[Notes]
Bar-liath
The plural article, but the an is scarcely ever heard in the pronunciation therefore let it be elided & mark the omission by an apostrophe
"Barr-liath" or "Bar-liath" [note] Grey topped
Tighna'bocan one word
Tigh nam bocan pronounced Tigh na bocan
Tigh-an bhocan The bogle's house
Tighna'bocan - The Bogles' House
Tigh-na'-bocan [note] The bogle's house
Tigh-na-bocan is better than Tigh-an-bocan. Tigh-an-bocan is a form of words, that would not be used by any Gaelic scholar Therefore it is much better leave it as given by the authorities or use the apostrophe for the Elision of the letter m
