Talk:Gaeltacht

I've reverted the last edit by Widsith

1. The part of Ireland (or, occasionally, of other countries) where Gaelic (i.e. Irish) is the predominant vernacular language.

for the following reasons.

• The areas are officially recognised by the government, and have been for almost 100 years.
• The term may have once meant places in other countries, but certainly doesn't now.
• The usage notes about the plural should be left, to indicate that the officially incorrect form is commonly used.
• The quote given does not indicate the commonly understood meaning of the word.

Not sure if a second definition could be made, but the meaning you've given it is too uncommon to be the only def. --Dmol (talk) 08:00, 31 October 2012 (UTC)
