Vid. Littleton ad voces
Anus, Annus, Annulas. Other examples, to observe it by the bye, of words of an honorable meaning at first,
being afterwards degraded to -a dishonorable signification and vice versa, will be found in the following

is the second Letter of the Irish Alphabet, as well as of most other Alphabets ; it is the first consonant, and is called
a labial letter, because the lips are mostly used in the formation of it. In Irish Manuscripts of late ages it is
written for P, both b and p being made commutable one with the other, as in the words dubh black, doibh to
them, 6, it was, they write duph pa, &c. which is also the case with the Greeks- and Latins, for the formet
write bikros for pikros, amarus ; and the Latins wrote poplkola and publicla indifferently, and populus and
publiai; also scriptum, and not tcriblum from sciibo. By putting a tittle or point over this letter in Irish,
(which is a late invention, being not to be found in any old parchments,) it sounds like the Latin v consonant, as we
have no such letter in our alphabet, which is the case of the Greeks, though their or beta is often rendered in
Latin by <v, as Greek Barrhon, Latin Farro, Greek Birgilios, Latin Virgilius, Greek biote, Latin vita; Irish Beatha,
and when t'ttled, it sounds veatha, vita. The name of this consonant in Irish approaches much closer in sound and
letters to the Hebrew name of the said letter, than either the Chaldean Betba, or the Greek Beta, it bemg in Irish
Beith, and in Hebrew Beth. Beth signifies a house in Hebrew, and Both in Irish is a very common name for an open
house or tent. It is to be observed, that the Irish consonants, b, c, d, g,p, t, by a full-point or tittle set over any of
them, do thereby lose their simple strong sound, and pronounce after the manner of the Hebrew bh, ch, dh, gh,ph, th,
which are simply and genuinely aspirated ; on the other hand, it is to be particularly noticed, that the now men
tioned Hebrew consonants, by them called Begad-Kephat, memoria causa, by fixing &Dagesch or full-point in the
.middle of any of them, do thereby also lose their simple aspirate sound, and pronounce strong like the Irish
b, c, d, g, p, t, so that the addition of a full-point to any of those Irish consonan'., change it immediately into its
corresponding letter of the Hebrew; and again, the addition of a full-point to the above mentioned Hebrew
consonants, changes them into their corresponding letters of the Irish. By this kind of reciprocation between tho
Irish and Hebrew languages, the antiquityof the Irish, or Celtic, seemi to be sufficiently demonstrated : although it
must be confessed, that the using a full-point in either of the two languages is of a late invention, these consonants
being naturally wrote down, and the strong or aspirate pronunciation of them being left to the judgment of the
skilful readers, who, doubtless, wanted no such points to direct them ; thus the modern Spaniards, who use the i and
the t, indifferently for each other, pronounce the word biter to drink, as if it were written biver, Sac. as did also
the ancient Romans, ex. Hic se Bivo omnibus suis benefecit. And bidit for vidit, bixit for vixit, bcto for veto,
iolucrii for volugrit, Bendere for vender, .Ve. Vide Lhuyd. compar. Etymol. pag. 22,

This letter obtains the third place in the modern Irish Alphabet; as it does in the Latin, and other European Alpha-
bets. Our Grammarians distinguish it by the name of CM, which is the hazel-tree in Irish, Lat. Corylus, and so
every other letter of the Irish Alphabet is called by the name of some particular tree of the natural growth of the
country : for which reason the old Irish called their letters and writings Feudha, i. e. woods ; and so did the old
Romans call their literary compositions by the nam* of Sj/ha, when they wrote on leaves of trees, and tables of
wood * The Danes also called their Runics by the name of Bogstave, for the same reason and in the saiae sense. Vid.
Olaus Wormius de liter. Run. page 67. The, Irish or Coll, is ranked by our Grammarians among those consonants
they call bog-chonsoineadha, soft consonants: though it is to be noted that this letter invariably preserves a strong
sound, wheiever it stands in its simple and unaspirated state, whether in the beginning, middle, or end of a word:
so that of its own nature, it always carries the force of the Greek Kappa, or the English K, but when it is aspirated
by an h, subjoined to it, or a full point set over it, instead of the h, it then carries the soft, guttural or whistling
sound of the Greek Chi, or the Spanish X. >
Our Irish copyists have frequently substituted the letter G in the place of C; which substitution is indeed the more
natural, as they both may be regarded as letters of the same organ ; and yet this exchange was not always free from
abuse as it sometimes carried away the Irish words from their affinity with other languages, especially the Latin.
Thus, for Cabhar, Lat. Capra, a goat, they wrote Gabhar; for Camul, Lat. Camelas, a Camel, and metaphorically, a
simpleton, they wrote Gamut; for Deie, or Dac, Lat. Decern, they wrote Dag; for con orco, Lat. cum or , they
write gon, or go; for con a mbrSithribk, Lat. cumfratribus, they write gon a mbraithribh; for ngallaibh, i.e. con
gallaibh, Lat. cum Gallis, they write go n'gallaibh, &c. And, vice versa, our Grammarians have as frequently
substituted in the place of G, esteeming these two letters naturally conmutable with each other, like D and T, as
indeed they always were in most of the ancient languages. But it is particularly to be observed, that although the
letters and G usurp each other's places ; yet in the Irish language they never exchange sound or power, each
invariably preserving its own natural power and pronunciation wherever it appears. For is always a Kappa or ;
and G is as constantly a strong unguttural Gamma, excepting the case of their being aspirated by the immediate
subjoining of an h. This property seems peculiar to the Irish or Celtic amongst the old languages, since we see in
the oldes? draughts of the Hebrew and Greek letters, that the Gimel of the former and the Ganuna of the latter are
marked down, as having the force and pronunciation of either G or indifferently; which is likewise the case in
the Armenian, Ethiopian, and Coptic alphabets, as appears by the tables of Doctors Bernard and Morton. Thus
likewise do all the other letters of the Irish alphabet constantly preserve their respective force and power, without
usurping one another's pronunciation or function, as it happens in other languages ; in which often usurps that
of S, as in the Latin word Cicero, as does likewise T when immediately followed by the vowel i, and then by another
, vowel, as in the words Titius, Mauritius, usurpado, &c. So that if Lucan had to deal only with the Irish alphabet,
he would have had no room for the humorous quarrell and lawsuit he raised between the consonants of his
alphabet, for encroaching on one another, as those of most other alphabets frequently do, by usurping one anothers
function of sound and pronunciation. And this circumstance regarding the Irish alphabet is the more remarkable,
as its whole and primitive stock of letters, is but sixteen in number, the same as that of the first Roman, or Latin
alphabet, brought by Evandcr the Arcadian, which was the original Cadmean r Phenician set of letters -
municated to the Greeks. And yet our sixteen letters of the primitive Irish alphabet were sufficient for all the
essential purposes of language, everyone preserving its own sound or power, without usurping that of any other
letter. As to the h, it is only an aspirate in the Irish language, and never entered as a natural element into the
frame of any word; though, indeed, of late ages, it seems to have put on the appearence and function of a
letter, when used as a prefix to a word, that begins with a vowel, which happens only in words referred to females
or the feminine gender ; for in Irish we say ; a idhe, his face ; but as to the face of a woman, we must say ; a huiihe ;
in which tha h is a strong aspirate and carries such a force as it does in the Latin, heri, liodie ; the Greek, Itagios,
Heracleos, the French, hero, the English, host, &c. And as to the P, we shall in our remarks on that letter, alledge
some reasons which may seem to evince, that it did not originally belong to the Irish alphabet.
One remark more remains to be made on the letter C, which relates to the aspirate or guttural sound, (the same as in the
Greek cht) it is susceptible of at the beginning of a word ; a remark, which is equally applicable t-,tlw letter B, and
partly to other consonants of the Irish alphabet. In all the nominal words or nouns substantive of whatever gender
beginning with C, and bearing a possessive reference to persons, or things of the masculine gender, the letter C, is
aspirated ; but not so when they are referred to the feminine. Ex. a cheenn (masc.) his head ; a chos, his foot ;
(fem.) her head, a cos, her foot. So likewise in B, a bhuachail (masc.) his servant man ; a bheaa-sctdbha, (fem.)
his servant maid, a Bachail, her man servant, a bean scldbha her woman servant. But when those words, or any
other nominis, are taken absolutely, without reference to any thing, those of the feminine gender alone, are
aspirated in their initial letter, whether or B. Ex. an chos, the foot; an bhean-sclabha, the woman servant, an
Buachad, the man servant. So that this prefixing of the particle an before nouns substantue, is one method of
discovering their gender. But it does not hold good with regard to nouns beginning ith D or T.

Pp REMARKS
REMARKS ON THE LETTER D.
The letter D or Duir, which is so called from duir, the oak tree, is now the fourth letter of the Irish Alphabet, and ie
ranked by our Grammarians, among the cruadh-consoine, or hard consonants; but by adding an A, or fixing a full
point above it, it falls under the denomination of light consonants, called in Irish consoine ead-troma. In our old
Manuscripts D and T, are written indifferently ; as, carad or carat, a friend ; iad or iat, them, &c. And this indif
ference is common also to the Greeks and Latins; as, Gr. oude and oute, neque, &c. ; and Lat. haud and haut, re-
liquit and reliquid, quodannis and quotannis, &c. In the Greek language, the third rank of the mute consonants is
T, D, and Tli, the middle consonant D, respectively corresponding to T and Th. Now it is to be observed, that
in the Irish language, any word beginning with T, will, in its variations, admit both D and Th ; as, Tima, a lord,
Lat. Tyrannus, and Gr. Tyrannos ; a d'tiarna, their lord ; mo thiarna, my lord, and so on with every word, whose
initial letter is T. The Irish D corresponds with the Gr. Delta and the Lat. D ; as, I;-. Dta, God ; Gr. Zeus, accust.
Dia, Gr. Titeos; Lat. Deus. Ir. dearcadh, to see, from dearc, the eye; Gr. derco, to see. Ir. do, two ; Gr. and Lat.
duo. Ir, Dis, two persons ; Gr. Dis, Lat. Bis, twice. Ir. Dac or dag, mi deich, ten; Gr. deca. .and Lat. decern.
The Irish D also agrees with the Gr. Th, or Theta ; as, Ir. Doras, Ang. Sax, Door; Gr. Thuras, accust, plur.
This Irish letter agrees in like manner with the Hebrew Daleth or DA, which by putting a full point over it be
comes a D. (See the general remarki on the letter B.) Ir. Diris;, or Dirk; Lat. Dirig, to direct; Heb. Derech,
via, iter, and Perach, drexit viam, tetendit. Ir. Duillc and Duillo, the page of a book, Heb. Deleth, folium,
pagina libri. The Irish language is industriously censured by some critics for admitting a superfluous D or Dh in
the latter end of several words; but these censurers should consider that this redundancy of the letter D was for
merly observed in the Latin, of which we have a remarkable instance left us in Fabr. lss. Antiq; Expl. p. 427,
Neve in publicod neve m privatod nevextrad urbem de scnatuos seiUentiad, &c. And we find a near coincidence of that
redundancy in the Hebrew Language; for as in the infinite mood of several Irish verbs, such as fealladh, to deceive,
Lat. /allere, dearcadh, to see, Gr. derco, D and its aspirate dh are not pronounc ed ; thus in the Hebrew Raah, to see,
leah, to toil or labour, &c. The final letter He or h, is not pronounced, but like the Irish Dh, becomes a mute or
quiescent letter. Many other examples of redundancies both of consopants and vowels, as also of barbarous forms
of words in the old Latin tongue may be produced from Signor Fabretti's collections of ancient Roman Inscriptions
and other writings : an/I this barbarity of the Latin we may trace down to the time of the first Latin poets, such
as Ennius and Nsevius, nay even as far as Plautus, in whose time the Romans did not think themselves entitled to be
excluded out of the number of the barbarian nations; since this poet not only calls Nievius Poeta barbaras,
but also says of himself on occasion of his version of a piece of Greek into Latin, M. Atticus (for that wa-i his name,
Plautus being only a nick name) vertit barbar. Whence it appears that Festus Pompeius was well founded in saying
that anciently all nations excepting the Greeks were called barbarians ; but the proud Greeks should in gratitude have
excepted the Phenicians, from whom they had received the knowledge of letters, and the Egyptians, to whom they
owed their Theology and Mythology. And indeed the Latin may be justly looked upon as a mere barbarian Lan
guage, when it was written in such a style as appears in the few following lines, Sluom ea res consoleretur, iovsisent censuere
Pious V. oiwvorsei homines virei, atque rnulieres sacra nequisquam fecisse velet, neve inter ibei virei Pious duobus, mulieribus
Pious tribus adesse vlent, nisi de P. R. Urbani, Senatuosque sententiad ntci supra scriptum est H/iice utei in conventionid ex
deicatis ne minus trinum noundinum Senatuosque, &c. Fabr. ibid. pag. 427. These two samples of the old Latin are enough
to demonstrate, that the Language of the primitive Romans, mm h famed as they have been, was at least as much
charged with redundant consonants at the end of words, as the Irish is thought to be ; and if those who censure it
for such redundancies of consonants, did but look back and consider the kind of Jargon their ancestors spoke and wrote
about four or five hundred years since, and even to the end of Queen Elizabeth's reign, they could not but ac
knowledge it to be a much more uncouth and rude Language than the Irish ever hath been. Ins a well known fact
that the sons or grandsons of the chiefs and leaders of those English who adventured into Ireland on the expedition
in favour of the King of Leinster, and made settlements there under the protection of that Prince, became so
disgusted with their own native Language, that they utterly abandoned and forgot it, and spoke no other than the
Irish; insomuch that the English government judged it necessary to order an Act of Parliament by which the
English who settled in Ireland were strictly forbidden the use of the Irish Language under certain penalties. To all
which I shall add that those censurers of the Irish Language for a pretended redundancy of consonants, betray their
want of knowledge concerning the true marks of perfection and autiquity of Languages, of which marks the most
essential is thepreservation ofradical letters, which are properly the consonants ; and in this very point the learned Mr.
Lhuyd gives the Irish the preference of perfection before all otherdialects of the Celtic tongue, as may be seen in his
Archadogia, pag. 23, col. 1. But it is moreover to be observed, that in reality there are no redundant or superfluous
consonants in the words of the Irish Language, though there are some that are not properly radicals, originally
belonging tc the frame of the words they are found in. Of these non-radicals there are two sorts; the one consist
ing of consonants that are merely adventitious, of which there has been a good deal said in the remarks on the
letter A ; I mean those consonants that are thrown in between two vowels belonging to two different svllables. But
as those adventitious consonants have the sanction not only of antiquity, but also of examples in Greek and Latin,
and I dare say in most other ancient Languages, they are not to be counted superfluous; especially as they are o"
particular use in easing the voice by preventing a disagreeable hiatus. Another kind of adventitious consonants is
frequently found at the beginning of words, particularly when those words have a reference to persons or things,
DAG DAI
as in the words ; a ti doirne, their fists, ar n' dchas, our hope, a g' cinn, their heads, in which the consonants (n) and
(g) are naturally foreign to the words they are prefixed to, though the nature of the laaguage absolutely requires
their being prefixed in such circumstances. But the other sort of consonants which are not properly radicals, are
yet neither adventitious nor foreign to the nature of the words, but do rather necessarily arise trom the inflections of
nouns and verbs, and therefore cannot be redundant. Nor do those non-radical consonants clog the Language or
render it disagreeable in its use; inasmuch as they are mollified, or rendered entirely mute or quiescent by the
aspirite (h) excepting only the consonant brought in as an initial, which is always pronounced; but then it eclipses
the radical consonant to which it is prefixed; so that the word is pronounced as if that radical consonsnt had no
existence, though all radical initials are religiously preserved in the writing, for the sake of preserving the
original structure and propriety of the Language ; a method which that candid and learned Welshman, Mr. Lhuyd,
highly commends, and shews the abuses which the non-observance of it by ihe Welsh writers has occasioned in
their Language. See Archaeol, pag. 23, col. 1.

