Just to add, NW Donegal Irish uses bhuam, bhuaid, bhuaidh etc. also.


but not pronounced the same way at all...

Scottish vuəm, vuəht, vuəjə, vuəjhpə, vuəɲ.....
Donegal wiəm, wiətʲ/dʲ, wiə, wiəhi, wieɲ...

They also pronounce "bhuam" etc in Munster, right? with the v- sounds as in Scots Gaelic this time.

They still use both the familiar and formal way to address people in Gaelic.
Whereas that is not used in Irish anymore.
I don't know if a Gaelic speaker would be offended if spoken to familiarly if the polite was more appropriate.

I'm wondering what in heaven's name the OP means by "which sounds more mysterious." :dhera:
