Obs. — From the idea of the qualities of a thing resting
on the substance, another kindred view is common among
Gaelic speakers, namely, that oneself is placed " on" some-
thing, as " on board," " on surface,'' nay, " on " an abstract
state or quality — as " on madness," Aif\ btnle; in a frolic
aij\ rm^e; drunk, ai|\ meif^e, &c. See aijv bAll, A1]\ bic.
Note. — If the phrases with aij\, on, are used in an adver-
bial sense, and with a wide meaning, the initial consonant
of the noun is not aspirated after Aip ; as, aij\ bÁf\]\, on top.
