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

  • prep sg echas
  • acc sg n-echas
  • voc sg a eich!
