Scéal faoi duine sa DUP ag gearán faoin nGaeilge arís.

Nach ait an rud é go bhfuil ainm na tíre seo aige? Descended from the O'Raghallaigh or have i gone mad?
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

Cé gurbh fhéidir gurb ea a Dhomhnaill, ní gá gurb ea.

Bhí Ó Raghallaigh ag athrú as 'O Reilly' go 'Reilly' in Ardmhacha (baile) agus ar an mBaile Nua i bhFear Manach, ach bhí an bunús Béarla ('rye' = 'seagal') leis an sloinne Riley i Sasain chomh maith. Litrítí cuid den dream abhus faoin leagan san chomh maith, 'Ryely' ar an tSrath Bán céad bliain ó shoin, fágaim (Mathson [1994]).

Is féidir gurb as ceachtar den dá bhunús é an fear so, cá bhfios anois? Más comhartha ar bith an nimhneas atá san fhear so, is féidir gur de shliocht Gaeil é ceart go leor, óir ba réchúisí an duine, é chuile sheans, dá mba de shliocht Sasanach é. Is searbh í an fhírinne agus an duine dá réir.
