variations/pronunciation of Sine
I'm wondering if Sine (Irish/Gaelic, feminine) is ever spelled with an accent on the e, so that it is pronounced shin-ay instead of shee-na, and if so, does this change the meaning? On some sites i've seen it with no accent at all, meaning given as 'god is gracious', or 'god's gracious gift'. How would that be pronounced? Any info is much appreciated!
