Nav splaw kiss you have your wee fada over the é not the á... A people without a language of its own is only half a nation.A nation should guard its language more than its territories, 'tis a surer barrier and a more important frontier than mountain or river

"ch" is never pronounced like "k" in Irish, a Dhomhnaill. [naβsplɑːχəsˠ] in Munster [ɲawsplahəsˠ] in Ulster Learn Irish pronunciation here: www.phouka.com/gaelic/sounds/sounds.htm

Given sp (see spideog with broad initial cluster) can be broad, and the use of [l] for the lax alveolar l (lax slender l) in the transscription gives [spl], as far as I can see. |
