bainistíocht táirgeachta
[BAN-ish-teext TAWrig-axta]*
*x is the sound of 'ch' in the Scottish loch, German Bach...
I'll drive home tomorrow.
Tiománfaidh mé abhaile amárach.
I suppose most native speakers would pronounce tiomán- with a broad rather than a slender 't', though.

siúil - siúlaim is a syncopating verb (siobhail - siobhlaim), tumáin - tumáinaim is not - it is a plain 1st conjugation verb. Actually I am curious about other verb:
foghlaim - foghlamaím/ foghlaimím - why is it second conjugation if it is not syncopating?

Maybe as it is long/multi syllable? |

Good point, but we have verbs like "freastail" which are also multisyllable, but still first conjugation!

Hello,
I am working on a play about Granuile....how do you pronounce the phrase:
"Go mhfearr lei lan loinge de cloinn Conroi na lan loinge d’or."
Many thanks,
Slan,
Sheila |

It might be analogy. Just because it's long. But analogy usually doesn't affect all words so freastal, adhlaic etc. could remain 1st conj.
The same with siúlaim - why is it 1st conjugation if it's syncopating? Obviously because it's monosyllable now /s'u:l-/... cf. also 'labhair' in some dialects /Laur'/ - labhrann, instead of labhraíonn.

Róman, the syllables with m never syncopate. Just s, n, r, l.
I think Freastail doesn't syncopate because we would have a cluster stl, which is odd in Irish.
Silemaire:
Go mhfearr lei lan loinge de cloinn Conroi na lan loinge d’or
Must be: go mb'fhearr léi lán loinge de chloinn Chonroí ná lán loinge d’ór.
Pronounced: goh maarr lay laan ling-uh doh KHlinn-y KHonn-ree nah laan ling-uh dawr.
in IPA: [gˠɔ m´ɛːr leː l̪ˠænˠ l̪ˠɪŋʲɪ d̪ˠɔ χlˠɪɲ χɔn̪ri nˠa l̪ˠæːnˠ l̪ˠɪŋʲɪ d̪ˠɔːɾ]
