A Rathlin Folktale

-

The most complete recording of spoken Rathlin Irish is of a tale recited by Domhnall Mac Mhuitcheartaigh, or Deniel McCurdy. The tale is known as "The Story about the Bannock".


The audio of this recording is hosted at Yudu Express:


A transcript of the recording can be found on the Irish language blog Rámás Béaróide.


Another version of the story can be found on page 152 of  The Irish language in Rathlin Island, Co. Antrim (Royal Irish Academy, 1942).

Sa phostáil seo, féachaim próiseas figh crios ar an chos a thaisean, fríd Gaedhilg Reachraidh. Chan mise sean-chleaichte aig an figheadoireacht, nó aig an Gaedhilg, mar sin fáilte roimh ceartaidhean.