DUN 7 DUR
E is the fifth Letter of the Irish Alphabet, and the second of the five vowels, of the denomination of Caol, or small
vowels. It is sometimes short and sometimes long, and thus answers the Gr. Epsilon and Eta, as Capellus ingeniously
observes of the Latin. E vocalis, says he, duarum Gracarum vim possidet; nam ciim corripitur, Epsilon est, cum
producitor, Eta est. It is in Irish called Eibha; or Edha, from Eadha, the Aspen-tree, Latin, trai.ula, which is
commonly called Crann criot.'iach, and is not unlike the name of the Greek vowel Eta and the Heb. Heth. It is
commutable only with I. and is very often, but more especially in ancient manuscripts, written and used for I
indifferently, and we find this indifference common to the Latins, as Dit for Dei, keri for here, vespere and vesperi, cinis
and einer, impubet and impubis, omnis for omnes, from decern is formed undecim, fromento, premo is formed redimo and
comprimo. E is the prepositive vowel in the five Diphthongs and Tnpthongs called na cuig Hedd/Ma, or heabhadh,
or the five Ephthongs, viz. ea, eo, eoi, eu, ei, and of these the Hebrews have eu, as Heb. Scaleu, Lat. tranquillus,
b.c. But Gr. and Lat. have both ra. and ci, as Lat. Ara, hei and Gr. ra, Lat. bene. Gr. tido, Lat. video, Sic.

