clois

== Irish == === Etymology === From Middle Irish cloistid, apparently a conflation of coistid (“is silent, listens”) with clúas (“hearing”). Coistid is a late form of Old Irish con·túaisi. Cognate with Manx clasht and Scottish Gaelic claist. The past tense forms are suppletive and originally belonged to cluin, itself from Old Irish ro·cluinethar. === Pronunciation === IPA(key): /klˠɔʃ/ (Aran) IPA(key): /klɨʃ/ (Cois Fharraige) IPA(key): /kl̪ˠʊʃ/ === Verb === clois (present analytic cloiseann, future analytic cloisfidh, verbal noun cloisteáil, past participle cloiste) (Munster, parts of Connacht) to hear ==== Conjugation ==== ==== Synonyms ==== cluin (Ulster; parts of Connacht) === Mutation === === References === === Further reading === Dinneen, Patrick S.
