The Irish language (Gaeilge) was the Celtic Human language originating in the Earth region of Ireland. Irish was one of three modern Gaelic languages, a subgroup of Celtic, including Scottish Gaelic and Manx.
Irish language signage was used in the holodeck village of Fair Haven. (VOY: "Fair Haven", "Spirit Folk").
For example:
- Cuan Soineanta: fair (weather) harbor / refuge. Irish name for town of Fair Haven
- Oifig an Phoist: post office
- Fáilte: welcome, on sign outside pub
- Fáilte a Thaistealaí Thuirseach: Welcome Weary Traveler.
This is the rendition using modern Roman type, however the sign uses traditional Gaelic type and therefore replaces 'ch' with 'ċ', i.e. 'c overdot'. See also Irish orthography#Diacritics at Wikipedia for more information.
- Siopa Búistéara: butcher's shop