REMARKS ON THE LETTER F.
F is the sixth letter of the Irish Alphabet, and is called by our Grammarians Consoine lag, or a weak consonant. By
fixing a full point over it, or subjoining a., A, it loses a 1 force m the pronunc.afon, as: donfhear, or a lr ,s
pronounced don ear, or a ir, to the man? man. Afhile, his generosity, is pronounced : cile &c. it ,s called
/earn, from/ir, commonly femg. the elder-tree. Lat. abus I .. the same with the Hebrew.; because
the figure and sound of both letter, are very nearly the same. This letter agrees in many words with the Laim V
consonant, as : fear, a man, hence in the oblique and plur. fir, Latin true, Lat. Fwn, wino.
Latin, vinnm. Focal, a word, Lat. vocalis; feighil, a vigil, Lat. vigilia. It often.correspond.^w.h the Gr. phi *
ph.nfidh, pronounced /<^, a prophet, Gr. phatcs, and Lat. reto: feal and fula, dece.t. cheating, Gr phaulos,
Lat. vilis, Felga. a beech-tree, Gr. phg+ Lat. fagus &c When at.ttled or aspirated is prefixed to/, it is
pronounced like V consonant; as from fada, long, a lihfad, is pronounced, e vad; a binaire, is pronounced,
mute. It is evident, that the Greeks and Latins have also observed a close original affinity w.th regard to the
letters /, b, v. and ph; as b for , Lat. base for vas:, cibica for cvica. Ir. beam, a spit, Lat. veru; and again, c,
fori, as, for abeo, roban for , Ir. bo, vestas iox bestias ; and sometimes i for f, as *r* for finges a
Cicero relates, and Ir. * the bottom of any thing. Gr. benthos and Lat ./W. Ir. ow* a terrible sound Gr.
bremo, Lat. /^, to sound or rattle : and again / is used for *, as s. ilare for sibilare, which the French call
sifiler, nf vobis for ab vobis. Menee we commonly sav sue.o for sublero, &c. We nnd, that was anciently
used among the Greeks for ph, and Plutarch tells us, that the: Macedon.ans always said Bzhppon tor Pbhppm ;
and Festus says, that they used albon for alphon, Lat. album. Note, that in words begmn.ng with the letter If) it
is quite eclipsed and of no force in the pronunciation, when it happens by the course ot speech, that (d) (t)
<m) or bh is prefixed to it. Ex. d'feil, of flesh, d'fear, of or to a man, are pronounced demi, dear, c. T'/ear,
thy husband, t'fe, thy flesh, are pronounced tear, tcoil, mfear, mfeo, are pronounced mear, meoil, Sec.
Ar bh'fir, our men. ar bh'fearau, our land or ground, are pronounced, as if written ;dr bhr, or ar vir ; ar ikea-
ram, or r vearan. So that the initial (f) is quite eclipsed, and taken no notice ot in the pronunciation, though >t
always stands in the writing for preserving the radical frame ot tne word.

fOS FOS fO FOT
G is the seventh letter of the Irish Alphabet, and is ranked by our Grammarians in tbe number of heavy consonants*
called by the Irish Consoineadha troma, but when it i aspirated or marked with an (h) subjoined to it, it is counted
one of the light consonants, called Consoineadha, adrovia. In this aspirated state, (g) being the initial letter of
a word, is pronounced like y, in the English words, York, young, &c. or like the Spanish (i) consonant in the
word Jesus, Joseph; but (g) aspirated by a subjoined (h) in the middle or end of a word, is rendered quite qui
escent or suppressed in the pronunciation.
Thus the words Tighearna, a Lord, and Righ, a King, are pronounced Tierna and Ri. But ig) in its unaspirated and^
natural state has always the same strong power with the Greek Gamma. The very figure of the letter (g) in some
of our old parchments, is not essentially dissimilar to some of the cuts of the old Abrahamic and Phenician Gimel^
in the first alphabet or middle column of Dr. Bernard's table of old alphabets, published by Dr. Morton. The
Hebrews called this letter Gimel, we are assured by Grammarians, from its crooked figure, bearing some re
semblance to a camel, which in Hebrew is called Gamel or Gamal; and to observe it, by the by, Gamal, as well
as camul, is the Irish for a camel. In the Cadmean and Ionic alphabets, to b seea in the 8th column of Dr. Bernard's,
table, this letter (G) is called Gamla, which is but a variated writing of the Hebrew Gimel or Gamel, or the Syrian
Gomal, as the gamma of the less ancient Greeks is likewise but a different utterance of the Ionic word gamla.
It hath been observed in the remarks on the letter (C), that it is naturally commutable with (g), both letters being
of the same organ and nearly of the same power ; and hence in our old parchments, they are written indiiTerently
for each other, of which practice some examples have been cited. I cannot however but be of opinion, that this
indifference should be limited, and that the general and unlimited use of it should naturally be deemed abusivefor
the most ancient alphabets of the ilebiews, Pktnicians, Syrians and Greeks, have the gimel, and cap/t, or the gamma and
cappa, as two distinct letters of diffrent powers or functions, and consequently those letters are to be regarded as
two different radicals of words, in the original elementary formation of all dictions. The same indifference, or
interchangeable use of the letters (g) and (c) in the Latin tongue, and the latter being generally substituted in the
place of the former, appears from ancient Roman Inscriptions, and most particularly from that of the columna
Rostrata, erected in honour of Duillius the Consul, whereupon were engraved the words Macistratos, Leciones,
pucnando, Carthacinenses, copias, instead of Magistrates, Legiones, pugnando, Carthaginenses, From the man
ner of this inscription, some writers have concluded, that the letter (g) was not in the Roman alphabet,
nor used in the Latin tongue till after the first Punic war; and Plutarch informs us, it was brought in
by Sp. Carvilius, wherefore Dromedes calls it nova consona. But there is this other foundation forjudg
ing, that the Latins had the gamma or (g) from the beginning, as a quite different letter from the Cuppa ;
viz. that inasmuch as they received their alphabet from the Greeks, who had theirs fram the Phenicians ;
and as the Phenician alphabet hud always the gimel or (g) different from the caph or (C)pboth which different
letters were also from the beginning in the old Ionic alphabets, as appears by Dr. Bernard's 8th alphabet, column
yth, of his table it follows, that the Latins had also, from the beginning, both these letters with different power
or functions.
Nor do I believe it will ever appear, that the old Romans wrote cenus, ceneratio, cuudium, for genus, generatio, gaudium,
and other such words, which I cannot but think were always written with a gttmmaor (g) different from (C). The primi
tive Latin alphabet, as well as the old Ionic, contained the letter (K), orkappa, which served fora(C) as well as for a (K),
in the same manner as the Ionic gamla sei-ve.d for a (G) and a (C). But as the letter (K)was not agreeable to-thegenius of
the Latin tongue, to serve insteadof which the Latins changed the gammainto a (C), and then made aseparate letter of the
gammaor (g),whichthey removed into the seventh place, withafigui e or shape not much different from their (C), winch
remained in the place of the primitive gamma. This change of place was doubtless what gave occasion to Diomedes to
call the (G) a new consonant. The bare inspection of the old Latin alphabet, derived from the Ionic, as it was used
by the Romans about 714 years before Christ, to- be seen in Dr. Morton's edition, column 17, will be sufficient to
justify what hath now been advanced. In the meantime we should not have forgot to observe, that the name of
the lettei (G) in the Irish, is gort, which signifies the ivy tree, vulgarly called eid/mean, Lat. heder. Our Gram
marians commonly use ( c) or double (c) instead of (g), especially when the radical word begins with (c), as a
ccosa, their feet; a ccinn, their heads; which are pronounced, a gosa, a ginn. But the most correct manner of
writing these and the like worde is a g' cosa, a g' iun, &c.

