[Facts] Need help with a few Irish pronounciations.
Can anyone help?IsibéalMadailéinMonat - is this said how it looks?Nóirín - is this said like Noreen?Róis - is this said like Rosh or ROW-sh?Lasairiona - are there and accent marks for this name? It was in a book i have (and the book doesn't use accent marks..). It also said it's pronounced like lah-sa-REE-nah - is this right?Thanks! Shelby

Nóirín is pronounced the same as Noreen.Lasairíona is Lass-ar-EE-na. As you can see there is an fada on the second i. It's also spelt Lasairfhíona.I think the others have been covered.
