POW
Just a thought but we had a "Dainty Davey" thread where "curly pow" was a point of discussion and the pow wow centred on the meaning of pow which seemed to be hair or forehead. My point is it was a Scots dielect discussion.
Is "pow" a good Irish dielect word too? Is is particularly a Donegal word?
Don't wish to create a POWer struggle mind!!!

of course the folk process and plagiarism, and the lottery that is folk collecting rather diffuses any definitive discussion.

I have heard a very learned musical historian state that "Molly Malone" was not a 15th c Dub, so she wasn't. The author was reckoned Scottish (Glasga) and even given name. With the usual caveat - "most probably"

A far more contentious subject but relevant to some points above.
