Talk:tapadh le

RFV discussion: April–July 2022
Irish. The term, if it existed in Irish, would be in non-standard pre-reform orthography (the standard would have tapa instead), the historical corpus RIA finds no instances of tapadh leat or tapadh libh, and I believe in general this is not a phrase used in Irish. I believe the author who created it mistook the Scottish Gaelic phrase for Irish (the first version had the Sc. Gaelic sense ‘thank you’).

There are Scottish Gaelic entries and  and tapadh le could exist as a base uniflected entry for the Scottish Gaelic sense – but then similar phrases in Irish like  /  are also in their inflected 2nd sg./pl. forms, not bare.

Dinneen’s dictionary (pre-reform spelling) notes tapadh ort ‘good speed to you’ in Torr (subdialect of Ulster Irish), but I can’t find tapadh leat or anything similar in Irish dictionaries or corpora. // Silmeth @talk 14:52, 22 April 2022 (UTC)


 * This seems to be failed to me. Should I proceed somehow myself? (can’t just simply remove the whole entry myself since it’s the only one on the page) // Silmeth @talk 11:18, 4 July 2022 (UTC)