II m not admitted as a letter into the Irish Alphabet, nor otherwise employed in the Irish Language than as a mere
aspirate, ,n the same manner as in the Greek. The Greeks anciently used (H) as a letter, 2nd not merely as an
rffaS ? ?4$har5C8 ' the7 m0St 8ncient A'phabets, and it is well known they wrote THEOS
with the different letters () and (H) instead of THEOS written with the single letter Theta. In the Irish Lan-
ginge (H) is prefixed as a strong aspirate betre words beginning with a vowel? and having reference to objects of
the Female sex, as a kaidh, her face; h'r, her gold; and secondly, when such words are preceded by the Irish
propositionsi to o re, with or by, which take place not only in ordinary words, as le h'r ueus h'airod, with gold
and silver, but also the names 01 Countries, Principalities and particular Clans, as h'OsruiMbh, hh'Vladb,
with or by the people of , with Ulidia; It is now called Uath, from Uath the whitethorn tree.
I is the eighth letter of the Irish Alphabet, and the third of the five vowels, of the denomination of caol or small
vowels. It is called lodha from lodha vulgo ibhar the yew tree, Lat. taxus, and is not unlike the Hebrew Jod, and
Gr. lota, as to its appellative. The Irish Language admits of no (I) consonant no more than the Greek, and it seems
to appear by the following examples that the Latins' did not use it as a distinct character, for they wrote, as rrisvian
tells us, peiiui for pejus, and eiius for ejus, &c. In our old manuscripts e and i were written indifferently one for
another, as has been observed in the remarks upon e. It is the prepositive vowel of those diphthongs ,and triphthougs
which are called na cig, Ifine, or the five iphthongs from lfin the gooseberry hush, Lat. grossuiaria, via. ia, iai, iu,
, and io, of which we find in used among the Hebrews, as Heb./, Lat, os ejus.

REMARKS ON THE LETTER M.
>I is die tenth .letter of the Irish Alphabet, and is counted among the strong consonants, called Consoineadha teanna,
and then has the force of V consonant; as, a mhthair, his mother ; a mhaighdion, his virgin, are pronounced,
a Vdtltair, a Kaighdion.It is. called Muin, from Muin, the vine, Lat. vitis. As to its figure in the Irish and
old Saxon, it resembles the Hebrew Mem, so called from the sound. It is often prefixed by an apostrophe
(which cuts off the vovels annexed to it), to the beginning of nouns, whether they begin with vowels or conso
nants, and then signifies mv or mine: as, m'anam, my soul, i. e. moanam; m'elus, my skill, i. o. mo elus,
"'fiar, my husband, i. o. mj /hear, &c. wherefore it may be well called a prepositive pronoqti, It is also added
to verbs in the present, tense, first person; as, lighim, 1 read, i. e. ligh me; mnttim, I leach, i, e. mnfiidh me ;
Lat. //tones, &c. ; and in this latter sense it inay not be improperly called a. subjunctive pronoun.
We think it wen worth observing here, that our language bears a perfect resemblance, in the disposition of its pio-
, to the manner of ordering them in the Hebrewfor the latter divide them into c!as>es, which tjiey res
pectively called piirfixa, and suffira, or prepositive and subjunctive pronoun The prepositive are set before "words,
and the subjunctive are written in the end of words; both equally determine the person. M, when aspirated, is
"f.eu confounded by our Copyists with b aspirated, because they both sound like v consonant, as the, Irish of
a river is written umhan, and more frequently, but abusively abltun ; and also in the words uumhan, and
'ihhan, fear, horrorin these and the like doubts, we should always have recourse to other languages,
in which we may find the radical letter. Thus, when we consider, that amnis in the Latin is the appella
tive of a river, "and that phibos in Greek, is the appellative of fear, we may safely conclude, that m is
tire radical 'letter in the f rmer, and b in the latter; and -iequently, that the one should be properly written
.umhan, and not abhan ; and the other abJian, and not .'. The like doubt often arises in the middle of
certajn word*, in which d and g are hidiiierently written, as for the Irish of a face or complexion, we commonly
write aghaidh, and very rarely adhaidh but by consulting the Greek, we see it written Ei-ios, and thence may
be conv na d, that our Irish word should be properly written adhaidh, and not aghaidh. M is often set before b
in the beginning of words, in which case b not pronounced, although it is the radical letter ; as, a m'blighuna,
this year; am'baui, their manners ; a m'briathra, their words, are pronounced, a udighana, a masa, amriaihra,
is sometimes changed into m ; as, bean, a woman, gen, mnaoi, and plur. mna, mnaibh ; bo, a cow,
gen, muin; as, don mhuin. We find that ./Eobans instead of M often wrote and P, which, as has been observed
in their own places, are almost identically the same letter; as, Gr. bellein, for niellein, Lat. deber; Cr. pu-culot,
for niicvllos, parvulus} hence the Italians retain piclo, to signify little. And again ihey write m instead of b
and p; a=, mathousa, for pathousa ; Lat. patiens, and Lat. somnus ; from Gr. hupnos. The Latins familiarly eclipse
b, in some words, as for submitco, we pronounce summiito. Wherefore we should be less surprised, if such indif
ferences ami dubious words he found in a. languie, so much neglected and uncultivated as the Irish language
has been for some ages past. It is to be noted, that though m aspirated is frequently substituted in the place of
an aspirated b, and vice versa; yet it is for want of judgment in the writer, inasmuch as the vowel or vowels,
which precede the latier, are pronounced with a stronger, dearer, and more open expiration, thin those that
precede the former. This difference of pronunciation is sensibly observable ; for example, between tnabh, a tribe,
and Icanih, insipid, as w.ell as between slabhuidhe, a slave, and snundiuidhe, a swimmer.

