•Toponymic'k
So, what is actually in the name?
Well, if one was doing the family
tree of a word and its hereditary
background, we would refer to
the department of etymology. It
is here we find its root often Latin
or Greek, but in the case of this
•title, it is Irish. BUT, the Oxford
dictionary removed the K after
The Good Friday Agreement so
as to nurture good relations with
with historical adversaries. It is
now officially Toponymic and it
means coming from a place that
is associated with the name. For
example Tullamore Dew is often
in error confused with Irish Mist
but when the English suffer from
foggy weather they always attribute
it to the Irish Cloud Factories, that is
because " Where west, each wind is
born, mischievous Gaels, with pots
of vapoured broth, disperse its brew
and laced with ancient potions concoct
a drape to cloak the Saxon horde " yes
we still employ Druid Chefs because no
matter what those British ******* do
they will never be able to stop the wind
that shakes the barley as long as they're
on the wrong side of the Emerald Isle.
