Greetings! WE DEEPLY APPRECIATE YOUR VISIT. A polite caution before viewing our site -- We carefully edit these pages in Netscape Composer, which is all that we were once allowed on this server. Now that other editing resources are available, we are entirely too far into this to change quickly, and haven't had time to learn the new programming software. If you view our site through browsers other than Netscape, it is common that formatting, colors, graphics and fonts are corrupted, as well as some animated features do not function! This site is programmed in the latest upgrade of NETSCAPE COMPOSER via Qwest.net 640Kb DSL to pixel screen display. . may appear to be corrupted unless your platform uses Windows 98© Second Edition, or later. . Site is located on Gonzaga University's IMEX Server. Again -- we appreciate
your visit and hope that perhaps we'll hear from you!

Often under severe time constraints, this site is maintained "on-the-fly" (but often!), and therefore may contain some minor typographical, editorial or informational errors, until later editing sessions, at which time they should be corrected. However, if you feel we've consistently overlooked something, or have our facts scrambled, just lay it on us!! We have broad Celtic shoulders!! |
When translating from Gaelic into English, both C and K are correctly pronounced with a hard K sound. It is therefore only correct to pronounce CELTS as if spelled KELTS. Indeed, some translators to English spell it that way.
Other examples are:
By intelligently pronouncing
these and similar words, you show rudimentary civility and respect toward
this great culture, its traditions, its modern adherents, and to the countless
contributions all have made to the enrichment of humankind over the centuries.