REMARKS ON THE LETTER N.
N is the eleventh letter of the Irish Alphabet, is never aspirated, and is ranked by our Grammarians among the light
consonan*, called Cmsoineadka cadtroma ; hen it is prefixed to G in the beginning of a word, it is ranked among
the robust, called contomeadha teatma, and then both letters aie called Ngeatal, or Niatal, from Niatal, reed, Laf
Arundo. It is called iluin, from Nuin, the ash tree, Lat. frarimts. In Hebrew it is called Nun, from the sound ;
it is often doubled, and then sounds strong, as rara, a head, lann, a sword, teann, strong ; but a double nn is
rarely written in Irish, a little stroke being set over the letter instead of it, thus (-). We find this manner was
familiar to the Latins in ancient times, and by the ignorance of some copyists end engravers, has made many word*
dubious; for t-hey often omitted n, when they should always write it, as Claneli, for Ciementi ; Cqjus, for Conjus,
The Greeks in like manner omittec1 n in some words; for they wrote Horicsios, for Hortensius, and Gallia Nuibo-
nesin, Lougdonesia, and Hispunia Tarrccouesia, for Galtia Narbonensis, Lugdunensis, and Taraconcnsis ; and the
Latins did sometimes insert it where it had no right lo stand, as in corjunx, lor conjtix; totiens for loties; and quotiatM
for . Because these writers and engravers did not understand the little bars or strokes set over some vowels
to denote a long pronunciation, instead of which they wrote n or ni ; and again, when these bars had been
intended to signify n or m, they ignorantly took them for the sign of a long syllable. And indeed these mistakes
are not unusual among our Irish copyists, nor can a language, whose histories and writings depend on manuscripts
be free from the like errors. It is to be noted, that as this letter receives no aspirate, so it is never eclipsed by
prefixing any other letter to it in the beginning of words. It is likewise lo be observed, that the letter n at the
beginning of words, which are referred either to objects of the feminine gender, or to persons or things of the
plural number, is pronounced double, and very nearly with the same sound as gn in the French Seigneur, or in
the Spanish word Sennor. This double pronunciation in like circumstances, is common to the three consonants
L, N, R, as halh been already observed of the L, and shall be in like maimer of the K. Thus for example, in the
word mart, when we say, a rieart, meaning the strength of a woman, the initial letter n is pronounced double, as it
is in the same a neart," when it means their strength, and so in all other words beginning w ith n, as a radical
letter.

is the twelfth letter of the Irish Alphabet, and the fourth vowel ; it is of the denomination of Leathan, or broad vowels ;
and is therefore used indifferently with a or in old Irish Manuscripts, and in some words by the moderns: as, dcor,
dar, dur, a tear ; Lat, lacryma. We find that the Greeks, especially the Dorians, did change their a into o: as,
troma tor trauma, a wound ; otax for aulax, a furrow. The Latins anciently wrote coda for cauda ; plostrum forpi'strum;
lotus for lautus, ifc. In the Latin we also find a written for ; as, from creo is formed creavi and erratum ; and has
been sometimes taken foro: as, 'funics for fontes ;frundes for frondes ; fret for jreto ; Acher unte forAcheronte, (c.m
Lucretius. Pi ny says that some states of Italy, particularly the Umbnans and Tuscans, did not at all use o, but
always wrote instead of it. This letter is sometimes short and sometimes long, and in this, corresponds with the
Greek omega and omicron. It is the prepositive vowel of the diplhong or, so called from ir the spindle tree ; rulgd,
fcrus, L..t. euonymus ; and we find this diphthong in the Hebrew : as, Heb. Goi, Lat. geus; as also among the Greeks:
as, coilon, cvim, Lat. calum, cana.

02 ORD ORR
.-'-
* is the thirteenth letter of the Irish Alphabet, and ranked among the hard consonants, called in Irish consoineadha
cradha. It bears an aspirate, and then pronounces exactly like the Greek phi ; and is numbered among the
rough consonants, called consoineadha garbha. Tili letter is called in Irish Peith-bliog. Our Grammarians do
not inform us from what tree it borrows this appellation, and O'Flaherty is equally silent concerning it. But it
seems quite obvious, that it can mean nothing else than Beith-bhog, or softthat is to say, P is only a soft or
mollifying way of expressing B; and the reason of it is, because originally they were the same letter, and P
was not used in the Irish Language before our knowledge of the Latin, in the time of St. Patrick. In our old
parchments we find these two letters taken indifferently one for another ; as, prtach, a boor or rustic, for br-
tach,; Lat. bruiunu Pist or Piast, any beast, for bist ; Lat. bestia; diph, to them, for dibh ; Sip/t, you, for
Sibh, &c. And in like manner, is very often set before any word beginning with P, in which case P is not
pronounced, although it seems to be a primary letter; as a bpian, their pain ; Lat. pana; a bpriacail, their dan
ger ; Lat. periculum ; a bpeacadh, their sin ; Lat. peccaturn ; pronounced a bian, a brined, a beacadh, &c. Bv
which we may plainly see how just is the remark of Mr. Lhuyd, in his comparative Etymology, title 1. page 21 . col.
1. "There are," says he, " scarce any words in the Irish, besides what are borrowed from the Latin or some
-* other language that begin with P ; insomuch, that in an ancient Alphabetical Vocabulary, I have by me, that
" letter is omitted." Besides we find in the old Norwegian Alphabet, which is the ancient Runic alphabet, that
there is no difference between the figure of the characters and P. See Olaus Worm. lit. Run. p. 5+. The
Greeks wrote them indifferently one For another; as, G. batein, for patein; Lat. ambulare; bicron, for Picron ;
Lat. acerbum. Hence it is, that in verbs, which termnate in bo, they change it into pso in the future tense ;
as, Gr. leibo, to leave, fut. leipso, and not leibso. And the Latins have followed their example ; as scribo, to
write, Perf. scripsi, and Sup. scriptum, and not scribsi, and scribtum. And it is by reason of this identity between
and P, that the Latins say, pasco, to feed, from Gr. bosco ; papa, from Gr. babai ; buius, from Gr. puxos ; pedo,
from Gr. bdeo ; pnieus, from Gr. bullios, &c. And the Greeks, to observe it, by the by, have, in like manner,
taken their Burgos, a tower or castle, from the Phenicians, their first instructors in letters, in whose language it
is Borg, which is plainly of the same root with our Irish word brog or brug, a strong or fortified place, also a
Lord's court or castle; whence the French Bourg, the German Burgh, and English Borough, do in a larger sense
signify a town ; just as Castellum, properly afortrese, is often used by -Cesar, in his Commentaries, to signify a
town or village; and in the same manner, that the Gothic word Gards, properly a house or castle, doth some
times mean a town ; for Asgard and Asburg, are the same. But to indicate the close, mutual affinity of and
P, Quintilian assures us, that in pronouncing the word obtinuit, our ears rather perceive optiauit. In old inscrip
tions apsens, is written for ubsens, pleps, for plebs, poplicus, for publicus, &c.And hence we familiarly say, Sup-
pono, for Subpono, eppono, for obpono. The Dutch pronounce ponum] vinum, for bonum vinum.By what has
been observed, we plainly sec, that and P were originally the same letter, and that Peith-bhog can bo nothing
else than Beith-bhog or mollified.Mr. Lhuyd remarks in the above cited place, that a considerable number
of those words, whose initial letter is P in the British, begin in the Irish with C, ex. paraid, wherefore, Ir.
eread; Wei. pryv, a worm ; Ir. cruimh; Wei. pretm, a tree; Ir. crann ; We\.pen, ahead; Ir. ceunn. We find
the like affinity in many words, between the Greek and Latin, and the Irish language; as, Ir. Caisg and Casga,
Easter ; Greek and Latin pasehu, and Chaldaic pascha, which is derived from the Hebrew.PasaJi or Phaae;
Lat. transitu?, the Passover; Ir. cos, the leg ; Gr. pons, and Lat. pes ; Ir. clmh, a feather ; Lat. pluma; Gr,
ptilon and ptiluma ; Wei. pluv, &c.The same observation has been made by Vossius, with respect to the inter
rogative, and relative of the Ionic Dialect" Iones," says he, " in interrogativis, mutant p in c, ita cs dicunt
pro ps, hocos pro hopos, pro poios, coios, pro pote, cote, ce pro pe."Mr. Baxter (in Glossario antiqu Bri
tannia;, p. 90 ) remarks, that the oldest Brigahtes, whom he esteems the first inhabitants of Britain, never used,
in their language, the sound of the letter P, which was afterwards introduced by the Belgic Britons. It' the old
jrigantes were really of the first inhabitants of Britain, it would follow, that they were a part of the Gnidclian or
Gaulish colony, who went over to Irelartd, and whom Mr. Lhuyd evidently proves to have been the first inhabi
tants of all that part of Great Britain, which now comprehends England and Wales.It hath been observed before,
that the Lingua prisca, or the primitive Latin tongue was chiefly formed upon the Celtic; and the truth of this
assertion is abundantly confirmed throughout the whole course of this Dictionary.' This being premised as a fact,
it follows, that the subsequent Celtic, still preserved in the Irishviz. clmh, cuitse, (corruptly cuisle,)
corcur or curcur, eland, cib, obuir, secht, were respectively the originals upon which the Latin words pluma,
pulsus, purpura, planta, copitt (copiarum,) opus, operis, scptem, have been formed, as mere derivatives from their
respective Celtic Aichetj pes above written. This indeed plainly appears from their consisting of a greater
number of syllables. Hence, I presume, it may rationally be conjectured, that the primitive Latin words in.
the lingua prisca, formed upon the above Celtic originals, were cluma, cutsus eurcura, cfanta, cobitc, arum, obus,
oberis, sectemThis conjecture is the more rational, as the primitive number of letters, brought first into
Greece by Cadmus, and afterwards to the Aborigines of Italy by Evander the Arcadian, consisted but of six
teen, as we are assured by Tacitus, Anal. II. and by Pliny, I. 7. c. 6, which could not be without excluding
the letter P as well as the H, which latter makes but an aspirate in several languages.

