Scottish Gaelic bithidh , Manx bee , Irish bíonn
To date, there is no linguistic map or table available that provides us with a microscopic comparative distribution of the independent form of the present indicative for the pan-Gaelic area as a whole. Quite a few such detailed tables exist for Gaelic Scotland (§5) but none for Gaelic Ireland. In addition to providing a synchronic distribution of bíonn ‘is wont to be’ for most dialects in Ireland (Appendix 1), bithidh ‘will be’ in Scotland, and b…
Absence and Presence
Terra Sonâmbula explora duas narrativas para elucidar a procura da identidade num Moçambique arrasado pela guerra civil. Os dois enredos da narrativa, separados por tempo e espaço, fundem-se eventualmente nos dois capítulos finais para produzir uma identidade indeterminada. O encontro (a resolução) do passado e presente produz uma identidade que, de certa forma, é ausente e presente. O espaço comum a ambas as narrativas, Moçambique, é suficientem…
On substantiating Indo-European *wḷHos ’wolf’ in Celtic, Continental and Insular
According to some linguists, the IE word for ’ wolf’, * wlkhos, has been replaced in Celtic languages by new expressions, such as the periphrastic Irish mac tíre ’ son of the land’, probably calqued on a pre-Indo-European substratum. But IE *wlkhos is nevertheless attested in Continental Celtic, though the exact meaning of Gaulish Catuuolkos is still disputed, ’ hawk of battle’ or ’ wolf of battle’. According to J. Koch, the meaning was originall…
Late Medieval Plainchant For The Divine Office
For seven hundred years, from the ninth to the sixteenth century, church musicians all over Europe were composing and adapting plainsong for the services of the Roman Catholic Church. This chapter deals only with the offices. The following paragraphs review the services and the genres within them, summarizing, with a few additional details, the excellent account of the standard repertory and its liturgical setting to be found in the second volume…

An Dream Gaoidhealta Gallda
An Dream Gaoidhealta Gallda (Les Anglo-Normans devenus Gaels), Les Poètes de l'est de I' Ulster et leurs mécènes, représentant à la fois la Couronne anglaise et l'Irlande gaélique. Si la colonisation anglaise en Irlande, aux XVIe et XVIIe s., a eu pour résultat de remplacer l'ancienne hiérarchie gaélique par les notables anglais, les poètes bardiques et les juges brehon n'ont pas toujours été hostiles au nouveau régime. De plus, quelques familles…
Un cas d’homonymie
A case of homonymy : the words for "face" and "liver" in the Gaelic dialects. In some districts, there happened an homonymy between the word for «face », Oir. agad, aiged, Mod. aghaidh, and the word for «liver», ae. Different solutions have been used to avoid the risk of confusion : either the creation of a compound, Ulster cruad-ae «hard liver», or the use of plural, adhae (Ecosse), or the replacement of aghaidh with éadan , which had for its fi…
Le toponyme breton Penhep
L. Fleuriot était tenté d’analyser le toponyme Penhep (Finistère) comme un composé pen «tête» + *ep «cheval». Il y aurait un parallèle exact en irlandais, Cenn Eich (Hogan), cf. br. Penterc’h, gall. Pentyrch, et v.irl. Cenn Tuirc «tête de sanglier». Et d’autres noms bretons de même signification, Penmarc’h, Cap Cavai «tête de cheval». Mais Fleuriot avait insisté sur la nécessité, dans ce cas, de démontrer que le -h-n’était pas étymologique. Or ce…
When Worlds Collide. Indo-Europeans and Pre-Indo-Europeans
A Dictionary of Selected Synonyms in the Principal Indo-European Languages
Originally published in 1949 and appearing now for the first time in a paperbound edition, Buck's Dictionary remains an indispensable tool for diachronic analysis of the Indo-European languages. Arranged according to the meaning of words, the work contains more than 1,000 groupings of synonyms from the principal Indo-European languages. Buck first tabulates the words describing a particular concept and then discusses their etymological and semant…
