AR.
Ar (er) combined with the personal pronouns gives the following forms: orm or rum, on me; ort, on thee; air (er), on him; uirṫe (er″heh), on her; orṫainn (ur″hing), on us; oraiḃ, on ye; orṫa, on them. Orainn and orra, also heard.
Ar, followed by a noun without the article, aspirates. Occasionally the aspiration is neglected, e g., some say ar tír a’s an fairrge, and others ar ṫír a’s ar fairrge, and others ar ṫír a’s ar ḟairrge, perhaps the second form is the more common.
Ar, followed by the article and a noun in the singular, eclipses. Occasionally a noun beginning with t resists eclipsis.
| 1. Ḃí sé ar buille ḋear″ag ċuġat (chooth). | He was grievously annoyed with you. |
| Nuair (ner) ḃí sé ar a ċiall. | When he was in his right mind. |
