Aimsir na C\u00e1sca Shona!<\/em><\/p><\/div>\n

Since An Ch\u00e1isc<\/strong> is so early (chomh luath<\/strong>) this year (i mbliana<\/strong>), we’re interrupting the green beer-green bagel-green river thread to offer an Easter topic.\u00a0 We’ll resume the St. Patrick’s Day (L\u00e1 Fh\u00e9ile P\u00e1draig<\/strong>) follow-up shortly.\u00a0 For this blog, we’ll deal with the terminology of\u00a0 “Aimsir na C\u00e1sca<\/strong>” (the Easter season OR\u00a0Eastertide).\u00a0 Here, the word “aimsir<\/strong>” is used in the general since of “time,” not its more typical meaning of “weather” (cf. Spanish “tiempo<\/em>“).\u00a0 This is actually the second blog around for “Aimsir na C\u00e1sca<\/strong>,” hence an teideal<\/strong> “redux” (nasc don ch\u00e9ad bhlag<\/strong>:\u00a0https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/irish\/aimsir-na-casca\/<\/a>)<\/p>\n

Other Transparent Language Irish Blogs have dealt with t\u00e9arma\u00ed C\u00e1sca<\/strong>, on subjects ranging from uibheacha C\u00e1sca, C\u00e1isc na nGi\u00fadach, coin\u00edn na C\u00e1sca, coin\u00edn\u00ed seacl\u00e1ide, agus bilbithe seacl\u00e1ide<\/strong>, as well as the linguistic history of the word “C\u00e1isc<\/strong>” itself. \u00a0A few of the other blogs, just to jog your memory, can be found at:<\/p>\n

You might be wondering about the term “naofa<\/strong>,” which could apply to three of these days.\u00a0 An bhfuil a fhios agat c\u00e9 acu<\/strong>?\u00a0 As for the term “C\u00e9adaoin an Spiaire<\/strong>” as opposed to “C\u00e9adaoin Naofa<\/strong>,” please check out another blag C\u00e1sca<\/strong> from last year, which discusses the terminology, regarding the Irish and the English languages: https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/irish\/laethanta-na-seachtaine-laethanta-aimsir-na-casca\/<\/a> (4 Aibre\u00e1n 2012<\/strong>).\u00a0 For this matching exercise, I tried to get as much variety in as possible, so I looked for \u00a0traditional terms other than “naofa<\/strong>.”\u00a0 Beannachta\u00ed na C\u00e1sca oraibh! – R\u00f3isl\u00edn<\/strong><\/p>\n