REMARKS ON THE LETTER R
The letter R, which is the fourteenth of the Irish Alphabet, is not susceptible of many Remarks. It is called
Ruis, by our Grammarians, from the old Irish name of the tree, which in the vulgar Irish is called Tram, the
elder tree ; Lat. Sambucas ; Gr. acte. This letter is one of the three consonants called consoineadha adhtroma,
which do not admit of the aspirate h. in the remarks on the two others, which are L and N, it has been ob
served, that in words or nouns substantive, beginning with either of them, and referred to things or persons of
the feminine gender, or to any things or persons in the plural number, those initials are pronounced double,
though written singly.Thus, a lacht, her or their milk, is pronounced as if written a Llacht ; or like the words
Llamar and Lleno ; in Spanish, and a Nearl, her or their strength, is pronounced as if written a Nneart, or like
gn in the French word Seigneur. Thus also in substantives, beginning with R, and referred to things or persons
either of the feminine gender or of the plural numberthe initial R is pronounced double, and with a strong
utterance ; as, a reuma, her or their rheum or phlegm, is pronounced as if written a rruma, and very nearly as
the aspirate R in the Greek word llheuma. Another essential remark to be made on these three letters, L, N, R,
arid which hath not as yet been made, is, (hat when they are initials of adjectives, they are never pronounced
double, of whatever gender or number the things or persons those adjectives are referred to, should happen to be.
Lastly, it is to be remarked, that L, N, R, are the only consonants of the Irish language which are written double ;
and this duplication frequently happens, both in the middle and end of words, but never in the beginning, though
they are pronounced double, when initials, in the cases above explained.

T?U?l RUA RD
S is the fifteenth letter of the Irish Alphabet, and is not ranked by our Grammarians in any particular order of the
consonants ; but, is absolutely called sometimes Aimrid, or barren ; and sometimes Bain-rioghan na cconsoineadha,
or the Queen of the consonants; because in the composition of Iri,h verse it will admit of no other consonant
to correspond with it; and our Irish Prosodians are as nice and punctual in the observance of the Uaim and
Cmhordughadh, or union and correspondence, as the Greeks and Latins are in the collocation of their Dactyles
and Spondees. So, that if an Irish Pcet should have transgressed against the established rule and acceptation
of the consonants, he would be exposed to Revere reprehension. We find in the Greek division of the consonants
into several classes, as mutes, liquids, &c. that the letter Sigma, or S, is styled : Sua potestaiis litera, or an abso
lute and independent letter. In Irish it is called Suil, or Sail, fromSail, the willow tree, Lat. Salir. It is to be
noted that all Irish words beginning with the letter S, and which are of the feminine gender, must necessarily admit
of an adventitious T before the initial S, when the Irish particle an, (which in signification answers to the Eng
lish article the) is prefixed to such words. In which case the T eclipses the S, so that the word is pronounced as
if it had not belonged to it ; though S 3 always written to shew it is the initial radical letter. Thus, the word
Sil, an eye, or the eye; Srn, anose, or the nose, when the Irish particle an, signifying the in English,
is prefixed to them, are necessarily to be written ; an tsuil, an tsron, and pronounced an til, an iron. But
words beginning with S, which are of the masculine gnder, admit of no adventitious letter, as a prefix. Thus
we say and write, an S/innedn, a shoulder; an solus, the light ; and this, by the by, is one method to find out the
gender of words beginning with S. It is also to be observed, that when S is aspirated by subjoining A to it,
which cannot happen but when it is an initial letter, it becomes by this means quiescent; so that its sound is
not distinguishable from that of a T, aspirated at the beginning of a word ; for the words, a Shit, his eye ;
a theanga, his tongue, are pronounced as if written a hit, a keanga.

