Talk:inch

Webster 1913 has another sense (from Gaelic inis): "an island; often used in the names of small islands off the coast of Scotland, as in Inchcolm, Inchkeith, etc." I can't seem to find the word used alone in this sense in Google Books. Equinox ◑ 13:18, 4 July 2013 (UTC)

• The OED has this meaning, so I've added it anyway (I can't remember the language code for the Gaelic etyl). SemperBlotto (talk) 13:26, 4 July 2013 (UTC)
  • p.s. Search Google books for "To inch and rock the sea-mews fly."
