ADDITIONS AND CORRECTIONS.


P. 1. Add to (1), “In pronouncing F slender, some speakers touch the lower lip with the upper teeth and force out the breath between the lips at the same time. The sound thus produced is more accurately described as bi-labial than as labio-dental.”

P. 3. Add to (3) “see note to p. 162.” The words representing sounds on this and some of the following pages should have been printed with all letters in italics.

P. 4. In (5) after the word “substituted” insert “in almost all cases.”

P. 5. End of first paragraph, add, “Nasal also heard when o becomes u because of proximity to n (but not m). See note p. 146 and under adj. slán.”

P.6. After (9) insert reference to pronunciation of 16. See introduction to Verbs (2), ráḋ, and p. 44 note.

P. 12. After studaor insert “(or stuidéar)”.

P. 17. Put in brackets last sentence at foot.

P. 36. After Léiṫi insert “or Léiṫe.”

P. 44. Add note to Preposition um, “Some speakers still use um freely, see under verb cuir (end). The word should not be allowed to die out.”

P. 45. Below le hais read do for de.

P. 82. Under Doṁnaċ read Ḃraiṫ for Ḃreaṫ.

Besides the above, there are some few errors of a purely typographical kind, which will not give rise to any ambiguity.
