An bhfuil aon difríocht idir h (caol) agua h (leathan)? Sampla: maith vs. math Is there any (audiable) differecne betwixt the h in a slender context and a broad one? |

Déarfainn féin ná fuil. Is féidir difríocht a dhéanamh idir h caol and h leathan (Béarla: "hue" agus "how") ach tá sé fíor-annamh as Gaelainn. |

There is only one h sound in Irish. But in the case of | at the end of a (one-syllable) word it's different, because maith, caith etc are pronounced as if they were maich, caith /majx'/, /kajx'/ in Ulster. A slender th at the end of a word can be pronounced as -ich in Ulster. Otherwise, when it's a real h (not at the end of a word), there's only one sound: thig sé (he comes) and thuig sé (he understood) are pronounced the same way. |

The same is also true for An Rinn in Waterford. Slender [h] turns into [x´] in a number of circumstances there. |

Lughaidh, I did it before once too, but really bad with an orange band around the screen and huge black bands, so it can happen a few ways. Rinne mé ríomh, ach in olcas. Bhí an banda oráiste timpeall an scáthláin agus bhanda móir dubh. |