* is the sixteenth Letter of the Irish Alphabet, and ranked among the hard consonants ; contointadha cruadha. It bear*
an aspirate, and then is numbered among the rough consonants, called consoineadha garbka, and pronounces like A.
This letter is called Teint; from teine, turze. The letter T is naturally commutable with D, both being letters of the
same organ ; and accordingly, in our old MSS. we find them indifferently written, the one for the other, in the middle
and end of words ; but seldom or never as initials. In the remarks on the letter G, and its being equally commutable
with C, it hath been observed, that the unlimited practice of indifferently substituting the one :nstead ot the of h ,
could not but be abusive in some respects. The same observation holds good with regard toT and D; not only bec ,
they are two different letters, holding different places in all the alphabets, and consequently of different powers and
functions in the radical and original formation of words, but also because such an unlimited indiffrence, in ub-u-
tuting those letters lor each other in any particular language, cannot but be prejudicial to the affinity which ttie
words ot that language may radically bear with the words of the same meaning in other languages, ft is to be
remarked, that the letter T is used as an adventitious prefix to all Irish vords begming with a vowel, which are
of the masculine gender, and are preceded by the article an, which in English signifies the; ex. an t'anam,
the soul , nn t ean, the bird ; an t'tonghnadh, the wonder ; an t'igfhear, the young men ; an t'ua- htarvm, the su
perior. It hath been observed in the remrks on the letter S, that words of the feminine gendeT begmmng with S>
must necessarily admit the letter T as a prefix, when preceded by the article en, and then the initial S is eclipsed
or suppressed in the pronunciation, as in the words an t's/at, an ttil, an t'srn, tfc. pronounced an ttat, an
, an iron. But this rule suffers one remarkable and curious exception, which is, that words beginning
with the letter S, in which the initiai S is immediately followed by either T or D, w I not admit an
adventitious T as a prefix; as in the words <m stuirni, an stivir, an stvuie, an , an sdtd, an sdit, &c.
It is also to be noted of this letter T, that when it is aspirated, wrth a subjoined h, it is then ren
dered quiescent and suppressed in the pronunciation ; as in the word a iheng*, his tongue, which is pronounced,
ahednga. Another singularity occurring on this subject, is, that nouns of the masculine gender, beginning with
S, must receive the prefix t, when they are of the genitive case singular, preceded by the article an; ex.
mullach an t steibhe, the top of the mountain; bcalbhach an t'sriain, the mouth-piece of the bridle ; roimh-cMal
an t'siongmn, the forecast of the ant ; gliocas an t'sionnaigh, the cunning of the fox. But in the genitive plaral,
we say, mullaigh na sletbhte, btalbhacka na sriun, reiiah-chiul m siongain, &c.

U is now the seventeenth and last letter of the Irish Alphabet, which originally consisted but of sixteen letters, vid.
Remarks on the letter . This letter is called by Grammaiians Ur, which means the yew tree, otherwise written
bhur and iubhar. U is one of the three broad or grave vowels, and was used inditrently for or o, not only in
the Irish Language, but likewise in the Greek and Latin. Cassiodorus observes that the old Latins made nodill'er-
ence between and in their manner of writing or pronouncing, Volt being frequently used for Vult, colpa for
culpa, prastu for pnesto, poblicum for publicum, and hoc for hue; as in Virgil's JEneid, " Hoc tunc ig n ipotens celo
descendit ab alio." And for the Greek mut the Latins wrote nor, for Gr. mule Lat. mola ; also a for u, as Gr. culix
Lat. calix, Gr. mudao Lat. tnadeo; likewise for a, as for the Greek Hecabe the Latins wrote Hecuba, Gr. cala/nos
Lat. cubitus; and in the Latin we find the a in the word calco changed into u, in its compound conculo. The Irish
Alphabet has no a consonant, to which an aspirated b or bh is equivalent in power and pronunciation, as likewise in
the Greek, a single b it beta serves for v, thus, for the Hebrew word David, the Greeks write Dabid, as the Irish
do Dbhi, vid. Remarks on the letters b and /. In many of the ancient vellum MSS. a dotted or aspirated is
sometimes made to represent the M or v consonant. U is the initial or leading vowel of the three upthon^s ua, uai
and ui, called na tri huilleana, from uillean the honey-suckle tree, Lat. caprifolium. Scwppius and Carisius have
remarked that a syllable may be formed either by one vowel, or by two, or by three, as the word , &c.
but Suintitian will not allow three vowels can be united in one syllable, and Terentian joins him in the sam opi
nion : syllabam, say s he, non invenimus ex tribus. But a syllable of three vowels is very common, as w ell as easy
and natural in the Irish Language. The Hebrews have the dipththong ui, as in the word Galui, Lat. revelatum, &
as also a whole word consisting of only two vowels, as the Hebrew ai, which signifies an Island, Region or Country."
vid. Opitius's and B^uxtorf's Heb. Lexicons. I would be curious to know how the ingenious Monsieur Bergier, who*
allows no radicals but consonants, would make out the radical formation of this Hebrew ai, or of the Greek words
' the genitive, and uiea the accusative of huieus, filins, and of many other words of a like frame in other lau<'uages,
espescially in the Irish, wherein words consisting of vowels alone are very frequent. Nor is Monsieur Btrgier's
own language destitute of words of such a frame : the eau, water, is an obvious proof of it, amongst many others.
I should rather join in opinion with the learned and judicious author of the treatise on the mechanical formation of
languages, who reckons the vowels amongst the radical elements of all words. Their being commutable with
each other should not deprive them of that privilege, no more than the consonants, many of which are equally
interchangeable, and promiscuously used. Before we have done with the vowels it is fit to remark, that words
beginning with a vowel, being of the masculine gender and of the nominative case singular, must have the letter
T as a prefix, when preceded by an, as an t'anum, an t'uabhar, &c.
