Al-Qayljiyyah (the Arabic name for the language; the native name is Gaeilig) is a descendant of Old Irish that has been heavily influenced by Arabic.
An Giumhúirie Gaelaċ
The Gaelic Republic (an Giumhúirie Gaelaċ) is a historically Muslim country in the British Isles. It's often shortened to an Giumhúirie by its inhabitants.
Romanized spelling
- Lenition is always spelled with an overdot, never with h. This is because of Arabic clusters with /h/.
- In Arabic loans, final consonant is always slender unless laryngeal, /r/ or emphatic (This is because of the genitive ending -i)
- Iotation in Arabic loans is spelled with an extra i before the vowel: giumhúirie /ɟʊmˈhuːrʲjə/ 'republic'.
