Adjectives of one syllable
only are prefixed to their nouns and
when prefixed the noun is aspirated but
It is more correct to write Allt na Gualainn Uaine
than Allt na h-Uaine Ghualainn
[Pencil notes pertaining to the name "ALLT NA GUALAINN UAINE" in the List of Names column]
Allt na Gualainn Uaine
Uaine being an adjective of two syllables does not
sound well before Gualainn and
but if the adjective is prefixed the noun must
be aspirated.
