Morphology
Nouns
Preserves a lot of case inflection in suffixed indefinite articles, via a suffixed áirithe "certain"
- nom sg. ech áirithe > echar 'a horse'
- gen sg. eich áirithi > eichri
- prep sg. euch áirithiu > echru
- acc sg. euch n-áirithe > echna
- nom pl eich áirithi > eichri
- gen pl ech n-áirithe > echna
- prep pl echaibh
- acc pl echu h-áirithi > echuhar
