I didn't even know that the "as" was derived from "ar son" in the first place.
I don't think they mean
as being "derived from"
ar son, Gumbi, only
ar son being used instead of
as ucht, or vice versa, in Ulster. (Or did you mean you didn't know
as was derived from
as ucht?)

So here's a related question...when would you use "as" in this context?
Do you have the hard copy of FGB, Red? Meaning 5. of
ucht gives quite a few examples with
as ucht, most of which look replaceable with
ar son.
A stupid one by the looks of it.
