Hello,
I am working on a paper on O Bruadair. However, I came across an Irish title that is not translated. It is written in the old Irish font (which I don't have on my computer). The best I can do on the computer is:

An fear céadna cct

Does this make any sense? And does anyone know the English translation?

Thank you so much!

An fear céanna - the same man

I haven't a clue what the CCT means, but it might be a "nod" or abbreviation.
Is the original online anywhere?

I agree with Aonghus on this one. "Céadna" is old spelling for "Céanna" and "cct". looks like an abbreviation of some sort. A bit like "srl"(is araile)

Céanna, old spelling céadna, pronounced céanna, cianna, céarna, ciarna... Scots Gaelic ceudna. All come from Old Irish cétnae.

That's really interesting. I love seeing how languages have developed/changed. Is the pronunciation of the Old Irish cétnae similar to how an Irish speaker of Donegal Irish would pronounce céadna. This is probably totally wrong but that's what occured to me when I read it-bearing in mind I have very limited experience of listening to speakers with Donegal Irish!...

I dont think so Philosophe, Gewwdor Irish sounds some what different to western Irish, they pronounce the wirds differently, Im from down south so I was thought western Irish but my Fiance is from Belfast so was thought Gweedor Irish, and he is always challenging me when i speak Irish as he would say what i had been saying totally differently, lol

Le Meas

*Eibhlin* ;o)

cct: Seo cecinit na Laidine, focal a chiallaíonn ‘do chan’. D’úsáidtí an nod seo sna lámhscríbhinní chun údar téacs a aithint

So the title translates as "by the same author"

go raibh maith agat, was wondering that Aonghus,
just rwading some of the links here, clever man!! you are..

le meas

*Eíbhlin* ;o)

sorry about the spelling mistake, never look when im typing!!

can somebody please help me..i need the phrase "three in one" translated into gaelic..thank you:)

People or things? Context please!

You can't really say "Three in one" in Irish unless you say what.

If you mean the meal from a Chinese, then I'd hazard a guess at:

Trí chinn sa cheann amháin

which may be abbreviated in speech to:

Trí sa cheann

??

Three in the head, a FnaB?

"Trí in aonad", seans.
Nó "Trí le chéile"

Tríonóid - trí phearsa i nDia amháin - trinity (religious)

triad s (Ch.) triad m1 (science)

tré - a threesome (but needs a noun)
Tréanna are triads in poetry.

i want to get a tattoo of a triquetra..which means "3 in 1" i have two sisters and we are all getting the same tattoo so i wanted to have them tattoo "three in one" under the tattoo

... "3 in 1" i have two sisters ....

Mo mholadh duit - my advice would be :

(A)
Ár dtriúr.

poss. pronoun followed with a dative ('triúr' is dat. of 'triar') denoted when three people would act in unison, performing some action as a body, all of one mind.

D'éirigh siad a dtriúr - they arose as one.

Nowadays we would be inclined to say:
D'éirigh an triúr acu d'aon léim amháin.

(B) 'An triúr againn'
would be what most would angle you towards nowadays, but I still prefer (A) above: 'Ár dtriúr'.

To shorten it, you would be in keeping with manuscript tradition to use: 'Ár d3úr'. This doesn't appeal to me however.
