GUEST,Martin Ryan Gaelic/Irish: the word fulachtadh (13) RE: Gaelic/Irish: the word fulachtadh 17 Nov 19

Dineen, the standard early 20C. dictionary of Irish gives "seething" as the sole meaning for "fulachtadh" and relates it to "fulacht", with a number of cooking-related senses.

The next word in Dineen is "fulachtain" meaning "tolerant, long-suffering".

So Mumford Jones appears to be on the money, alright.
