Thread Name: Meaning of 'seanmas'- Gaelic?
Subject: RE: Meaning of 'seanmas'- Gaelic?
Allison:

I just checked in my Collins Irish-English Dictionary and could find no such listing. The word "sean" without an accent over the "a" means old. Maybe it's a corruption of an Irish word based on a phonetic sounding.

Sorry I couldn't help, maybe someone with more knowledge of the language can help.
