compound: compound

UD Irish uses the compound relation for noun compounding. In Irish, when two nouns are compounded, the second is in the genitive case. Compounds can denote ownership or an attribute.

Examples

Attributive:

Oifig an Phoist `Post Office’ (lit. Office the Post)

ag cosaint na n-oifigí poist tuaithe \n at protecting the offices post country
compound(n-oifigí, poist)
compound(n-oifigí, tuaithe)

roimh teacht na traenach ‘before the train’s arrival’

roimh teacht na traenach \n before arrival the train
compound(teacht, traenach)

Titles:

an tSúir Concepta \n Sr. Concepta
compound(Concepta, tSúir)

Reflexive Pronoun: féin

Similar to the emphatic pronoun self in English, e.g. himself, themselves.

Cé hiad féin ? \n Who are THEY ?
compound(hiad, féin)

Ownership:

It can also translate as ownership, yet the possessive pronoun will also be present in those constructions using féin:

ábalta a rá lena bpobal féin \n able to say to their own community
compound(bpobal, féin)
le bean Choilm \n with Colm's wife
compound(bean, Choilm)
