The word "sliabh" sounds cool too, at least in its Donegal pronunciation [ʃʎiəw] :good:

One of my children accused another of being 'ag spalpadh Béarla' today. I love the sound of 'ag spalpadh'.

That's a new word to add to my vocabulary. I have a feeling I'll be using that one a lot. :good:

I hope you will be 'accused' of being 'ag spalpadh Gaeilge' in ionad a bheith 'ag spalpadh Béarla'! :mrgreen:

I like the sound of "buaireamh" as it is pronounced in the western part of Gaoth Dobhair ie. [bwiɛju] (I know, it's strange :mrgreen:
