GAELIC GRAMMAR. 17
Conjunctions are words that connect the parts of a
Sentence. Conjunction means to join together.
Bha sith agus sonas aige. Dh'amhairc e mun cuairt
agus mhothaich e buidheann ghaolach ann an deireadh
na kiinge agus ghabh e g' an ionnsuidh. Thainig an
t-am ach cha robh esan ri f haotainn.
Interjections are expressions of emotion, as —
! Oh ! Oich ! Puth ! Ubh Ubh ! &c.
Interjections have no governing connection
with the other parts of a Sentence.

Proper, and Abstract.
