[Loch-soilleir] RE: Loch-solleir Q and A

Thu Apr 1 20:54:19 PST 2004

Oh, for goodness sakes!  As Mom used to say - look it up!

>From my daughter's French-English dictionary:
Clear - (transparent) clair, limpide
Lake - lac

>From my Gaelic (Irish) dictionary:
Clear - (adj) glan, (of speech) soileir (e has an accent)
Lake - loch

So Loch Soileir means "clear-speaking lake".  Whoops!

Now the only 2 questions to bother Baron Bors with are:
1.  Did the founders do that on purpose?
2. Are we STILL mispelling it?
