Gaelic Names of Plants
[DA 1] <eng> GAELIC NAMES OF PLANTS [DA 2] “I study to bring forth some acceptable work: not striving to shew any rare invention that passeth a man’s capacity, but to utter and receive matter of some moment known and talked of long ago, yet over long hath been buried, and, as it seemed, lain dead, for any fruit it hath shewed in the memory of man.”—Churchward, 1588. [DA 3] GAELIC NAMES OE PLANTS (SCOTTISH AND IRISH) COLLECTED AND ARRANGED IN SCIENTIFIC ORDER, WITH NOTES ON THEIR ETYMOLOGY, THEIR USES, PLANT SUPERSTITIONS, ETC., AMONG THE CELTS, WITH COPIOUS GAELIC, ENGLISH, AND SCIENTIFIC INDICES BY JOHN CAMERON SUNDERLAND “WHAT’S IN A NAME? THAT WHICH WE CALL A ROSE BY ANY OTHER NAME WOULD SMELL AS SWEET.” —Shakespeare. WILLIAM BLACKWOOD AND SONS EDINBURGH AND LONDON MDCCCLXXXIII All Rights reserved [DA 4] [Blank] [DA 5] TO J. BUCHANAN WHITE, M.D., F.L.S. WHOSE LIFE HAS BEEN DEVOTED TO NATURAL SCIENCE, AT WHOSE SUGGESTION THIS COLLECTION OF GAELIC NAMES OF PLANTS WAS UNDERTAKEN, This Work IS RESPECTFULLY INSCRIBED BY THE AUTHOR. [DA 6] [Blank] [DA 7] PREFACE. THE Gaelic Names of Plants, reprinted from a series of articles in the ‘Scottish Naturalist,’ which have appeared during the last four years, are published at the request of many who wish to have them in a more convenient form. There might, perhaps, be grounds for hesitation in obtruding on the public a work of this description, which can only be of use to comparatively few; but the fact that no book exists containing a complete catalogue of Gaelic names of plants is at least some excuse for their publication in this separate form. -

This process enables an extended learning process and The outdoors environment is a key learning space, as it is results in higher personal realisations and inter-personal within this environment that the intensity of the Scouting skills.

Scottish Place-Name News No. 24

The small cairn is on Arthur’s Seat, a ridge of Hart Fell, whose broad top is to the left of this view over the smooth south-west flank of Swatte Fell to cliffs on White Coomb and, to their right, the twin tops of the transparently named Saddle Yoke. The instances of fell are within the Dumfriesshire and Galloway territory of this element, with few outliers farther north or east, as discussed inside in an article on ‘Gaelic and Scots in Southern Hill Names’. White Coomb may be named after the snow-bearing qualities of a coomb or ‘hollow in a mountain-side’ in its south-east face. Hart Fell and White Coomb are the same on William Crawford’s Dumfriesshire map of 1804, but Saddle Yoke is Saddleback and Swatte Fell is Swaw Fell, making it more doubtful that Swatte represents swart, referring to the long stretch of very dark cliffs on the far side.

Acting as convener ol the Scottish Committee for that event, the editor found that there was in existence no list of persons who took an acti^•p interest in such matters, either in Scotland or in any of the other Celtic countries. His resolve to meet this want was cordially approved by the lenxlers of tlie Congress circulars were issued to all wlrose addresses could be discovered, and these were invited to suggest the n-iines of others who ought to be included.

Opening Statement of Ms. Aisling Kelly, Chairperson, Scouting Ireland
Opening Statement of Ms. Aisling Kelly, Chairperson, Scouting Ireland at the Joint Oireachtas Committee on Children and Youth Affairs. 21st November 2018 Mr Chairman Thank you and thanks to the Committee for inviting Scouting Ireland to appear before you again. My name is Aisling Kelly, I have been an adult Scout volunteer for 23 years, previously I was a youth member of Girl Guiding from the age of 9. I am accompanied by Mr. Adrian Tennant, Director of Scouting Ireland, Miss Lisa Barnes, Director of Scouting Ireland, and who resides in Northern Ireland, Dr. John Lawlor, CEO of Scouting Ireland and Mr. Ian Elliott, an independent Safeguarding Consultant, who has been working with us as the interim Safeguarding Manager. I want to tell you about the progress which Scouting Ireland has made since the last time the organisation appeared before you on 9th May 2018. I want to outline too, the challenges we face. When we last appeared before this Committee, an apology was offered for the hurt that has been caused as a result of poor practice on the part of those involved in Scouting. Some of this occurred many years ago but the effects are still causing distress today. I want to reiterate that apology and add to it our sincere regret for what has happened, and our absolute determination to learn from those mistakes and make Scouting Ireland today as safe an environment as we can create for all of our members. To that end, we have made many positive changes in our structure and our approach to Governance. -
