INTRODUCTION
'HE information contained in the following list of Northem-
JL Irish place-names was collected by Mr. G. L. Marshall, the
B.B.C. Regional Director for Northern Ireland, and a local committee
consisting of the following: Professor R. M. Henry, Litt.D.
{Chairman}, Captain R. L. Henderson, Charles E. Kerr, B.A., John
J. Marshall, M.A. The results of this committee’s work were then
sent to London for consideration by the Secretary of the Advisory
Committee on Spoken English, who prepared the phonetic transcrip-
tion and the modified spelling on the basis of the information
supplied from Belfast. Both phonetic transcription and modified
spelling are in harmony with the principles adopted in the previous
handbooks of this series.
It is unfortunate that there exists no authoritative account of
the dialects of Northern Ireland on the fines of the excellent reference
books used in the compilation of the Scottish and Welsh place-name
booklets. Certain general characteristics, however, are sufficiently
well known from observation to be adopted; for example the r is
pronounced wherever it appears in the orthography; the Southern
English diphthongs [ei] and [ou] are replaced as in the other Celtic-
speaking countries by [e:] and [ox].
This tentative transcription has been adopted with some reserve.
If it serves no other purpose than that of stimulating discussion or,
indeed, than that of providing a starting-point for further research,
it will be definitely useful. In the meantime, it may be regarded
as furnishing an approximate account of the pronunciation of some
Irish place-names.
I wish in conclusion to express my very sincere appreciation on
behalf of the Advisory Committee on Spoken English of the excellent
work done by Mr. Marshall and his committee, without whose help
the publication of this little handbook would have been rendered
very much more difficult.

THE INTERNATIONAL PHONETIC ALPHABET
AS ADAPTED FOR
THE REPRESENTATION OF THE PRONUNCIATION OF
THE PLACE-NAMES OF NORTHERN IRELAND
VOWELS
Long vowels are indicated by the sign i
i:
see.
i
ei
e
e:
as in big.
as in day.
as in get.
as in there.
a as m man.
a: as in hard.
o as in not.
o:
as m saw, more.
oi as in no.
u as in look.
u: as in too.
a: as in burn, fir, confer, earn.
a the unaccented vowel as in the first syllable of above.
DIPHTHONGS
ai as in my.
au as in now.
oi as in boy.
ia as in near.
ua as in poor.
SEMIVOWELS
j as in yes.
w as in well.
CONSONANTS
b, d, f, g (as in get), h, k, 1, m, n, p, r, s, t, v, z, have their normal
values. It must be remembered that r is invariably pronounced
in Ireland.
5
g the sound of ng in singer.
0 the sound of th in thick.
d the sound of th in then.
J the sound of sh in she, ss in mission, etc.
3 the sound of s in -pleasure.
the sound of ch in church.
dj the sound of j and dge in judge.
x the sound of ch in loch.
The Irish pronunciation of English always differenti-
ates between w and wh; the phonetic symbols [hw]
are used for the Irish pronunciation of words written
with wh.
STRESS ACCENT
The stress accent is marked with the sign 1 before the stressed
syllable.
THE MODIFIED SPELLING
The modified spelling explains itself, but it may be as well to point
out that ‘ch’ stands for the final sound of loch, and ‘th’ stands for
the initial sound of thin.
