Need a map

[edit]

I've heard of Sliabh Luachra all my life, but after reading this article I still can't for the life of me locate the place on a map in my head (if you understand!). We need some visual of where Sliabh Luachra is. 109.76.135.231 (talk) 00:23, 29 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Irish?

[edit]

Is Irish still the native language of areas here? If so, where? 79.97.154.238 (talk) 21:01, 14 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Question about text

[edit]

The text that says this has some confusion:

An tAthair Padraig Duinnin, who compiled Dineen's Dictionary, viewed as the "bible" of Irish language, and An Bráthair Tomás Rathaille, Superior General of the Presentation Brothers 1905–1925 who wrote two books of Irish poet

What word is the tAthair? Robert (talk) 21:01, 11 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

It's the Irish form of address to a priest, equivalent to 'Father'. He is usually referred to as 'Dineen' in English language texts, and per Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Ireland-related articles#Naming people, the Irish form should not be used here.
