Thanks for nothing, Brendy. I have the grace to admit that I misremembered something and you can't accept it ! Oh, Please !! Where has debate and courtesy got to ? And you accuse ME of miscalling "Derry" !! If you must try to use the Erse name for the place, you could at least do the few speakers of that moribund tongue the courtesy of spelling the name correctly. May I beg leave to spell it for you once more ? "Doire Cholm Cille". Got it ?
Kevin Mc Grath's remarks:-
"Incidentally,if you spell it Doire or Derry it's the same name, just a different spelling convention - just as if you spell my name Caiohmghen or Kevin, it's the same name. And there's several other ways of spelling Trevor as well" You may well chose to spell your name in the manner above, but I doubt very much if any Erse speaker(at least those few who can read)would recognise it. I take it you are trying to emulate the SF Teachta Dála who spells it in the archaic form "Caoimhghín". Please, if you cannot get the details right, what hope for the important items ? "He who contemneth small things shall fall by little and little."
I should be interested in alternative spellings of "Trevor".
Trevor.
