      Yep, I haven't got it down, after almost 70 years.
      Irish grammar reminds me of a verbal dance.
      Don't count on American/English - based things, like spellings, punctuation, pronunciation, none of it.
      The structure of the language, should be studied from a totally neutral view of the subject
      Think of it as a blank slate, then make in an Irish way. ☘

    Here is a rare original irish clan name of Fay to cover.

    • @CoatofArmsDatabase
      @CoatofArmsDatabase  Před 2 lety +1

      Interesting, I've never run into that name before. Wikipedia states "Fay is an Irish surname. The name derives from the Norman surname "de Fae" which was introduced to Ireland in the 12th century. It is commonly found in counties Westmeath, Cavan and Monaghan. The native Gaelic surnames Ó Fiaich and Ó Fathaigh are also anglicised as Fay."
      There are some Fay coats of arms from France, but here is the blazon for FAE of Normandy - D'or, à trois feuilles de houx de sinople.
      Or (yellow or gold) 3 leaves of holly Vert (green).

      @@karenfay4545 I will try to fix that, sorry. Regarding the coat of arms you describe, it is for the O'FAHEY (Gaelic: Ó Fathaigh) family of Ireland that pre-dated the Normans. Fay is a different name derived from the de Fae family of Normandy. However, the native Gaelic surname Ó Fataighh is sometimes Anglicized as Fay. Clear as mud?
