 School of Celtic Studies - The Irish of Tourmakeady, Co. Mayo: a phonemic study
In this study an attempt is made to provide a phonemic inventory of the dialect of Tourmakeady; to examine its structure in the light of modern phonemics on the one hand, and by comparison with early modern Irish on the other.
Tourmakeady itself, although the scene of strong anglicizing efforts by landlords and others in the 19th century, was entirely Irish-speaking at the beginning of this century, when an Irish college was established there.
Irish is still a living language there, though the circumstances accompanying its use are changing at an ominous rate: many customs, pastimes, and beliefs, that were once part and parcel of the Irish speaker's world, are now moribund; and the innovations that replace them frequently involve foreign phrases and an alien vocabulary.
