crupaim
|
crupaim is intransitive and is differentiated from crapaim above, which is transitive and means 'to contract, retract, withdraw': a' crupadh le aois, shrinkin with age; tá na nóiníní a' crupadh isteach leis a' driúchta, the daisies are closing up under the dew. The two participles are combined to form one of those 'twin' constructions which are so expressive and common in the dialect: crupthaí crapthaí, strangled and bent under weight of curach carrying it up on to the shingle beach shrink | focailfholaithe | Log in to hear | |
