Taoiseach/Talk

This is little more than a dictionary entry. If I remember correctly, they term has a history going back to the Celts. Does anyone want to expand on this? John Lynch

Also, I think Gaelic words deserve some pronunciation guides, e.g., I THINK that this is pronounced tee-sach(k). Also, is the Taoiseach the head of the Dail (needs an accent mark and pronounced Dial)? J Hofmann Kemp

Good idea. As a start I added pronounciations for Taoiseach, Dáil, and Fine Gael. My Irish is a bit rusty so if there are any gaelgeori out there, please check my attempts at English spelling of the pronounciations. --Eob

I've a sneeking suspicion my Irish is even rustier than yours ... last class (Leaving Cert!) was in 1985 ... in any case, so far you're doing fine :) John Lynch
