#1 | The Letter V
from Motherfoclóir · host HeadStuff Podcasts
The People Vs. The Letter V The traditional Irish alphabet had 18 letters, but in the 20th century, there was a gradual thawing of attitudes to the other eight, such as V. However, a very vocal vanguard view V as a villainous visitor to the vernacular vocabulary. In this episode, Darach is joined by Gearóidín, Peadar and Siún and they discuss the controversial letter. It’s a tale of political intrigue (and quacking ducks). --- Contact the show at https://twitter.com/motherfocloir or email us at [email protected]. Learn more about your ad choices.
