teagasc
Irish
[edit]Alternative forms
[edit]Pronunciation
[edit]- (Munster) IPA(key): /ˈtʲaɡəsˠk/
- (Connacht) IPA(key): /ˈtʲaɡəsˠ/[2][3] (corresponding to the form teagas)
- (Ulster) IPA(key): (South Donegal) /ˈtʲɨɡəsˠk/ (as if spelled tiogasc)[4], (Central Donegal) /ˈtʲɨɣəsˠk/ (as if spelled tioghasc)[5], (North Donegal) /ˈtʲɛɡəsˠk/[6]
The form teagas, with the final c dropped, is due partly to metanalysis of the phrase teagasc Críostaí (“catechism”), in which the final /k/ of the first word is assimilated to the initial /c/ of the second word, and partly to the influence of the suffix -as.[7]
