[edit] Translation
It says in the article: Gleann Bheatha translates into English as "Glen of the Birches". Does anyone know if this is correct? Isn't the word birch beith in Irish, while the word birches is beitheanna? Could it be Beatha which means life? --Frokor 21:57, 18 October 2007 (UTC)
- Gleann Bheatha would indeed be "Glen of life"; after consulting with my sister we think that Glen of Birch would be Gleann na Beithe and Glen of Birches would be Gleann na mBeith(eanna). In each case there would be an article ("na" in this case). Let me know on my talk page if I need to come back and clarify anything. Stifle (talk) 21:18, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
