Is this a correctly punctuated sentence?



In English there is a test whether an adjective is a "coordinate" adjective. See https://kristenstieffel.com/when-to-use ... djectives/ :



I'm not sure that English rules or usages apply to Irish, and I don't want "piocaithe beárrtha" to have a comma (maybe they are adjectives "from the same category"), but what about "cúmtha, córach, cothaithe, cumasach, dea-chroicin"? These are all from the same category too, right, but I'm wondering if you can have as many as 5 adjectives without a comma?

I've realised the rule must be the same as in English, and so these adjectives are coordinate.

Why must the rule be the same as in English?

I think a lot of orthographic aspects of Modern Irish were still unsettled at the time that the Caighdeán Oifigiúil was first produced. I don't know if the CO even covers this kind of thing, but if it did I'd suspect it's the only such prescriptive source for Irish punctuation. I imagine a corpus based analysis of writings from the early 20th century would be inconclusive, not least because I suspect there was no one rule followed by any majority of native speakers when writing, but because I doubt editors would have respected their punctuation choices anyhow when reprinting and publishing such writings.

One of my biggest pet peeves is the frequency with which modern editors apply not only modern punctuation, but modern English punctuation and capitalisation to Old and Middle Irish texts, and still refer to the resulting works as "diplomatic editions".

I think that it Irish it applies more to the rythm of speech rather than the perscribed rules as are laid out in English, at least in this case.
