trí

  2. three
Usage notes
edit
  • May be used with nouns in both the singular and plural; the singular is more common in general, but the plural must be used with units of measurement and the like. Triggers lenition of nouns in the singular and h-prothesis of nouns in the plural:
  • trí chat ― three cats
  • trí troithe ― three feet
  • trí héin ― three birds
  • When used with the definite article, the definite article is always in the plural. When used with adjectives, the adjective is also in the plural and is always lenited after nouns in the singular; after nouns in the plural, the adjective only lenites after slender consonants:
  • trí chapall bhána ― three white horses
  • na trí eaglais mhóra ― the three big churches
But:
  • trí capaill bhána ― three white horses
  • na trí heaglaisí móra ― the three big churches
  • When referring to human beings, the personal form triúr is used.
