Search Results - Gaels

Type in a word or phrase to search, you can also type in Article ID's separated by commas:

Irish, Scottish Gaelic, Manx

The Gaels are an ethno-linguistic group which originated in Ireland and subsequently spread to Scotland and the Isle of Man. They are speakers of the Goidelic (or Gaelic) languages – Irish, Scottish Gaelic and Manx.[9] The Gaelic languages are a branch of the Insular Celtic languages, the other branch of Insular Celtic is Brythonic.

There are many people with Gaelic ancestry amongst the populations of the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and the UK. Many US, Canadian, Australian, and British leaders have been from families of Gaelic origin, as are many members of the parliaments of those respective countries today.

Consequently, a British term such as Guoidel may, like the word Scottus, have referred specifically to the Gael. The Old Irish form Goídel has changed to modern Irish Gael and modern Scottish Gàidheal in Gaelic.

1. 9 Halloween Gifts For Your Favorite Trick Or Treaters
October 26, 2009

Halloween is a fun holiday celebrated on the night of October 31st. Children will dress in their favorite costumes and go trick-or-treating for candies. These activities can be traced back to the ancient Celtic festival known as Samhain, which was a celebration of the end of the harvest season. The ancient Gaels believed that on October 31st, the boundary between the alive and the dead disappeared, and the dead became dangerous to the living by causing problems such as sickness or damaged crops. Costumes and masks were worn at the festival to mimic the evil spirits to placate them. Because... (read more)

2. Scotlands appeal
September 15, 2009

The name Scotland derives from the Latin word Scoti, which is a term applied to Gaels, natives of Scotland and Ireland, made up of pirates and also people coming from Ireland to live in Dalriada Northwest area in Scotland, not to for example Picts. Correspondingly, the Latin word Scotia, meaning land of the Gaels and was first used as a word for Ireland. However, by the 11th century at the latest, Scotia was being used to refer to (Gaelic-speaking) Scotland north of the river Forth, alongside Albania or Albany, both derived from the Gaelic Alba. The use of the words Scots and Scotland to encom... (read more)

4. The Origins of Whiskey
August 12, 2008

Whiskey is a powerful drink and whiskey is a powerful word-possibly because both are of Irish origin. The English articulation of the word in use today is based upon a word the earliest Gaels applied to the result of their stills, for it appears they were the primary whiskey-makers. The name they gave the distilled spirit was singularly fitting-they called it "uisgebeatha." If we scrutinize the word we find that "uisge" (pronounced oosh'gee) means "water," "beatha" means "life," and the two combined mean "water of life." All of which goes to establish that nobody can beat the Irish for ... (read more)
