Does "i gcomhair" take the genitive? Someone just asked me, and I can't remember.

For these sort of questions I usually try try to memorise one phrase, to remind me. For "i gcomhair" it is:

Féirín i gcomhair na Nollaig - a present for Christmas.

A dhiabhail!! Bhí "Nollag" ar intinn agam ar dtús ach d'iompaigh mé ar "Nollaig" faoi dheireadh.

Thanks, a chara.
