Talk:Scottish Gaelic alphabet

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Teine

Dwelly gives "furze" as the definition of teine, not "holly". (Onn and oir also mean "furze". Scotland must be covered in the stuff, whatever it is. See Gorse.)

[edit] Ec?!

In what "European" naming system is the letter c called "ec"?

[edit] Name of the letter P

In its place, I see ngetal ("reed"), but it can't be this, can it? FilipeS 16:38, 4 December 2007 (UTC)

While this is speculation, I would agree it doesn't sound right. Nearly all the names are obviously cognate with their Irish counterparts ("beith" and "beith", "nuin" and "nin"), but "ngetal" looks nothing like the Irish name for P which was "peith". - ^Estoy_Aquí^{(t • c • e)} 00:18, 31 December 2007 (UTC)

I've changed it to the name given at Irish orthography, but I don't know if the spelling is right. FilipeS (talk) 22:58, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
