Irish spelling

edit

The title of the article (An Comhdháil na Múinteoirí le Rincí Gaelacha) is incorrect. Irish allows only one occurrence of a definite article in a noun phrase, so while the short title is An Chomhdháil (The Congress - comhdháil being a feminine noun means that it should be lenited after the definite article), the longer title should be Comhdháil na Múinteoirí le Rincí Gaelacha, as the plural definite article na is already present in front of múinteoirí (teachers).

@PaddyMatthews: Thanks for that, I wondered if it might be wrong but couldn't find anyone appropriate to ask. Will move it now. Triptothecottage (talk) 04:12, 20 December 2017 (UTC)Reply
@Triptothecottage: No problems - I corrected the spelling of An Chomhdháil in the article as the website seems to refer to it that way even if the logo shows the incorrect variant.PaddyMatthews (talk) 05:34, 20 December 2017 (UTC)Reply
