Táimse tar éis scrúdú a dhéanamh agus d'úsáideas an focal ceannasaí/ceannasaithe don focal Béarla 'leader' an 'fhuil sé sin ceart go leor. B'fhéidir go bhfuilim mícheart ach bhí sé i m'aigne. Tuairimí?
Rud eile ná an bhfuil sé "a chuid fhilíocht" nó "a chuid fhilíochta"?

a chuid filíochta

There's no séimhiú when you use "a chuid X", despite the fact that "cuid" is feminine.

For "ceannasaí", dictionary gives me "duine atá i gceannas, máistir".

For "ceannaire", dictionary gives me "taoiseach, treoraí".

If I were to guess, I'd say the former if more of a dictatorial type of thing, with the latter being more of a democratic kind of thing.

Ceapaim go bhfuil tú i gceart le Ceannasaí ach deirtear Ceannaire i bhfad níos minicí...

Tuiseal Ginideach, 3ú Díoclaonadh - Ainmfhocal bainisineach.

With the 3ú, it's easiest to remember like this :

An fhilíocht > Na filíochta

If it's fem it loses the usual 'h'
If it's masc it gains the 'h'

Táimse tar éis mearbhall a chur orm féin, mar sin stopfaidh mé!

Ceannasai can also be used as a translation for Controller

ceannasaí [ainmfhocal firinscneach den cheathrú díochlaonadh]
duine atá i gceannas, máistir.

ceannaire [ainmfhocal firinscneach den cheathrú díochlaonadh]
taoiseach, treoraí

Tá smacht ag ceannasaí; caithfidh ceannaire/taoiseach mealladh!

Ach n'fheadar an bhfuil an difear chomh soléir sin.
