Uaireanta rinne bundúchasaigh i Meiriceá sléacht ar shibhialigh - agus baineadh úsáid as seo mar leithscéal chun glanadh eitneach agus cinedhíothú a dhéanamh orthu. Sin an rud atá ag tarlú in Gása anois. 2/2 en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alma_Ma...

Testimony of a U.S. soldier who recently left Gaza after working at the American aid distribution center:

In a podcast, he shared this heartbreaking moment:
“Amir, the boy in the photo, barefoot and frail, walked 12 kilometers just to reach the aid center.

A retired U.S. soldier who worked at Gaza aid delivery sites said, “What I witnessed in Gaza, I can only describe as a dystopian, post-apocalyptic wasteland. We, the United States, are complicit. We are involved, hand in hand, in the atrocities and the genocide that is currently undergoing in Gaza.”

Israel announces major expansion of settlements in occupied West Bank

colmobroin.bsky.social @colmobroin.bsky.social · May 29

See how Israel openly admits using civilians as human shields.

'Katz said the decision was a "strategic move that prevents the establishment of a Palestinian state...This is a Zionist, security, and national response - and a clear decision on the future of the country"'

www.bbc.com/news/article...

The biggest such move in years is condemned by the Palestinian presidency as a "dangerous escalation".

"Settlements - which are widely seen as illegal under international law"

They're not "widely seen" as illegal, they are illegal.

"Though Israel disputes this"

Shock horror as criminal denies committing a crime.

Tréith eile a bhaineann le Connachta & Uladh ná go ndeirtear 'ao' cosúil le 'í' msh:

Cnocán Caorthainn --> Knockankeeraná

Tá neart logainmneacha a léiríonn gurb é 'dú' an fhoghraíocht a bhí ar 'dubh'

An Gleann Dubh --> Glendoo
An Log Dubh --> Lugdoo

Tréith a bhaineann le Mumha agus oirthear Laighean ná go ndeirtear 'mh/bh' ag tús fhoclaí cosúil le 'v'. Tá roinnt eile a léiríonn an fhuaim, cosúil le ‘w’, a fhaightear i gCúige C & U

Treith é seo atá le fáil i nGaeilge Chonnachta agus a bhí le fáil i gCúige Laighean

Tá logainmneacha a thugann le fios gur 'croc' a dúradh in áit 'cnoc'

Cnoc an Raithín -> Crockaroyne
Cnoc an Choiligh -> Cruc a choille

Tá gnéithe le fáil sna logainmneacha a thugann eolas dúinn faoin nGaeilge a labhraíodh sa cheantar.

Tá go leor samplaí a thugann le fios gur mar a/e a dúradh 'aigh' nó 'igh' ag deireadh fhoclaí
