leathann

leithne & leatha, a. Broad. 2 Spacious. “Leathann ri leathann is caol ri caol,” broad to broad and narrow to narrow, an important rule observed by most writers of Gaelic and which prescribes that the vowels next before and next after any given consonant in any given word shall be either both broad or both narrow, unless divided by a hyphen. Many of the past participles of verbs do not conform to this rule, but they are the only exception. [MacBain spells leathann leathan].
