I believe AN UAITHNE is a generic word for ancient Irish harp songs. And I understand that there were three types of song: suantrai, goltrai and geantrai.
I am interested in harp myths and would like help please
a) in pronouncing all four words
b) can anyone explain to me why suantrai is sometimes spelt suantri
Thank you! Liz

An Uaithne was the name of the God of Music;
suantraí is a lullaby
goltraí a lament
geantraí a song of pleasure.

The answer to b) is it's wrong!

Hopefully somebody else will weigh in with pronunciations - I don't do them.

However, there is an Irish group who originally called themselves an Uaithne, but changed there name to Anúna to cater for english speakers - that will give you an idea of the correct pronunciation. (Eithne Ní Bhraonáin - Enya - did the same)

There is some information here: but I won't vouch for the accuracy..

Hello I have a question?
How do you write the name Nora or mother?

I believe Nora is Nora.

Mother = máthair

By the way, the second link I gave has audio in Irish and Scots Gaelic for the three terms.

Nora is Nóra.

SOO-un-tree
GOL-tree
GyAAHN-tree

Roll the 'r's slightly and that's a pretty good approximation for a speaker of North American English - Standard Dialect.
