  • 3sg. fem. (conj.), í (disj.)

Prepositions

Ag

Ag has two forms:

  1. The form it takes in general, where it has been replaced by its conjugated form in the masculine 3rd person singular, aige. [note 5]
  2. The form it takes when preceding verbal nouns where it remains as ag.

aige + clitic

Aige combinations with the article:

  • aige + an = aige 'n
  • aige + na = aige sna

Aige combinations with possessive adjectives:

  • aige + mo = aige m'
  • aige + do + vowel = aige t' (SCD1 p. 8)
  • aige + do + consonant = aige d' (SCD1 p. 8)
  • aige + a = aige n-a
  • aige + ár = aige n-ár
  • aige + úr = aige n-úr

Aige combined with the numeral particle:

  • aige + a = aige n-a
