- This is taken from the booklet published by The Irish Book Company in 1901 with the title Aibitir na Gaedhilge ó láimh Nórma Bhórtuic (illustrated by Norma Borthwick).
For the letter E, she has the drawing of a bird spelled eun, for S - smeura (blackberries) and for T - teine (fire). Are these correct spellings or is this way these words were spelled at the time, or perhaps they belong to a certain dialect? She doesn't use any definite articles either, which seems strange.
It's available from the Fenian Collection at the Catholic University of America in pdf format.
eu = éa
