I am performing the song Siubhan Ni Dhuibhir this coming week, and am wondering first of all, how to pronounce it, and second, what it means. I would be very gratified if someone could help me out. An Anonymous Musician |

That name's equivalent in English would be something like Sue O'Dwyer. Siubhán Ní Dhuibhir is pronounced like "shoo-ahn nyee ghih-vir", or in IPA [ʃuwanˠ ɲiː ɣɪβ´ɪɼ] Learn Irish pronunciation here: www.phouka.com/gaelic/sounds/sounds.htm
